Freaking Kipnis has 3 home runs in 3 career games at Fenway.

I should've Nancy Kerrigan'd the kid when I had the chance.:th_coffee:

Either that, or the Red Sox should have traded for him. At this pace, he would hit at least 81 home runs per year, presumably without the help of either the clear or the cream.

Unfortunately, he plays second base, and we already have a decent player from Arizona State holding down that position.
