Projecting Papi
I saw that the Red Sox signed Big Papi through 2010. So, I decided to go to the Sabermetric Baseball Encyclopedia to run a comp on David Ortiz. This is what I found:
Is Big Papi the next "Pops" Stargell? As a Yankees fan, I'd rather see his career go the George Foster route.
It's foolish to predict which way he goes (for certain) - but, at the least, it's nice to know that it's not impossible for him to slip off his (present) game.
