Did I Just Hear Remy Right?

I don’t know if you are out enjoying another hot, summery day, or listening to the radio, or what, but if you aren’t watching the Red Sox/Reds game this afternoon, you missed something I consider pretty telling. Red Sox color commentator Jerry Remy is doing the National Broadcast this afternoon, and he said he spoke to injured DH David Ortiz a couple of days ago and Big Papi said he still feels clicking in that wrist.

Now the Sox said Ortiz could play with clicking so long as there wasn’t pain (or too much pain). But Remy seems skeptical that the Big Bopper will be back at all, let alone anytime soon. Does he have more inside information than us, considering he’s with the team every day? Or is he just speculating? Only RemDawg knows. If Ortiz can’t return, what do you think that does to the Sox’s chances? Can they win the Division without him? More importantly, can they win a title without him? Don’t hesitate to get involved and get the comment section on this blog cooking.
