Re: I see your Alan Embree....
I don't think it's just you.
I don't mind so much if I thought he was just going to be used to get a few lefties out and that's it. I'm not familiar with the prospects involved. But I heard Francona on TV last night talking about his "effective cutter against righties," saying that Stanton had been effective against righties "in certain spots," and they would have to try to find those spots on the fly. That doesn't sound good to me. I look at his #'s vs righties this year and don't want to see him face one. Granted, I haven't seen him pitch much.
He may just be here for Giambi.
