Batting primarily out of the three-spot in David Ortiz's absence, J.D. Drew has been on an absolute tear of late. The center of much controversy last year due to his $14 million per year salary, Drew has been worth the green this season with a .324 BA (team-high), 10 HR, 37 RBI and 46 R (team-high) thanks to an absurdly productive June. Ortiz has been out since May 31st with a partially torn tendon sheath in his left wrist and while it's impossible to replace someone like him in the lineup, J.D. is certainly helping Sox fans cope with the loss of the "Large Father" for the time being.
