You think maybe Francona would pull him for defensive purposes in a situation where it counted? Right now he can cost you 3 games and it won't matter.
Let's say, late October, early November, game 6 of the Series, and the Sox have a two run lead on the Mets (we can always dream). Do you think Francona pulls a Johnny Mac and leaves Pena out there for the 9th?
Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
The Sox would need somebody to put in for him assuming Crisp and Drew are already out there, game 6 of the series and Willie Mo is out there (Manny must be dead) then Hinske is your defensive replacement They don't need Willie Mo's bat they need a true 4th outfielder who can replace Crisp if he gets banged up. How about trading Willie Mo, Hinske and a pitching prospect for Ichiro and let Crisp be the 4th outfielder
