J.D. Drew - Underpaid, Underappreciated?

An interesting and enlightening article by Amalie Benjamin in today's Boston Globe about Boston Red Sox outfielder, J.D. Drew. A quiet Georgian who doesn't seek the limelight, Drew has been a solid, if not spectacular performer for the Sox the past three seasons: good range on defense (a necessity in Fenway's humongous right field), timely hitting, high on base percentage, good arm. Not quite Dewey Evans in right, but, as Benjamin's article clearly shows, well worth $42 million over 5 years.
