Big Papi's slump

It is baseball's equivalent of golf's yips and he's suffering from it. I've always liked him and feel for him, even more so because he is a stand-up guy and hasn't offered any excuses for his recent dismal performance which has been going on for quite a while now. In one interview he simply said, "All I can tell you right now is that Big Papi stinks."

The last ten days however, he has been showing signs of life and is inching back to the number three spot in the lineup. Last night he homered and singled against my team, the Marlins, so maybe he's back.
