Michael Silverman on Jacoby Ellsbury, the nearly forgotten center fielder (via the Boston Herald):
It’s Early But Jacoby Ellsbury Looks Healthy

I'll probably write at some length about this tomorrow, but the biggest difference between the 2010 Red Sox and the 2011 Red Sox figures to be not Adrian Gonzalez and Carl Crawford, but better health. Granted, we don't know that's going to happen. But it seems a pretty safe bet. And Ellsbury's early showing is just one good sign.
