David Wright was 0-for-9 with 3 errors in Atlanta series.

I just brought it up because, instead of questioning Jeter Jr.'s ability to play in a big game, Mike Lupica continues his obsession with Johnny Damon:

"In Boston they now think of Johnny Damon as the guy who used to play center for the Red Sox right before Cocoa Crisp."

That would make sense since Johnny Damon is the guy who used to play center for the Red Sox right before "Cocoa" Crisp. Only difference being that most people in Boston spell it "Coco" instead of "Cocoa."


What's Lupica's problem with Johnny Damon?

Lupica has taken a gratuitous swipe at Damon in the past ten or so Shootin' From the Lips.

Come on, Lupica. You're a NY sportswriter and you're tough as nails. Wright was 0-for-9 against Atlanta and Beltran didn't even play. Your Favorite Li'l Firecracker at shortstop is sporting a nice .272 on-base%. This is way more interesting and informative than your pointless ongoing vendetta against Johnny Damon.
