It was a matter of him coming back and getting in shape and playing again and all that, as well as the distraction of everything else that's going on. It's been a big enough distraction, and he hasn't been here. So, we decided for the organization and for the players that are here that it would be best that he not dress for the rest of the year.

![To be honest, I haven't always been a Red Sox fan, ... The first game I went to was when I was a player [with Yankees]. My dad hated to drive in Boston, so we never came down to see any games. And back then, there was usually only one game a week on TV, and it was usually the Cardinals. I can't tell you I'm a Red Sox fan through and through, but certainly I'm a guy who has admired what's gone on with the Red Sox. - Jim Beattie Quotes](/pic/img/img.php?text=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&author=ICBKaW0gQmVhdHRpZSAgICA=&num=10 "To be honest, I haven't always been a Red Sox fan, ...
