Tito to drop Ortiz in the lineup?

Stumbled on this interesting tweet from Joe Haggerty (a regular guest of Fireside Chats) after tonight’s game.

I think it’s time. Since coming back from his “break”, Ortiz has hit a measly .158 with nine, count them K, K, K, K, K, K, K, K, K, in twenty one plate appearances. That’s a remarkable 43%. Of course, he does have his only home run of the season (whippeee). Granted he’s faced a ton of left handed pitching since his hiatus. But it is time to make a change for the good of all parties involved.

If I were drawing up tomorrow’s lineup, here’s my card:
1. Ellsbury
2. Pedroia
3. Drew
4. Youkilis
5. Bay
6. Ortiz
7. Lowell
8. Varitek
9. Green
Time for Tito to take some action.
