These two postcards are part of a set handed out on Fan Appreciation Day on September 28. Key pieces of the puzzle: Gregg Dobbs, pinch-hitter extraordinaire, and Jayson Werth, who came back from injury and blossomed into a full-time player. Got to give it big-time to general manager Pat Gillick, a genius with details. Building on the nucleus assembled by former GM Ed Wade, Gillick picked up an invaluable array of guys let go by other organizations: Dobbs, Werth, J.C. Romero, Chad Durbin, Scott Eyre, and the unlikely Matt Stairs. Pat Gillick is deservedly one of the top GM's in the game.Uh-oh, here come the Red Sox. Josh Beckett gutted it out last night to keep his team in the game for an eventual 4-2 win. Last chance for the Rays tonight in Tampa. Lester vs. Garza.
