Youkilis and Gonzo have been such improvements over Millar and Edgerror Renteria. Renteria admitted in the paper that he couldn't handle the pressure and that was his excuse for sucking, probably true since he is now doing good in a city where nobody cares about baseball.

I can definetly foresee some future errors tho when they move Wily Mo to first base. As of right now, Youkilis's back up is Mark Loretta so they need some more depth there.
It's hard to be that hard on a guy who has played his whole career in the NL and then struggles in the AL. It happens to everybody who switches leagues with the exception of guys like Vlad and Thome that had already proven theirselves as top 5 hitters in the game.
