Darnell McDonald is not your savior.

Re: Darnell McDonald called up by Red Sox Today
I continue to LOL at people that say "Only the Reds would have _______ on their roster."
Ramon Ortiz said hello today as well.

Re: Darnell McDonald called up by Red Sox Today
Wily Taveras, Darnell McDonald and Alex Gonzalez have all had at least one heroic night this season. What's the world coming to?

Re: Darnell McDonald called up by Red Sox Today
I just heard the radio call of his HR, after the initial excitement is over you hear this:

Re: Darnell McDonald called up by Red Sox Today
The only reason McDonald is on the Major League club is that both Cameron and Ellsbury went on the DL.

Re: Darnell McDonald called up by Red Sox Today
Good for him.
I had MLB Network on in the background last night while reading and I heard "blah blah blah Darnell McDonald blah blah blah" and I was like huh? Watched the highlights and I just had to laugh. Dude doesn't give up. Maybe he's the Hal King of this year's Red Sox.

Re: Darnell McDonald called up by Red Sox Today
Darnell kind of grew on me last year. Serviceable type. Not a bad guy to have at AAA in case tragedy strikes.
