If he can manage to play in the field, Youk will most likely sit out at least for most of the game. If the Sox continue to score the runs then it won't matter to have Ortiz in there.

I totally agree. This talk of putting Ortiz at first, Youkilis in right and Drew in Center is the most ridiculous thing I've read here. Ortiz is a DH with bad knees, Youkilis has played a total of 18 games in left in 2006, Drew is NOT a CF, and Manny already sucks in left. You would be killing your entire OF defense and 1B defense for an extra bat on what is already an offensive powerhouse. It's like giving Bill Gates an extra billion dollars.
