SportsNation: Where's Nomar?

Garciaparra

Nixon
The Boston Red Sox are winning their share of games, staying even with the New York Yankees in the AL East, and getting some major help from the bullpen. They are doing it all without two of their best players -- Nomar Garciaparra and Trot Nixon -- in the lineup.

How important is the return of Garciaparra and Nixon to the Red Sox lineup? Where will Nomar be next season? With so many star players, who is the key to Boston's World Series hopes?

Cast your votes and see how your opinion stacks up to that of the rest of Sox Nation (and SportsNation).

  • 1) Nomar Garciaparra is supposed to return to the Red Sox lineup in early June. What do you expect?
  • 2) What one word should best describe the attitude of Sox fans towards Nomar's long rehab?
  • 3) Which player do the Red Sox need more?
  • 4) Should the Red Sox trade Nomar Garciaparra instead of letting him become a free agent?
  • 5) Which team will Nomar Garciaparra be with next season?
  • 6) Last year the Red Sox tried an innovative approach to building a bullpen. This year, with Keith Foulke, they are using a more traditional approach. What explains the bullpen's greater success this season?
  • 7) Keith Foulke has a 0.40 ERA this season. Is he the key to the Red Sox World Series hopes?
