Peace out, Big Jim.

 

Gear up for those 8th and 9th inning ABs against right-handed relievers. You ain't never gonna sniff another lefty again.

 

You also get to reunite with your former teammate/fellow roider Manny Ramirez. That should be nice.

 

Fellow roider? Are you seriously saying Thome is a roider?

I'm gonna miss him. The two moments I remember most from when Jimmy was a Sox was his 500th homer and his home run in the tiebreaker last year. His 500th homer came in 2007 which was a horrible year for the Sox and it one of the few highlights of that season, not to mention it was a dramatic walk off win against the Angels. And the Tiebreaker homer was the reason the Sox got into the postseason last year. Many people don't know how special the blackout game was. It was against our biggest rivals and the last time we went to the postseason, 2005, we clinched everything on the road. That was the first time we got to celebrate something on home turf in a while. Bye Jimmy, good luck.
