Jacoby Ellsbury Blogs it Up - Ready for Red Sox Comeback
Like I said after Game 3, I'm in a slump, but I feel like I'm close to coming out of it. But it's their decision to make. My job is to be ready to go every day and be prepared whether I'm in the starting lineup or I'm coming off the bench. That's the manager's decision.
