Sale Price: $99.95

J. D. Drew is a right fielder for the Boston Red Sox. He is a left-handed hitter, and began his major league career in 1998 with the St. Louis Cardinals. On January 25, 2007, Drew officially signed a five-year contract with the Red Sox worth $70 million. Drew's revised contract has a clause that allows the Red Sox to opt out of Drew's five-year contract after three or four years if Drew has extensive injuries due to a previously existing problem in his right shoulder. The Red Sox won the 2007 World Series with Drew as a key contributor (he hit .333 in the Fall Classic). Drew is now largely regarded by Red Sox fans as a hero who frequently comes through when Boston needs him the most. Drew's younger brother, Tim, was also drafted in the first round in 1997, making them the first brothers drafted in the first round of the Major League Baseball Draft in the same year.
