I have to say, while I still think there's value to him starting (long-term), I happy as s*** he's the closer. He's f***ing nails.

He's an extraordinary reliever. We just need another quality arm to get to him. Piniero looked like he had no spit when he was out there.

 

Great investment for $4 million dollars, huh?

And hence why I said your pen was garbage. Papelbon has some serious s*** out there, but when the rubber meets the road, Paps will pitch...a lot. You can probably count on the jokers in the middle relief to keep big leads or small leads against s***** teams, but when a good offense comes to the plate and you have a 2 run lead in the 8th, who can you trust to close the door?

If anyone besides Papelbon or Jesus Christ comes out to pitch the 9th...Terry Francona should be shot. JC is available...he resurrected today :).

 

francona could bring in JC...

Morgan thinks Francona did a good job managing out of that jam? Sure, if you completely ignore the fact he managed them into it.
