me gusta papelbon mucho

 

i dont think i've ever been so excited to see the sox winning in 1, 2, and 3 run games.

 

i never have ever loved watching two guys pitch more than okajima and papelbon (maybe except for pedro)

Anyone laughing now? :D

 

He is straight NASTY.

 

In Sports Illustrated they polled a number of MLB executives about who they would choose to start a team with. #1 was Jose Reyes, #2 was Papelbon (by one measure) and A-Rod by another.

 

his stock continues to rise and he keeps getting better. His shoulder looks strong and the sox haven't even had to use him very much.

 

When was the last time they used him in the 8th inning?

I pretty much have to agree here.

Thats because they havent, haha.

 

Without looking, I feel sure that they have won more games with a combined score between both teams of four or less, and recorded more shutouts than the last two seasons combined.

The great thing is that this team is not overachieving. They are playing like they should. Their expected wins (based on James' pythagorean formula) is 45-26. They are winning close games seemingly by keeping runners off the bases in the 7th, 8th and 9th. It is amazing.

My question is, what do we do with Lugo? He has now dropped below .200. How much longer should we keep him in the lineup? At this point, I'm hoping they start using Cora more often and offer Arod a big fat contract for SS next year.

last time I can remember was the 5 out save in Texas where he completely owned their lineup.

 

As far as Lugo goes, its time to start platooning him with Cora
