9/25 Sox vs. Yankees DOUBLEHEADER

[jacksonianmarch]

Too bad we don't have enough money to re-sign paps. He's about the only one lately I've seen show any intensity.

 

huh? Dont have enough money? I think I saw John Henry printing money the other day.... Dont let them fool you, they have the money. They might not like the commitment in years

This Romine kid...I got his Dad's autograph at a game when I was a kid.

Is that Kevin Romine's kid? Hope he's better than his dad.

LOL WHAT

[example1]

Paps looks like the pitcher of 07 right now. No splitter, but everything else.

Great location.

 

He threw a split earlier. It's there.

 

Yes, he looks like the pitcher of 07.

 

I was initially hesitant about them resigning Papelbon, but now that we've seen so many actual FA busts and young guys approximate but not match what proven veteran stars can do, I think you've got to retain Papelbon. He's a truly elite closer. There can be no doubt.

yes, that's Kevin's kid

You don't score you can't win. Make it happen.

Pathetic swing.

[Boggs Chicken Dinner]

For once, can we get a clutch hit?

[jacksonianmarch]

Wow, Paps is going out for a third frame.

[example1]

How is it possible that Drew can come back for the whole game yet there was no word of him being available before this?

[jacksonianmarch]

I dont get that from a manager's perspective. You have three games to finish the yr and if you lose tonight, you're in a flatfooted tie with Tampa. If Paps throws a full inning and dominates, then you still go to the 11th tied up. And if the Yanks still end up winning, then you burn Paps for tomorrow for nothing

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Some quality AB's.

 

....wtf

[Meh]

 

It is Kevin Romine's kid.

 

His other son is Andrew and players for the Angels as a SS.

[example1]

Terrible. We've seen this game too many times. Into the middle teen innings. It doesn't bode well.

Let me re-phrase. Don't have the money that Paps will want!

[SoxSport]

They were saving him for the playoffs.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

We get this win and we'll be good for the Orioles. Somehow we need to force this into the top of the 12th.

[Station 13]

Paps was only at 20 pitches.

[iortiz]

Theres your starter gentlemen, if we make the POs.

At this point in the season you play for today. Tomorrow may be a blowout where you won't need him.

[Boggs Chicken Dinner]

Sooooooooo........does this start the Papelbon as starter debate again?

 

Forgive me, I need some levity now, this game is stressful.

[SoxSport]

Girardi is in the dugout praying, "Please Lord, let this game end."

[mvp 78]

Sox can't afford to let Paps go. The money is there.

This is the truth.

True

[example1]

True

 

And frankly, tonight's game makes me a bit optimistic that they could do something in Baltimore, regardless of tonight's outcome. Maybe wishful thinking.

[iortiz]

Should we continue with Pap? I'd say yeah!

[jacksonianmarch]

We're going to Laffey? Where is Ayala?

IMO, we win and we do what we got to do in Baltimore. We lose this team stays dead.
