According to the Globe, the Sox had a closed door meeting before last night's game. Didn't work. Tito has to get tossed in tonight's game, this was brought up earlier, to show these guys we gotta play the games against the Royals and Orioles and Rays. It would be nice to open a big can of whoopass on the Royals tonight, with Curt going, and carry it back home for the big homestand.
Don't worry about Papelbon, he will be fine. This kid has the mental toughness to close, he's just going through a rocky time.
