    you know what, I don't know if i am alone or the majority, but I do not want a salary cap for baseball. And it is not just because the Sox are 2nd in spending. It is because that is not baseball. The small market teams can win and progress. The Marlins will be just fine without really inflating their spending. The Rockies aren't bad. Teams can win with small budgets, they just have to have good scouts and a good FO. The Angels were nowhere near the top and they came to win the World Series, and he Marlins have done it twice. If small market fans want to complain, then they better get their butts to the stadium so their team can have a little more money. Baseball does not need to turn into the NFL, it takes away the tradition and the personality of teams.

    i thought the same thing, but I passed it as too ridiculous to comment on for fear I might break into a rage and get myself banned

    ...and most of all, good for the Red Sox, I don't mean to make it sound like I'm happy he is hurt, but it helps us, so:thumbsup:

    he has been bred to be a starter. Right now he is pitching about 3 times a week. If he pitches 2 innings in 1 of those, that would put him at a grand total of 4 innings in a week. Somehow, I do not understand how being a closer makes it impossible for him to go two or three innings if we need him to do that. What if we had made him a long reliever? Maybe we should, Hansen can usually take care of business for one inning. In a big situation, I would rather see Paps out there for three innings than anyone else take the mound.

    i think if you mean that we could possibly use Paps for 2-3 innings saves rather than letting Tavarez or Seanez pitch, that would be fine if you did it sparingly. You know, 2 or 3 appearances a week, one can be long

    Wedge: "Hey I've got an idea, let's walk Kevin Youkilis to get to Mark Loretta." Westbrook: "Why?" Wedge: "You know, so Loretta can drive one in then Ortiz can get the go ahead hit."
  16. Papelbon58
    yes, 2 on for Youk and the top of the order
