Paps is not hurt. Body language from the bullpen would indicate he was surprised by Francona's choice to keep him in the bullpen. You have to remember its May 3rd, and if the arm of one of the most valuable pitchers on this staff is in need of rest Francona will give it to him no matter the competitive mindset Paps may have.

Hi all- At this point is somewhat ridiculous to claim the Red Sox rotation the best in baseball. If based on potential alone the Marlins could make the same claim as the Sox. Detroit has a filthy rotation and the expected development of prospects gives them even more potential.
