He injured himself every second he played for the Twins, might as well keep him where he is effective and not worry about MVP awards.

Yeah Ortiz CAN play first, I remember last year they put him at first a few times. He also played in the World Series. Isn't exactly a Gold Glover tho haha

Papelbon came in for close tonight instead of Foulke...got 2 quick outs so far...lets see what happens here

STRIKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE 3

Make fucking Papelbon the closer, his fastball isn't 86, isn't that enough reason?

I am sure this will be all over the Boston Papers tomorrow too, gonna have a field day with this.

Papelbon was sweet. Yeah my boy Trot with the 2run homer. I thought Beckett did well too.

7 innings and 1 run

Looks pretty good to me

Fluke

Well Kyle Lohse is a fluke :roll:

What was a fluke? Beckett doing good or Papelbon?

Neither of them is a fluke if you ask me. Beckett has always proved to be a good pitcher, just his injuries have gotten the best of him and I think Papelbon will be great in the closer role until Hanson is ready for the big leagues.

(Kidding)

Kyle Lohse = This years John Garland

Hopefully

Foulke had a 1-2-3 9th last night. Wasn't even close to a save situation, but good to see that. Still though, I'd rather just have Papelbon. Foulkes style always makes it way too interesting at the end. It always seems like he gets saves by getting guys to "pop out" to the warning track and stuff like that.

Foulke's style makes me way too nervous at the end.

Wow Schilling is awful

Schilling is done.

Man on 3rd no outs..Wakefield strikes out the next 3 batters :love:

If we stay healthy we got it. Crisp is out for a bit but Stern is more than capable to step in.

Damn just tried to buy tickets online, was hopeful for a random single game ticket for like a Tampa Bay game or something but everything is sold out wow fuck. Unless I wanna play 90 dollars to go to a Baltimore game on the 6th of May :-\

Skipping my next 2 classes to watch the Red Sox home opener

Go Jays

(STFU)

4th save for PapelbOWN :cool:

Goddamn it Nixon. You better be ok. You and Crisp are going to screw me in fantasy.

Nixon must be back on the sauce haha

Coco and Ortiz lockeddddd up for the next few years :cool:

David Wells is a lil bitch though, had a post game interview saying how he thought the crowd was saying "Boomer" and not booing him after he gave up 2 homeruns in the first inning. I wish they would just trade him honestly, hes such a d-bag. Last couple of games each starter has posted like a 1 ER then Wells blows that..what does he expect? This isn't San Diego

Ahhhhh looks like the first losing streak of the season :mad:

Jays are hot tonight. ;)

Yeah they played well this series, on top of Red Sox starters pitching awful in the last 2 games of the series so the shitshow of games really wasn't that surprising. Hopefully this is just one game thing for these guys (kinda like Wakefield)

To make my night even better, I just got written up at a party at school...awesome

Ortiz was about 15 feet from tieing it too though :(

Yeah I wish my friend hadn't made me leave at the bottom of the 9th. Pretty sure it was over by then. :mad:

Schilling and Papelbon all day everyday

Joel Pineiro and JJ Putz all day everyday. 3-0 Mariners

Mirabelli :(

Manny takes out YAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHDDDDDDDDD KIDDDDDDDDDDDDD

hahahah nice bullpen ass holes.

just liek last year blue jays> Red sox

lol right

That was a pretty good game even though the Red Sox lost. Manny is back with 2 homers, Beckett didn't pitch as well as he has been but I think he should have been pulled after the 7th then he woulda only had 2 ER. Oh well though, Papelbon pitched real good in relief again, things are looking good except for a few shaky guys in the pen.

btw, 95-67 > 80-82

we owned your ass last season. and for far 3-1 jays.......Kinda sucks when you line up consists of two guys carrying the team

Obviously you have no idea what you are talking about. Manny hasn't done shit all year until tonights game, yet they are in first place of the AL East (not like it really matters whos in first right now but it shows that they have been winning) and they will finish ahead of the Blue Jays in the standings. As for that 2 player thing, uhh what about Coco Crisp, Jason Varitek, Kevin Youkilis (you checked his stats this year?) Mark Loretta or Trot Nixon? Or how about Schilling, Beckett, Papelbon? Yeah all those guys are awful. Everyone loves talking about how bad the Red Sox are here at TPWW, but we'll see what happens at the end of the season.

Jays won 11 outta the 18 meetings between the 2 teams last year I believe, so while they had a few more wins than the Red Sox head to head wouldn't exactly call it "kicking their asses" when the Sox finished up with 15 more wins and made it to the playoffs.

Them Orioles ain't doin too bad either.

Blue Jays and Cubs both had over .600 win pct versus the Red Sox last season, both teams are so much better than Boston!!!
