The last week hasn’t been the best of Jonathan Papelbon’s career. With one blown save and a “heart attack closer” ninth against the Jays, is there a chink in Papelbon’s armor? Are you concerned about Papelbon’s recent performance?
- Yes, the ninth isn’t a guarantee anymore
- I’m a little concerned, but Paps will work it out
- No, it’s only a bump in the road. Papelbon will return to his dominant self.

If Sox fans want to look for closer problems just remember the Rays have Troy Percival.
At least we don’t have Gagme this year (no that isn’t a typo)
Check out replacementlevel.com today for their listing of SS value in the AL. Cap’n Intangibles is leading, but look at our boy Jed. If you go per at bat, Jeter has been worth .0507 runs per AB, while Jed is .0681. Aviles is running .0673. Looks like we have the most valuable SS in the AL now, and he’s making $375k. Jeter, btw, is making $20m.
Dale Sveum is the new Brewers coach. I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy.
what a travesty.
I saw that, holy cow.
I remember reading BIll Simmons absolutly crucify that guy … and remember seeing all his horrible “GO” signs when a runner rounded third … ugh!
Sveum in. Someone had to fuck someone nasty and there had to be pictures, video and dna samples taken for this to happen. Fielder will have a green light on his forehead and be the uhaul that never made it to his new home until this dynasty ends. God bless ‘em.
