Donnelly is done for the season, Timlin is Hurt....Again. Now you have a solid Lefty in Okajima and a solid Righty in Gagne coming out of the pen to set up for Papelbon. Its going to be pretty much lights out when we get into the 7th inning now. :)
 
Gagne knew he wasn't going to close in Boston and he went there anyway...he'll be fine nailing down the 8th.

And anyone who says a pitcher can't use a devastating changeup to close out games just needs to go check out Hoffman.

In fact, going from Gagne's changeups to Papelbon's fastball is not something I would enjoy experiencing...at all.

And Timlin is available if needed.
 
ESPN is really milking this record, they are showing like every Giants game this week. Who really cares.
 
I feel like this pic could use some captioning...

You know something is wrong in the NL West when the D-backs are in front, the Rockies are still in the hunt and the Giants are the only one with a losing record.
 
Nice comeback win for the Sox..The adventures of Windmill Willie Mo continue. But man is it painful watching Trachsel pitch..He must add an hour to each game he pitches..
 
Baseball history lesson:
For the first time in MLB history both teams have scored 8 runs or more in a single inning.
The second inning took an hour to play.
White Sox 8 Yankees 8
 
Its not worth giving away young talent just for 2 months.:cool:

We still have plenty of young pitching prospects in the farm system.

Give Gabbard a full year and his ERA will probably be sitting around 5.00.

But only time will tell.....Right now our starters only have to give us 6 strong and then the door should get shut.
 
I miss Pedro :(

We would either way, he's been hurt. looks as if the Sox did the right thing in letting him go. Then again you never know.

I'm happy with the team we got right now. SP's looking good for the rest of the year especially with Schill coming back.

Should be a good run, especially with the Yanks pushing a little now. Its going to be a fun last couple of months.
 
Imagine Pierce, Garnett and Allen on the same team. Oh wait...

I know its off topic, but damn.

Maybe we can top the 2 Boston teams with a championship from 04 and make it 3 this year :eek:

too bad the Bruins still suck.
