Well, I guess this kind of settles the debate we were having the other day about who's the better starting pitcher between Wainwright and Papelbon.

I should just put 'MDCardsFan was right about Matt Clement 27 months ago and I was wrong' in my signature.

Yeah, but I did think Larry Bigbe would help us out last year and we all know how that turned out.RC21 wrote:MDCardsFan wrote:Ya know, the best.... oh never mindRC21 wrote:Clement is out until July, I believe.Swatcat27 wrote:Maybe clement, lester ??

I could have sworn that I heard them say MAY move back to the closer role.

They were talking about it earlier in the game. They did a close up of him, and one of their on-field reporters said that it would be announced after the game.cardfaninfla wrote:I could have sworn that I heard them say MAY move back to the closer role.
Could be wrong, though.

I guess, Lester is getting closer to the rotation, so it makes more sense to move Papelbon to the closer's slot & fix their biggest problem. I think he has more value in the closer's role than as a starter for the BoSox.

Who's going to be in the #5 spot in the rotation in his place, I wonder?
Tavarez?
Kyle Snyder?
You heard it here first.
