Mike:
Once again, Timmah delivahs!
Steve:
Do you realize that is win 171? He's just 21 shy of all-time team W list shared by Cy Young and Roger "Bitch Tits" Clemens.
Mike:
Amazing. They oughta name a town in on the MBTA’s Haverill/Reading commuter line in Middlesex County after him.
Steve:
And this '09 club just keeps grinding it out and finding ways to win.
Mike:
I'm stahting to get a bit nervous about Paps, though.
Steve:
Seriously. If he keeps leaving the lights on in the 9th like that, Al Gore is going to come down and open a can of green whoop ass on him.
Mike:
The really inconvenient truth about Papelbon is the possibility that he's hurt.
Mike:
I mean the tweaked mechanics, the lowering arm slot, the reduced command and control are all hahbingahs of injury.
Steve:
And even if there is no injury, the increased pitch counts have to make you wonder what kind of wear and tear he's enduring and how will this effect things in the 2nd half?
Mike:
Ah, well, I guess this just means I'll continue to need to get shit-faced before the 9th.
