    Re: Boston Red Sox: 2007

    Terrible outing by Gagne, that goes without saying, but the manger was just as bad. This is it, the home stretch, there should be no messing around and the leash should be short. When Gagne walks Thomas with two down, Papelbon needs to come in. Gagne has been shakey at best since joining the Red Sox and Francona can't give the opportunity to let that happen again. Francona completely lacks the killer instinct as a manager, and it shows through with this team.

      Great night last night. Beckett got his 20th win. And the Yankees lost in the 14th inning.

          Javy Lopez is terrible.

          So is Lugo, but at least for one at-bat he forgot about that.

            Who had Lugo, Drew, and Gagne as guys to come up big last night? Weird.

              I was bound to happen eventually, Wakefield losing a game at the Trop, but I wish it had occurred in April or something instead of the last week of September.

                  And Youkilis is pinch-hitting for Stinksky in the 5th with two on, two outs, and a lefty (DiNardo) on the mound. Unfortunately, he popped out.

                    why didn't Schilling come back out for the 7th? Only 86 pitches.

                    Good 1st game back for Manny....he scored from second on a double by Mike Lowell, which is really encouraging. And Ellsbury continues to get it done

                      Jesus Christ, isn't seeing Gagne pitch with the game on the line a terrifying experience? Does anybody else feel that the louder the crowd gets, the more he can't control himself?

                      Take tonight for instance, the crowd started going bonkers because the Yankees blew the lead to Tampa. All of sudden, Gagne was overthrowing change-ups in the dirt and becoming extremely wild. I just don't have a lot of faith in him blocking out the distractions and just pitching in the playoffs. It also seems like his fastball just isn't good enough to put away hitters right now. I know I saw it registering 92-93 MPH, but he just couldn't seem to get any swings and misses with it (even with his curveball and change up going).

                      It seems like they are going to keep going to him though, so I hope his shakiness doesn't cost us the season.

                        Yeah, I agree. Gagne makes me nervous, but atleast it was a multiple run lead. Seems like he didn't know what to think when the crowd went crazy.

                        Papi just hit a 2 run bomb!

                          Down to 3. I know they already have their postseason spot, but with the magic number at 3 with 5 to play I think they should just go for it. If they win the division before the season's final game then they can rest guys all they want.

                            I'm sure you BoSox fans will talk about today's game but why the weird start time of 5 PM?
