If You See This Man...


BOULDER, Colorado -- ...please do whatever you can to stop him from pitching again for the Red Sox.

I know this site isn't about baseball, but Eric Gagne is unspeakably bad. He did it again against the Angels Friday, allowing a walk, three hits and three runs, all earned.

In the span of just over a week, he has recorded two blown saves and blown another big lead in Baltimore that eventually cost the Sox the game, while allowing seven earned runs in three innings over his last four games. That's criminal. The bullpen is so stacked, why do they keep sending this guy out there? And now the Sox' lead in the division is a mere four games.

Hopefully, Friday's game was the last straw for Tito Francona.

So, please, whatever it takes, stop him from taking the mound again if you want to beat the Yankees.

Yeah, he has been a disaster so far for Boston, but people here hope it is just a temporary problem. We'll see what happens today as Sox playing doubleheader with other Sox in Chicago.
Are you RedSox fan?
