Crapelbon signs with the Phillies - chevy man 22 - 11-11-2011 4 yr. @ $50 mil. lol RE: Crapelbon signs with the Phillies - bustin 5 knots - 11-11-2011 And Robert Andino goes to the Nationals...nah just kidding, but seriously I bet Papelbon hates that guy RE: Crapelbon signs with the Phillies - yankeeempire - 11-11-2011 See that sucks for me because even as a Yankee fan Papelbon was my favorite pitcher. Now i gotta buy a stinking phillies jersey..oh well you cant win them all RE: Crapelbon signs with the Phillies - jacobystealshome - 11-11-2011 Make this clear: losing papelbon might hurt the sox short term, no doubt. however, this is akin to the Pats losing Vinateri. yes, vinateri was good for a couple more years, but then his career went downhill fast closers are a temporary thing. there are very few closers that are great for more than 6 years. there are very few mariano's and hoffman's out there. so yea, this will suck next year. and someone is gonna have to be our gostkowski now. maybe it's bard. maybe not as a sidenote: my vote for Bard's Nickname?

But this actually works in my favor. I live 15 minutes away from Citizens Bank Park and so the area i'm in is Phillies country so with all my Papelbon autos and cards i could trade will be a gold mine lol. The downside is he went to another team that is not one i really like so yea i guess i can't have my cake and eat it too but i will still support Papelbon no matter where he goes. RE: Crapelbon signs with the Phillies - zeprock - 11-11-2011 As a Red Sox fan, I'm kinda glad to see him go. He comes across as sort of a head case and he scares me when he takes the mound. He can take his wild eyes, his crazy dance and the Dropkick Murphys with him. Bard will probably work. If not maybe they can throw Lackey out there. He's gotta be good for something. RE: Crapelbon signs with the Phillies - alfredoleal2001 - 11-11-2011 hummm me likes this signing lol .... I dont care if they overpaid its not my money lol RE: Crapelbon signs with the Phillies - jacobystealshome - 11-11-2011 (11-11-2011, 04:22 PM)zeprock Wrote: As a Red Sox fan, I'm kinda glad to see him go.

A good closer is far more important than a good kicker |
