Re: *official 2007 red sox thread*
At home you can do it because as soon as you score a run the games over and you don't need a closer. but i know what you're all saying, it's better to use your best rather lose the game without him getting off the pine. But still on the road its tough.

[/ QUOTE ] Who has a better chance of keeping the score as it is? If Timlin gives up a run here the game is over. Since getting outs is the goal currently so your team can bat, why use the lesser pitcher? Also, BOS can score more than 1 run and allow for a lesser pitcher to 'close' the rest of the game. Paps highest value is in the current situation where giving up any runs is 100% chance of losing the game. craig

Re: *official 2007 red sox thread*
This was already discussed ad nauseam in the Yankees thread to which I linked.
The thing is, I'm pretty sure there have been situations before where Tito has used Papelbon on the road in a tie game in the 9th/10th/11th.

[/ QUOTE ] The only reason I can imagine that Francona hasn't brought him out is because boston has an 11 game lead in the division, and wants him to get a lot of rest with the ASB coming up. That is the only thing I can imagine, not saying it is correct. Also, the fallacy of authority isn't very convincing. If I said 'well francona batted a rookie, he is a coach, so i must be right that batting the rookie was the correct thing to do" that doesn't make it the right thing to do. craig
