Did the Redsocks just give us our 8th inning bridge to Mariano?

Maybe I'm missing something, but I always thought before they jettisoned a great pitcher like John Smoltz, they would try him in the bullpen. To be honest, I feared it.

Today, they stabbed him, buried him under the floorboards and opened the windows, hoping visitors won't notice the smell.

Obviously, I haven't thought this through -- but that never stopped me before -- why not give him a call?

One inning. That's all we need. Send Robertson to Scranton until Sept. 1.

We could use another Wade Boggs.

great quote from sterling "well if they think this game is boring, well they just don't like baseball" in the bottom of the 9th
