Sucks to be hitters facing Paps ... again

As if Jonathan Papelbon wasn't the best closer in the American League already (shut up, Yankees fans), this season, Paps has added a slider to his filthy splitter and his deadly fastball.

Now, when the Sox are up 1 in the ninth, right-handed hitters are gonna see Paps throwing at them and bail right before he catches the inside corner. Then he'll hit them while they're two seconds behind his fastball. It's going to be great.

Oh, and see ya at the end of May, A-Rod!
