Are you watching this BS happening in Toronto with freakin' Eric Gagne? WHY did Tito keep him in??? We were WINNING this game! UNBELIEVABLE... Blue Jays now ahead 4-2.

Gagne lost two easy wins in Baltimore back in August. Gagne is losing the Divison for the Red Sox!

I have completely lost respect for Francona. He should have taken Gagne out right away. Even Remy and Orsillo are incredulous... Papelbon hasn't worked in 3 days. Papelbon would've put 'em away...

The Yankees were winning 7-0 at last check...

The Red Sox are screwed. Okijima has nothing left at this point in the season, Delcarmen is trick or treat and the other choices, besides Gag-Me are old Man Timlin, Cory or Snyder.

Gagne was supposed to bolster the pen but instead has given away 4 games for the Sox. Francona did make the mistake giving him too much of a leash but he needs someone to pitch the 8th and this is what they got him for. Frankly the experiment needs to be over. This performance was as disgusting as they get with his inability to throw a strike. One thing if they hit your pitches but to just walk in runs is completely unprofessional.

The Sox will go to the playoffs but as a WC team that backed in while falling apart. I predict they go out in the first round while winning but one game.

Gagne has cost us four games. Even Lopez for a groundball out would have taken care of our problem in the 8th. The Yanks are firing on all cylinders and we’re sputtering.
