We fight because we love


It's moments like these when I'm proud to be a Sox fan. 

At any rate, there's a photo gallery up from Monday's game if you're interested.  It's somewhat nice when the biggest disappointment from attending a two-game set is wearing a Profundo! shirt when Juan Uribe takes the night off.  At least it helped one commenter stop by for a solid handshake on the outfield concourse.

Here's an exercise for you all while I get back into a regular posting routine:  If you so choose, rate the Sox relievers by the amount of confidence you have in them.  My list:
  1. Bobby Jenks:  His control is off, but he's still getting the job done.
  2. Matt Thornton:  I'm pretty sure he's over his early-season struggles.
  3. David Aardsma:  I'm hoping this past weekend was an aberration.
  4. Nick Masset:  I don't trust him in situations where one swing makes a difference.
  5. Boone Logan:  In a perfect world, he wouldn't be this high.
  6. Mike MacDougal:  My mom would've yelled at him in the bullpen if another guy wasn't already doing the job.
  7. Andy Sisco:  I can't identify one thing he brings to the table besides height.
(After one of MacDougal's warm-up tosses, the heckler yelled, "Ball four!")
