Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

So the Red Sox bullpen blew the game last night against the Orioles. That's OK. The Red Sox bullpen has been great the whole season - they're allowed a stinker every once and a while... Just to add more fuel to the "take the under on Charger wins" conversation - the Football Outsiders rank the coaching staffs of all 32 NFL teams and the Chargers' staff comes in 30th out of 32 teams... After appearances in 4 games for the Red Sox - opponents are hitting .474 against Eric Gagne. They were only hitting .192 against him when he was in Texas. He has to get better... Last night the Oakland A's beat the Detroit Tigers 16-10. There were 4 NFL exhibitions last night and only one of the 4 games produced more points than the number of runs scored in the A's game...
