Jonathan Papelbon

Bobby Jenks Has a Chance to Become Red Sox Closer ‘After’ Jonathan Papelbon

Theo Epstein and the Boston Red Sox ownership are on a mission. The objective is simple: surpass the Yankees over the course of the 2010-2011 offseason. We haven’t even gotten to 2011 yet, and it would appear the mission has been accomplished. …

Dumb Story Alert: Red Sox Would Have Let Papelbon Go if they Got Rivera

Red Sox Fans No Longer Like Papelbon

Jonathan Papelbon Crossdresses in High School Dirty Dancing Rendition

Jonathan Papelbon and Manny Delcarmen do Milli Vanilli Remix

I never thought much of Manny Delcarmen as a pitcher. At least he has a future as a backup singer one day in case he loses his day job. As far as Jonathan Papelbon goes, I’ve been hard on him for being outspoken about his money, but …

Jonathan Papelbon Wants His Money

I was planning to write up on this yesterday when I first saw this quote, but as you probably noticed, I didn’t do any posting. You can chalk that up to LBS being out with “flu-like symptoms.” Funny how multiple athletes have …

Video: Jonathan Papelbon Does the Irish Jig dance

Jonathan Papelbon showed off the dance moves in a great video. The Boston Red Sox closer busted out with a great Irish Jig. He showed off his skills that got people laughing. He’s also challenging Joakim Noah for the biggest clown yet. Brace …

Jonathan Papelbon: Straight Cash Homey

There’s no secret that I think very highly of Red Sox closer Jonathan Papelbon. But there’s one thing about him I don’t understand. Check out this head scratcher from Jonathan Papelbon: I’m here to get my fair share of …

Jonathan Papelbon Is Nails

After all the back-and-forth garbage throughout the off-season and Spring Training, it was easy to see after last night’s game why the Red Sox moved Jonathan Papelbon back to the bullpen. The stud closer was uber-clutch in closing out the 3-2 …

Terry Francona wants Papelbon in Pen

Red Sox manager Terry Francona leaves no room for question – he wants Jonathan Papelbon to be his closer. Of course he does. Papelbon was nearly un-hittable last year – giving up just 7 earned runs (7!!) in over 68 innings pitched, only 3 …
