Red Sox sign Saito :)

Theo is at it again. Bullpen is going to be absolutely filthy this year. Ramirez, Saito, Okey, Delcarmen, Lopez, Masterson, Papelbon!

And this marks the first time I have ever seen something on mlb.com before mlbtraderumors.com

Wow, awesome!

He was a pretty good Dodgers closer.

Takashi Saito
Played with the Dodgers the last 3 years. 81 saves with a 1.95 ERA. 39 saves with a 1.40 ERA in 06. Coming off injury, though.

 

[scotty21690]

Nice, I like it.

 

[TelePlayer22]

Isn't he coming off some kind of experimental elbow surgery or something of that ilk? Seems like there's the chances of him dominating and not playing at all are about even

Cool. He signed some oversized customs I made of him using photoshop and a little copyright infringement:

jeez who will the set up man be masterson or saito? You can't deny saitos success as closer, but papelbon is well papelbon and been with the teams for years

Potentially Ramirez could set up as well. I think Masterson gets the job at first, though.

The Red Sox are signing everyone I want the Cardinals to get. :[

Wow! They might as well get rid of all their starters and just throw their dominant set-up type guys 1-2 innings every game...
