Comments on: And We Signed Him… why? http://bosoxblotter.com/2006/03/28/and-we-signed-him-why/ For news & views on the Boston Red Sox Sat, 05 Jul 2008 11:42:07 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=1.5 by: Shawn http://bosoxblotter.com/2006/03/28/and-we-signed-him-why/#comment-176 Tue, 28 Mar 2006 20:03:47 -0500 http://bosoxblotter.com/2006/03/28/and-we-signed-him-why/#comment-176 A guy like Tavarez brings intensity. Who cares if it's cheap or not. It'll make people think twice about saying something to him (media beware). Over the past few years there were plenty of Sox that I didn't like and it wasn't because they like to fight. Maybe now since Kapler is gone, Tavarez is there to pick up the slack and help Papi and Trot kick some TB ass....literaly. We all know about bench clearing brawls and how it pumps up the team and crowd. Just ask Domi how it works. There is a role for every one and only a few can feed Manny applesauce. That job is not for everyone. So next time Julien, throw a punch for me. A guy like Tavarez brings intensity. Who cares if it’s cheap or not.
