Kazmir and Ted Lilly, my goodness. A two-hit shutout? The Sox have faced him 11 times, and other teams seem to be able to do something against him. Why not?

[Lance324]

2 hits, that's all we managed 2 damn hits. Varitek strikes out 4 times. The Red Sox need to try to acquire this guy, regardless of how many wins he'd get for us, He'd save us 3 or 4 losses a season. We play the Rays two more series this year, a 3 game and a 2 game. Let's pray that we miss Kazmir both times.

I don't know if there's a player in baseball that isn't one of the top-tier, young, cheap players in the league that the Devil Rays would give up Kazmir for.

Mucking Fets.

I can't believe they only got 2 hits! I figured Kazmir wouldn't be easy but come on, 2 hits?? That's pathetic. I agree the Red Sox need to get this guy. Let's pull a Yankees and buy him from the D-Rays.

[CrimsonNW]

I don't think Kazmir is ever leaving. And LMAO AT THE METS! How is the Scott Kazmir-Victor Zambrano swap feeling now?

[Rufio181]

WTF?

[Nolan_Ryan]

Lol I didn't know the Red Sox and Devil Rays felt that way about each other.
