Red Sox suspend Alfredo Aceves for three games

The Red Sox on Saturday suspended righthander Alfredo Aceves for three games for “conduct detrimental to the team” following a confrontation with manager Bobby Valentine.

Aceves had a closed-door meeting in Valentine’s office after the Sox beat the Royals on Friday night. The righthander was angry that he was not used to close the 4-3 game.

He sure would look good in Dodger blue!

Adios, muchacho.

"Bad boy, bad boy whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do when they come for you?"

Get rid of him, no good. He doesn't understand the only reason he was closing games was because Bailey was hurt. Adios, bueno para nada!
