I my ongoing efforts to pretend today's day game never happened, I'm distracting myself with video from last night instead. More specifically, this post-game lockerroom interview segment with the much-maligned Eric Gagne -- who is, dare I say it, rather cute and cuddly here?
So that's how you know that Gagne's had a good day - he doesn't cuss. Against my better judgment, I find myself hearting him ever so slightly for referring to his cussfest after his last horrific outing.
Notice: they have his locker set up next to Clement. How awesome would it be if the pitching staff's lockers were arranged in order according to how well they're doing? Gagne being given the locker just ahead of a guy who's not back out of rehab assignments yet is pretty fitting. And imagine the preening between Papelbon and Beckett over who gets the #1 locker stall... except you just know Schilling would come in every day under cover of darkness and rearrange everything to put himself in the first space.

i think pappy's already got the primo locker, the one roger clemens and pedro used. but i also love imagining the diva-fest whenever possible, so.
also, the little tiny cuddly smile at the beginning of that video? squee. thank you.
