PREGAME: Snyder, Tavarez 'disappointed' about being left off postseason roster

BY STEVEN KRASNER

BOSTON -- Decisions have to be made when it comes to putting together a postseason roster, and that means there are going to be some hurt feelings.

Red Sox pitchers Kyle Snyder and Julain Tavarez, who were with the team all year, have been left off the rosters for each of the first two rounds.

''There's some disappointment, there's no way around it for guys who have been with us all year. It's not good news," said manager Terry Francona. "We have to make some decisions. We don't expects those guys to jump up and down and cheer, but we expect them to be professional, which they are, to the n-th degree."

What a slap in the face to Tavarez, who did everything this organization asked of him this year, probably to the detriment of his pitching, and is now being shut out of the post season, while Gagne, who rolled in halfway through the year and has done NOTHING to warrant being on the postseason roster, gets that spot. Nice way to reward a loyal team player, Sox :(
