During his weekly appearance on Mohegan Sun Sports Tonight, Red Sox closer Jonathan Papelbon praised the Tampa Bay Rays . . . but also warned that he and his teammates haven't forgotten the bad blood between the teams.

Papelbon on the fight:
"In my opinion it is a bunch of bull what they did. All I got to say is what comes around goes around. Payback is a bitch. In my opinion, and the way I feel right now, this thing isn’t all settled and done. We still got to play them a few more times and I know when we go into Tropicana things will be a little different than when went in there last time."

Papelbon on the Rays staying in the race:
"Those guys have a lot of talent over there. As you can see, it’s a war when we go play those guys. It’s the big leagues and you got guys that can pitch over there and you got some guy that can hit so we’ve got to do everything we can to stay atop of those guys and keep fending them off because they can play."
