he leads the al in saves. he has an era of 2.80. he's 21 of 24 in save opps. he pitches much more meaningful innings than politte. sorry if i failed to mention that.
Meaningfull innings as in the 5 times Politte has pitched in a tie and got the win?
QUOTE(jerseysox @ Jun 28, 2005 -> 04:40 PM)
yep, all he does is close games. that's not important. pitching well in the 7th and 8th -- now that's what really counts. you got me. a fantastic argument.
In what way is getting 3 9th inning outs more important than 3 9th inning outs?
QUOTE(jerseysox @ Jun 28, 2005 -> 04:35 PM)
holy crap. so let's reward the guy who's too scared to close games by making him an all-star.
seriously, i don't know what else to say.
QUOTE(jerseysox @ Jun 28, 2005 -> 04:31 PM)
if he was as good as you claim he is, he would be closing games.
NO NO NO
He doesn't close because he doesn't have the mentality, why is that hard to understand?
QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 28, 2005 -> 04:21 PM)
Nah. They are top 5 for sure. Maybe top 3. I gotta give Minny the best bullpen honors.
Is Minny's better because they have a worse ERA, WHIP, K/BB, K/9, BAA, OPSA?

He was talkin on his phone the whole time and just signed a bunch of his picture things before people got there and just handed them to us as we walked by. Seemed really cocky.
OH NOES
YOU MEAN HE TOOK THE TIME OUT OF HIS DAY TO DO SOMETHING AND HE DID A HALF ASSED JOB?
BANISH HIM TO HELL

So anyone ever had a gingivectimy? Yeah - I spelled it wrong, so sue me.
:banghead :finger :headshake :puke
Well that f***ing sucked.
I've never been so numb in my life. BLAH Ya know that muscle that connects your to tounge to the bottom of your mouth? Well I had that snipped-wow. Also snipped the part that connects the top of your upper gums to your lip. Not to mention having my gums contoured with a laser.
Other than that - life is good.

I know you were joking but I had to look it up, this yr 3-1 5.60 ERA in day games this season. Career 21-20 5.10 ERA in day games!!! Career vs the Cubs 2-3 6.48 ERA. Prior career vs the Sox is 2-0 3.79 ERA
I know, he does. I wasn't joking.

Watching the Twins/Brewers game, the Brewer announcers are talking up how their young guys are ready to come up, including Prince Fielder. Possibly making Overbay available in the off season. Anyone for letting Paulie walk and getting Lyle? I would in a sec.
LOL I wouldn't even have to think about that.
Brign on Lyle.

Finally, a stat that no one can be negative about. Maybe we won't hear of the forthcoming gloom and doom in this game thread?
Hate to say it but - he sucks in day games.
Garland has got to step up and win the Sox the season series vs. the Cubs.
I am willing to bet don't put up more than 3 on Prior. Garland needs to be awesome.
GO GET EM JON!
