Colome is a pretty good closer, probably mid-grade, and seems to get better results than you’d expect. He’s not the answer long term but he seems to have the stones to get it done. He doesn’t make me feel like I’m watching Jenks in 05-06, but I’m cool rolling with him all year- he’s earned it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout Friday Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Colome has been nothing short of FANTASTIC this year. The defense let us down in the top and he kept it tied. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
35thstreetswarm Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 I demand we win every game by at least three runs and with error-free play. You know, like the *really* good teams all do. 2 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never been in love with his stuff but he seems ice cold when he’s out there. I guess that counts for something at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's gotten the job done just fine and just pitched over some embarrassing defensive shenanigans to get the win tonight while the team has won 10 of 11 and look absolutely monstrous offensively with a no-fuckin-hitter sprinkled in this week. Let's enjoy it with minimal b****ing for a bit. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been so good he's hasn't gotten the work closers need to stay sharp. He definitely manned up when the score was tied and kept it winnable.

hi8is Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Redemption song. Was watching the game late after pausing it in the 7th yo take hi8is JR. to the pool. Restarted it while we built a science kit and by the top of the 9th we were reading his bedtime books with the game on mute. When the Royals tied it on that awful play, I tossed a book up in the air. Seeing Grandal was leading off the bottom frame, I had a good feeling he would do his part to make things right. Sure enough... game ovah!! Sox win! Sox win! YES!!!

Let's enjoy it with minimal b****ing for a bit. Have the greg observers noticed I'm not b****ing about really anything? You should all take it from me. I think we have a good team so there's no reason to stress about little stuff. When we play bad teams we "usually" win. When we play really good teams we have a real chance of winning. Sox have added some nice pieces. The team is much better than a year ago, especially if the pitching continues to be good against bad teams. Some fans are really freaking out; I'm not one of them. Peace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
