Butter Parque Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 I think he'll get about 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 Depends on his condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkokieSox Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 He should be able to perform well, but it's going to come down to how well he locates his pitches. If his fastball is down again, it's not the end of the world, as long as he can locate his other repertoire of pitches, including mainly his sinker and curve.

EvilJester99 Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 I think he will be better than last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 Probably around 22-30 saves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 All I know is this is going to be a good thread to look back on, cause either were all going to look like idiots and he is just going to be like last season, or he is going to back and have like 40. Should be interesting. Excellent idea... And so I'll make a prediction. Koch has an issue. Something's wrong in that arm of his. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilJester99 Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 I was thinking more like something wrong in that head of his. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilJester99 Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 See what I mean... he is a friggin nut. LoL Hopefully his arm is better this year though. I know they said his elbow wasn't right all last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilJester99 Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 Maybe he should pitch with those glasses on. Might freak people out enough to give him an edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkokieSox Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 They were saying all last year that nothing was wrong with his arm, and they couldn't figure out why he lost velocity. They changed his approach and nothing, but they said he was healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 Are we suppose to add his major league saves and his minor league saves or do you want them split out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac9001 Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 Since his fastball is only 90-91 MPH right now, i'm gonna say he'll lose his closer job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkokieSox Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 Koch 1-2-3 in the 7th today against the D-Backs. 2 strikeouts, nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldmember Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 i voted for and hope he gets at least 21-30 saves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 91? Is that confirmed? Man I was hoping for a big rebound. I hate to say it but, could he have been "working out" extra special when he had the heater really going? i.e. before we got him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ishmookie Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 he looked good today. however i dont think his velocity will ever return to where it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Do the saves he should get in Charlotte count? If not I'll say 0-10. :puke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 6 saves for Billy. Bullpen by committee. GO SOX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Though we have Shingo and Marte, I feel Koch will rebound enough to keep this spot and save about 25 games or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
