CubKilla Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 If you look at his stats you will be totally fooled. He is at his best when he's put in there in a make-work appearance with a big lead but when he has a 1 or 2 run lead to protect he wets his pants and goes all to pieces. He's worthless. Great point. Botch is usually money when he's brought in in a blow out and can get an opportunity to pad his stats. Botch is usually money for the opposition when he's brought in in a save situation and the opposition gets an opportunity to pad their stats.

southsideirish Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Durazo? Broken Bat Single. Ball through Sandy's wickets. He goes to 2nd with one out. Another Broken Bat and Rowand cant pick it up. Sometimes, s*** happens. You are right on there. Plus why put the blame all on him? We had the bases loaded and couldn't scor ein 2 consecutive innings. Then we had Crede on 2nd with 1 out and on third with 2 out and couldn't score him. It was our situational hitting not getting it done. Is he partially to blame? Of course, but he shouldn't be shouldering all of the responsibility for this pathetic loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Rhodes 1.72 WHIP Rhodes 4.43 ERA Now with those numbers, can someone explain to me why we only used 4 outs in the last two innings of yesterdays game. We gave away 2 outs with a bunt in each inning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
