Punch and Judy Garland Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 I wondered why Marte went out for the second inning but it made sense. You can't have Shingo or Hermanson throw in 125 games this year so if we keep playing 1 run ball, we'll have to use more guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitetrain8601 Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 I personally didn't want Damaso to go out for another inning. He's my favorite Sox, but he hasn't shown his dominate stuff. He barely survived that inning. He isn't following through on most of his pitches and those are the ones that end up really high or really low.

Chisoxfn Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Apr 23, 2005 -> 06:38 PM) You have my respect. What a gutsy play tonight. Your a gamer, i'll tell you that. He also has his zip back on that fastball and is looking fantastic this year. I absolutely love this bullpen, especially when Shingo gets his stuff together and he will.

Rowand44 Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 24, 2005 -> 10:43 AM) I absolutely love this bullpen Biggest strength on the team, imo. It's quite possibly the deepest bullpen in baseball and we have guys at the backend who can really shut the door especially when shingo starts throwing strikes again, this bullpen is outstanding.

Punch and Judy Garland Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 I'm not ready to call it the deepest bullpen in baseball but it's pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punch and Judy Garland Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Right I would probably go with the pens of Minnesota and Anaheim with maybe St. Louis but our is in the mix if we can do it for a longer period of time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donelly, Shields and Krod are all very good, but aside from that there pen is nowhere near what it was in previous years, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUGGERNAUT Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 For those who don't know, Marte faced a BL, 1 out sit in the B9th last night. A pitch got away from AJ. Marte quickly covered the plate. AJ flipped him the ball. He absorbed a collision from Diaz who was trying to score from 3B. Diaz came right into Marte's leg. He held on to the ball for the 2nd out. With RISP, 2 out he then struck out Marrero to end the inning. After Rowand gave him the lead in the T10th he had an easy B10th to earn the win. The White Sox should put together a media spot on that play. Show Marte at home plate & then show the strike out. That's better stuff than a hollywood script. It's tailor made for the Sox Pride campaign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I would take the a's pen in the present and in the future over ours. They are so ridiculously stacked it is not even funny. I am still gonna make a thread comparing the sox bullpen and theirs at the all star game and bump after the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
