fathom Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 7, 2005 -> 02:23 AM) I was talking to the other guy. I'm not mad at Ozzie or Duque. Duque had a QS. He had given up 1 run in 6 innings. You let him stay out there. I get pissed at free passes. Especially in front of Sweeney. That's why i was much more pissed at Cotts. I don't care what he's done this year. He's been great in his situations. But i'm talkin about tonight. I understand getting pissed at a free pass, but it's not like Cotts threw 4 straight pitches over the batter's head. Rather, he hit Guiel with an inside fastball. It happens...especially for someone who has never had pinpoint control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jphat007 Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 6, 2005 -> 08:25 PM) All I know is this is 4 straight starts where Duque has allowed a run in his last inning. Chances are thats true of most pitchers. Thats the reason they get taken out. Especially if they have only given up 1 run in the previous 6 innings.

That funky motion Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 6, 2005 -> 08:21 PM) It's not the panic, it's the fact that Ozzie continues to make the same mistake with Duque in his starts. When everyone but the manager thinks the pitcher should be pulled, it makes you scratch your head. You said it brother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 jphat....how many threads were there on soxtalk the last few days saying that Duque needs to get turned into a 5 or 6 inning pitcher? This isn't just my typical b****ing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think of anyone in the game of baseball who would take Duque out after 6 innings of 1 run ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Stairs is more feared by Ozzie than almost any other hitter in baseball. Seriously, he almost always makes a pitching change late in the game if Stairs is coming up. However, this is Marte's fault, not Ozzie's this inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah, but good teams will keep fighting because they believe they can win almost any game. Bad teams tend to quit unless they catch a break.

WilliamTell Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Doesn't it seem like Marte should have a 5+ ERA. He always walks somebody and it seems like he given up more runs than he has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
