Conteras usually has one Bad inning every game, usually 3rd inning lets just hope this is it LOL

 

On a side note I love the fact we are Hitting the Ball and not just watching it blow past us... Hitting, even if grounding out, gives us a better change to get well more hits..

Being a Yankee fan I have seen alot of that s*** from Contreras  :puke

:rolly

 

I think you saw it quite a bit from over-the-hill Randy Johnson as well, huh? Like four Sox homers against him in one inning? This is not the same Contreras that pitched for the Yankees.

Being a Sox fan, I've seen Contreras blossom into a guy who was one of the best pitchers in baseball in the second half and a guy who has been outstanding in the playoffs.

Yeah I'm impressed.

 

 

But Some people just can't handle the pressure in New York

 

 

take Contreras, Vazquez, Beltrain, Mo Vaughn, Jeromy Burnitz amd Roberto Alomar as examples

I hate it when the wind blows out. Both homers normally would not have been

 

Both balls were hammered. I think we've seen enough games at the Cell to know the ball doesn't fly out when it's cold out. Even Ensberg got the good part of the bat on that fly ball, he just had nothing behind it.

Clemens gets the 3-1 pitch from the ump that wasn't a strike, and Contreras didn't get the call on the first pitch to Lamb.  One of my biggest concerns coming in here was the strike zone that Clemens typically gets.

 

Average BB/9 is 3.2

 

Joe West - 3.4 BB/9  (high side of average). 

 

Derryl Cousins - 4.1 BB/9 (very high)

Not good for pitchers.

 

Jerry Layne - 3.5 BB/9 (high side of average)

 

Angel Hernandez - 3.2 BB/9 (average)

 

Gary Cederstrom - 3.2 BB/9 (average)

 

Jeff Nelson - 3.0 BB/9 (low side of average)

Or maybe it's because Mel Stottlemyre is a horrible pitching coach and didn't realize that Contreras was tipping his pitches with the Yankees. There's a reason Georgie-boy wants our pitching coach, Don Cooper.

You're welcome to be here, but just know we probably aren't going to be super friendly if you're here to point out our weaknesses during a period of super freakedoutedness.

 

Plus Contreras is not the same pitcher he was for the Yanks.
