aboz56 Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 Kazmir vs B-Mac Also, should be a pitch limit on McCarthy in the range of 60-70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnB Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 It was about time someone did one. I refuse to let myself start one for obvious reasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm superstitious about it too. I have yet to make a game thread, since being a member at SoxTalk. I don't want to break that. Anyways, I'm excited to see BMac get the start, and to be playing Tampa Bay. Though it's only the Devil Rays, I look forward to these series outside of our division, since they're so rare now. And as Boz stated, BMac better have a tight leash when it comes to the pitch count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the Sun Times: 'I threw 50-something [pitches] the other day [May 10] and still felt strong,'' McCarthy said. ''I was around 80 pitches in spring training, so I can get somewhere in the neighborhood of 60 or 70.'' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be a starter sooner or later, but don't do anything to hurt his arm on this one start. This season's already got to be weird for him, after being a starter all his career.

G&T Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 (edited) That quote is from May 10, and it was about pitching with Haeger. "I threw 50-something (pitches) the other day and still felt strong," McCarthy said of a May 10 relief appearance. "I was around 80 pitches in spring training, so I can get somewhere in the neighborhood of 60 or 70." Has no real affect on this start.

Well I would still expect him to throw 60 or 70 at the most. Nothing would have changed significantly over the course of a few days. It would also be foolish to overuse him when he's going to be back in the bullpen immediately after this start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, I just hope he can get through 6 innings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illinilaw08 Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 I love that BMAC is getting this start. I'll be wearing my BMAC 41 jersey (bought during the playoffs last year) while watching him be efficient for 70 pitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely, but wasn't that ESPN's own Steve Phillips who made the call? when i was watching the Cards Rockies game a while back i recall everyone in the booth ripping him for that.

Especially since it was announced today Zambrano has a career threatening injury. That trade might go down as one of the all time worst ones period one day, Kazmir could be that good. I think B-Mac and the pen will get it done against the struggling Rays bats tonight, but we will have to figure out a way to get a few off Kazmir, which won't be easy. GO SOX!!

I thought it was Phillps too, but the trade was actually made after he was fired. I can't remember who the GM was, but it was a guy that was GM for a short time in between Phillips and Minaya IIRC.

fathom Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 It will be interesting to see what the lineup's like tonight. Lefties don't hit Kazmir very good. However, I can't see Ozzie taking Pods out of the lineup right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
