I'd like to take this opportunity to comment about Cooper. In Seattle, Thornton s***s himself with this situation. In Chicago, he makes things work.

I'm not as high on Coop as most people. Why can't he fix Judy and Cliff?

I am baffled.

Besides Jenks, his options are pretty slim. I don't know if Toronto has a lefty on the bench, but if he brings in Nelson and Toronto pinch hits a lefty, the odds go to Toronto. If Politte comes in, if Toronto signs me and sends me to bat, the odds are in Toronto's favor.

Judy has no balls.

 

Cliff has lost a few mph on his fastball. You look a lot better popping the mitt at 94-96 with a slider at 88. When you are at 90-91 and your slider is still at 88 there is not enough differential in those pitches.

Coop's a good pitching coach. He's not a miracle worker. He's just like most coaches and managers, they get way too much credit when things go right, and take on way too much blame when things are bad.

Judy has balls, he's just a flake.

If the Sox don't want a flake then they should trade him.

I happen to think his performance last postseason earns him 5 more years

in my mind.

He was AWESOME.

By the way, Thornton's 3.77 ERA is exactly the ERA that Damaso Marte had last year. Hmm.

 

I dont think Thornton however is going to quit the team in September like Marte did. So we are better off.
