ottawa_sox Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 (edited) QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 1, 2006 -> 10:09 PM) Which is why people should really appreciate the way they performed last season. Exactly - they were insanely consistent last year. They can still have a championship team here even thought they are faced with a few more problems to iron out. They just have to hang in there and get hot at the right moment Edited June 2, 2006 by ottawa_sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 QUOTE(Sox It To Em @ Jun 1, 2006 -> 09:07 PM) Well said. How many relievers are out there that are consistently good every year? Not very many. That's how an organization makes mistakes they'll never forget. It's a bad equation when a team is desperate for pitching, another club knows it -- requires top prospects--, and the pitcher traded for fails to perform. With bullpen pitchers it's more than likely going to backfire. Someone needs to tell Wilder to kick some of those scrubs we call pitching prospects in the ass. If anyone of them had a decent fastball, or halfway decent control, a good secondary pitch, or any combination, we wouldn't be in this mess. There'd be no need for Jeff Nelson or Boone Logan. We wouldn't have to be talking about trades midseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 QUOTE(JimH @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 02:11 AM) I really think where they miscalculated was thinking McCarthy could fill Hermanson's role. He may yet but it's not been promising thus far. Exactly...our biggest problem is the lack of a righty set-up man. I know people are going to be jumping off bridges tonight, but I think we should be thrilled with where we are in the standings, considering the way the season has gone so far.

Sox It To Em Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 (edited) Well, at least we're going home now. All we can do tonight is hope that Mariano Rivera can close it out against Detroit. Edited June 2, 2006 by Sox It To Em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 This is at worst the second best Sox team this century, and perhaps in my life. I'm not ready to give up on them. I'll take out position right now over just about every AL team. Can anyone honestly say the Indians are in better position? Twins? Would you rather be cheering Maggs and the Tigers? Enjoy June and July, start to worry a week or so after the AS break. Until then, Don't Worry, Be Happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not exactly thrilled that our club is responsible for bringing Cleveland back into the race. Considering tonight's blowup by the bullpen, I'm not happy about where our confidence is heading. Should I expect that our bullpen will rebound? Atleast with the rotation I have that reassurance they will rebound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winninguglyin83 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 remember cleveland just sucked against Detroit next week. the season ebbs and flows. we need to get another bullpen arm and fx CF Several guys at Charlotte have pitched OK. I don't understand why they don't give Phillips or Lopez or Tracey a chance. nope Yankees giving him the night off its Farnsworth against the top of the order.
