lol I know I'm in desperate mode but why not bring Shingo back, he can't be TOO much worse than the bullpen right now.

He wouldn't be much worse........

 

Problem is, he'd fit in with the rest of the pack. Giving up hard hit outs, screaming line drives, continually walking batters after getting ahead 0-2, and serving up HR's.

 

Let Shingo stay in Japan.

Mike Gonzalez and Salomon Torres, your Sox jersey's are made...

We couldn't afford Gonzalez (spect wise) even if he were available and Salomon Torres is just bad. He currently has a 1.49 WHIP in the NL, imagine what that would be like against superior competition.

Well yeah we need improvement and Shingo would keep us the same.

Carl Everett and Robbie Alomar should be available any day.

Perhaps he can 'pull an Everett' and grab Marte or Vizcaino again? They seemed to have gotten things back on track.

Vizcaino was never really off the track. He was a good pitcher last year, and trading him wasn't the best thing in the world to do.

It didn't help that the pen also gave up 4 runs today.

3 were by Politte, and 1 given up by Montero. You can pretty much bank on each of them giving up runs when they enter the game. I don't think Ozzie wants to put either in a game that is not decided, and I doubt either will be with the team much longer.

Is Howry doing the Cubs any good?

How bout Howry?

 

Is that stiff Chen on the Orioles capable of middle relief?

Trade some Class A guy for Chen and/or Howry.

Chen is the worst pitcher in baseball right now and Bobby Howry would still be incredibly expensive if you tried to acquire him. Middle relievers with 2.36 ERAs on teams with high payrolls that think they still have a chance to compete do not come cheap.
