wilmot825 Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I was so happy to see Hermanson come out of the bullpen and work a perfect inning....Good For him and us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Yeah that sinker in the 9th to end it was sick too. He had been doing pretty well in Charlotte for a rather long period of time. I'm slightly surprised they didn't want to give him a shot earlier with the current bullpen woes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeBatterz Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 This was a perfect no pressure situation to get him some work. Let's hope he starts contributing on a regular basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 QUOTE(rangercal @ Sep 7, 2006 -> 11:15 AM) aside from the first guy you face in over a year is big papi Which makes it even more perfect. WTF happens if Papi hits a homer? Boston's only down by 6 then? Put him in a game where he'll face good hitters with no real consequences at all. Ozzie managed the bullpen well...that's like the 3rd time this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I love Hermy; it's good to see him back up with the club, even if it's just for a brief amount of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I must say, Hermy brings back some of that 2005 white sox feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 QUOTE(danman31 @ Sep 7, 2006 -> 10:38 AM) Yeah that sinker in the 9th to end it was sick too. He had been doing pretty well in Charlotte for a rather long period of time. I'm slightly surprised they didn't want to give him a shot earlier with the current bullpen woes. because if he gets called up and someone else gets sent out, that player can't be on the playoff roster. This way either Hermy or a guy like Riske can go to the playoffs if we make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Hermanson still can't pitch 2 days in a row from what I heard. I must say he looked a lot better than I thought he would last night. Of course it was garbage time. I can't see him being on the playoff roster, if the Sox are fortunate enough to require one, if he can only pitch 1 inning and need a day off. It really could put you in a bind. I've stated it many times before, my hat's off to him. Most would have just had their paychecks forwarded to their home. He stuck it out, and deserves any good that comes his way. I just don't really think it would be too wise to have to rely on him at this point.

If Hermy does well in Sept, I could see him seeing a roster spot if the sox are playing in Oct. Riske hasn't thrown meaningful innings in a while.

That funky motion Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Hermanson helped Ozzie out last year, there is no way Ozzie leaves out one of his kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitewashed in '05 Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I have so much respect for Hermy. That guy did a lot for our team last season. Starting with getting us out of jams early in the season with Shingo and throwing 20 something innings of scoreless ball, taking over as a closer and doing a great job, then preparing Jenks for the job. This year sticking it out and trying all season long. Much respect to Hermy and I hope he continues to recover. I will give him a standing ovation when he comes in at home if I'm at the game.
