Hideaway Lights Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 QUOTE(fathom @ May 18, 2007 -> 02:59 PM) No, but we won virtually every close game we had. We probably have more blown saves this year than we did in all of 2005. My grandma could have managed a team well with 3 lights out relievers. Is this coming from the same guy who basically invented the "choke" avatar in 2005? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ok, as long as our pitching does well, Greg Walker's job will be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 18, 2007 -> 04:01 PM) I really wish we hadn't blown so many games. We'd seriously be in first place. Good job! No team that gives up more runs that it scores has ever finished in first, probably not even in 2nd. We're simply not that good. Our offense is the worst in the AL, and our bullpen is tied for 2nd in blown saves. We're exactly where we belong with our strong starting pitching (20 something starts of 6+ innings) and good defense...it's cancelled out by our offense and bullpen.

Hideaway Lights Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 we still don't have Jim Thome or Scott Podsednik, and we just got back a backup catcher capable of hitting at the major league level a little patience beyond one game would be completely refreshing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Ryan "The Natural" Sweeney is now down to .200. Well, at least he has SOME clue at the plate, watching Terrero up there with Hall at 2B was laughable. And Erstad's now 4 for 34 against LHP. Great AB against Lilly, although a good LF catches that ball that Darin hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KW should have never brought him back, as he's as fragile as Barbaro. As for Thome....it's hard to put a lot of faith in a 36 year old power hitter who swings very hard with a rib cage injury.
