Chopper2Hopper Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 A glimmer of hope with that pitchout, but what was I thinking? Even when we do things right we screw them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory Pratt Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 QUOTE(fathom @ May 20, 2007 -> 01:37 PM) He's such a bad defensive catcher. To be fair, he's only bad at calling games and throwing the ball. Otherwise he's very very good. Actually, I'll defend him. His weak spot is his arm. He's good at blocking and catching. He needs to get better at calling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say pitch calling is his biggest strength still. I remember when Hawk used to say how great he was at doing it....now, you never hear that.

29thandPoplar Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 QUOTE(fathom @ May 20, 2007 -> 01:35 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> All we would have had to do is delay calling up Thome one day, and then send the pitcher down after the game. Adding Thome and dropping Sweeney is of course zero sum. Yes they could've sent Sweeney down and brought up a starter for today instead of Thome. It would've needed to be someone currently on the 40 man, since they're at 40. That would've meant Gavin Floyd, who has been on a pitch count anyways. It really has nothing to do with delaying Thome. Had they wanted Egbert or someone similar, it would've meant clearing a guy off the 40 man. So it was Masset vs. Gavin Floyd and that to me is a damned if you do, damned if you don't.
