Kalapse Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Anyone who thinks the Sox can make a run this year with this bullpen is f***ing delusional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scratch thorton off the list of reliable relievers. That leaves us with... just Jenks? Logan, maybe, but its a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fuse is lit. 37-29 now to get to 95 games and a possible playoff spot. They better get a winning quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly....besides for the closer, it's the worst bullpen I've seen in the majors in a long time. I do love letting a lefty start against the 2-3-4 that destroys lefty pitching.

AirScott Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 19, 2007 -> 09:51 PM) Way to bring in Jenks. I don't question this move, if only because just about every manager doesn't use their closer in a tie game in the ninth. But seriously, why is this common practice? If it goes to extras anyway, you're using another pitcher besides the closer if it goes that far. The goal is to not let it (obviously). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitewashed in '05 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 This guy here is just a NICK behind Jenks. It's pretty bad when winning 2 in a row is a big accomplishment that can't even be reached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do love letting a lefty start against the 2-3-4 that destroys lefty pitching. Right now out of 7 slots the Sox have 2 filled, the closer and LOOGY roles are pretty reliable. I don't see how a team can be expected to go 66-29 to finish out the season when 5/7 of the pen is filled with dog s***. This resurgence bulls*** is just f***ing retarded.

Actually it's pretty common practice to use your closer in the top of the 9th in a tie game at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Jun 20, 2007 -> 02:53 AM) Once again, just another step closer until the fire. Amen....if Fields hits a homer and the Sox lose a close game, I'm not going to be upset. I just hope Thome will be able to face the Cubs this wknd. It's probably going to be the last 3 games of the season I really want us to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
