fathom Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 QUOTE (letsgoarow @ Aug 25, 2008 -> 10:25 PM) Horacio Ramirez is starting the first game Ugh, why? We have Carrasco or Thornton in the pen. With Richard on the mound in game 2 and CQ up in the bottom of the inning, we should be doing everything we can to get 3 quick outs. Instead, we're putting a guy on the mound who's been giving up about 2 hits per inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 The fact we're pitching Ramirez instead of Thornton makes me think that Thornton asked for another day off. That's the only possible reason I could think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Well Horacio has a good opportunity today to show that he is to be trusted as big time reliever for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets hope he can have a good inning, but they are sending up some good hitters. Huff has been great this year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the only possible reason I could think of. That's EXACTLY why the Sox should've called up Broadway instead of activating Crede. We could've easily been able to go a couple days with one less fielder until it's time for call-ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's my thinking though...this is like the top of the 9th in a home game where you pitch your closer to give yourself a chance at the win. If Ozzie wants a lefty on the mound, then I don't think there's any question Thornton is your guy. We'll have Jenks and Dotel available later tonight anyways. I just hate using our worst reliever in such a big situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
