fathom Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 For those not watching, the Sox actually threw a purpose pitch!! High and in on Rios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 QUOTE (fathom @ May 16, 2009 -> 11:32 AM) I'm fine with it...he didn't seem completely comfortable out there. His velocity was in the 87 mph range. We've used the bullpen a fair amount over the last few games, and IIRC Gavin's up next right? It seems like saving the bullpen by having a guy throw more than 62 pitches isn't the worst idea in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winninguglyin83 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Colon only threw 62 pitches. Is he injured? Or is Cora flexing his muscles and using the underworked pen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like saving the bullpen by having a guy throw more than 62 pitches isn't the worst idea in the world. But we haven't use the big 4 too much. I think they know we have little chance tomorrow. BTW, maybe Colon pulled himself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a beautiful play Toronto attempted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 QUOTE (fathom @ May 16, 2009 -> 01:31 PM) Interesting, never heard that before. I thought the company line was that KW met with Ozzie, and was blown away. Either way, no complaints. The version of the story I heard was that Cito wanted a bunch of money and some front office say. We said no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is Cora flexing his muscles and using the underworked pen? They are trying to go for the win. With the way this team has been going, I can't say that I disagree with them. Usually I would say ride the starter, but we need a win bad, and I feel better with our back four in the pen, than I do with Colon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Still puzzled by our defensive positioning with Chavez up. With Thornton's fastball and Chavez's slow swing, why do you shade him so far up the middle like Getz was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
