dyuen Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 we won the game because the indians manager is more stupid. bunting when jenks was struggling gave us an easy out and took the bat out of choo's hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrockinMT Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 QUOTE (Kalapse @ May 26, 2010 -> 08:42 PM) I know today wasn't a save opportunity but anyway: Just looking at the 7 games Jenks has saved: 4 of them were 1-run save-opps, 1 game the tying run reached base, 3 games the go ahead run reached based. The other 3 saves were 3-run save-opps, he allowed 1 baserunner in 2 of them and the other was his only perfect save of the year. His 1 blown save was a 1 run save opportunity in which he allowed 4 baserunners and 3 ER without retiring a batter. In other words: he's been walking an ultra fine line in 1-run save opportunities this year. You make the point with those figures and you are right. Jens has been playing with fire all year long. Plus when he does get the save he is still walking that fine line by his walks and hits allowed. Unacceptable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 You guys that hate Jenks fail to consider the fact he normally gets the end result, the game saved. His track record seems to suggest he ain't so good when provided a tie game or huge lead. He did finish the f***ing game, right? We won, right? Why not look glass half full for a change? Kotsay, he of the .225 batting average who guys like me hate on, hit a home run. Teahen, the bum, did get two RBIs. Rios good again. It's like why would anybody even care Beckham sucked again today? We won the game and took 2-3 which is acceptable on the road. We win another series. Those are good signs for this bad team. Now we see if we lose all four in Tampa, win just one, or do the right thing and split. No way this team is capable of 3 of 4 or 4 in Tampa.

We are Greg - people are praising Pena, Teahen, Kotsay, and others for performing well - but Jenks was awful. His track record this year has not been good, period. That's really all that matters. Sure, the game was "saved," but allowing 6 of the first 7 guys you face to reach base is no way to save a game. With his performance today, he would have blown any type of save opportunity that was presented to him. Thankfully, he wasn't presented with an actual save opportunity, and he was able to get out.

greg775 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 (edited) You'd be better off just saying that you refuse to in life criticize any member of the 2005 White Sox, no matter how despicable their current performance is. Bobby Jenks is HORSEf***INGs***. My point is he finished the game and we won the game. I didn't see it, but didn't he ultimately do a nice job to end it when he'd finally blown it to the point it was a one-run game? There are guys on the 2005 roster I didn't like much. I had my share of criticism for Uribe and was in failure of getting rid of him and he's proven me wrong since. He's continued his career. I also didn't like Everett. I also didn't like Harris, Gload, and Pablo. And I hated Vizcaino. I just don't see the point of burying Jenks when he finished the game that we won. He is normally not so good when he enters in a tie game or has a big lead at least it seems that way. --And I forgot to see some of the threads praising the heroes of today's game like Kotsay and Mark T. My bad. People have the right to bash Jenks for today, I was just pointing out in my case I won't because he finished and we won.

WCSox Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 If I'm Kenny Williams and I see Joe West messing with my team in the future, I just might casually bring up the possibility of forfeiting games where he's behind the plate. That might prompt MLB to do something about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year hasn't come out of nowhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
