kitekrazy Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Aug 23, 2010 -> 10:42 AM) I don't agree with this logic at all. Sure, I thoroughly enjoyed that run, but it doesn't make up for yet another disappointing season. Maybe that hot streak made people forget their own preseason expectations. Have the "best pitching staff" in baseball was suppose to eliminate the need for a base clogging DH. Getting Teahan and Pierre didn't make me say "wow" but more like "wft"? I never liked Pierre but he's won me over. Good pitching doesn't exist without good D, which doesn't point to Teahan. Defense has always been Kenny's least priority and it's even more evident in the farm system. Jones and Visquel were another one of Kenny's "lightning in a bottle" acquisitions. Can't complain about Visquel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitekrazy Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 23, 2010 -> 01:54 PM) the Jackson deal which was dumb. That deal meant nothing. Pitcher for pitcher. I thought that too but you got a starter with more big league experience than trusting Hudson in a race. We never get to hear about the deals Kenny couldn't make because the asking price may have been too high. If you are a GM, you want Kenny to part with that wicked rookie pitcher.

LVSoxFan Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Stan you're right in that no, I don't remember any recent time where we were involved in SO many extra-inning or one-run games and lost most of them. That is weird. And new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
