You mean Carlos Silva wasn't one of the more dominant pitchers in baseball when he was 8-0 for the Cubs?

You just illustrated my point. Even average pitchers can have dominant stretches.

trying to get danks the win was a bad ozzie move

Trying to get Danks the win? He pulled him once he got people on this inning. Do you really trust this bullpen to hold the Yankees down? If you do, I have a Tony Pena to sell you.

That's as useless of a definition of a dominant pitcher as you could ever come up with.

 

Has he yet to have an outing that wasn't dominant?

 

7 IP, 1 ER, 1 BB, 6 K

6 IP, 1 ER, 1 BB, 7 K

7 IP, 1 ER, 3 BB, 11 K

8 IP, 0 ER, 2 BB, 10 K

 

Every start was dominant. Therefor, he is a dominating pitcher for us.

Start the inning with a reliever as Danks never had it tonight yet Guillen wanted to get him through five and now Edwin Nunez is having a career day.

This team is in DEEP trouble with its current bullpen situation.

 

It's in deep trouble cause the Twins have an incredibly easy schedule the rest of the way and have a far superior pitching now.

Maybe this will finally stop the playoff ticket advertisements that Hawk reads for every game.

 

Might want to start working on 2011 ticket package advertisements now.

 

If that's true, don't waste 4 million dollars and prospects to get Manny for probably 80 at bats.

What's sad is the offense has been mashing. But other than Edwin Jackson, which is shocking, we don't have a reliable starter at the moment.

Our starters started off year struggling, then had that magical 2 month run. However, it seems they've just hit the wall. That's why our start to this season doomed us, as well as the Twins fantastic play since the ASB. If we got off to a decent start this year, our 26-5 run would have given us a lot more breathing room.
