fathom Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Well, at least we have another righty in the bullpen. I'm happy we traded Hudson for a righty long reliever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 QUOTE (Jake @ May 28, 2011 -> 02:03 PM) That's a pretty nice adjustment by Bautista. Not a bad pitch, but you have realize that he knows your plan is to use all offspeed. Get a fastball inside there. Sneaking a fastball by him = fail.

fathom Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Edwin gets very few swings and misses on his fastball. To not throw an 0-2 slider there to Hill is crazy on AJ's part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxsider11 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 At least with jackson in the pen we get to see pena in more 1 inning late game situations. Gulp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soxsider11 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Balta i was saying it would allow oz to use pena in different situations because edwin would be long relief. Like 8th inning holds which he seems to love to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like 8th inning holds which he seems to love to do. Right now, Pena is getting used in 8th inning close games because we have a 6 man bullpen, with 3 lefties who can't be counted on. Pretty much, if we want an 8th inning pitcher, it's Crain right now, and he simply can't go every day; we need him when we have a tight lead to bridge to Santos. I'd expect Jackson to slide into the role that Pena filled yesterday if he went to the pen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, Pena shows up in close games by default. Crain is getting used heavily already, and the only other righty in the pen is the Closer. The real problem is that the 2 lefties who used to be able to get out everyone (Thornton and Sale) can't get a righty out to save a life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
