TaylorStSox Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 QUOTE (Jake @ Aug 31, 2012 -> 08:39 PM) Thornton was not a good matchup for these guys. They're all fastball hitters. And doesn't throw ground balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 31, 2012 -> 08:39 PM) Did A.J. seriously call a fastball down and in to Young? Is he trying to throw the game? That's straight up suicidal. Â What's suicidal is bringing in Matt Thornton when no team is leading by least 6 or 7 runs. Matt Thornton is absolutely human garbage and should never be trusted with any sort of situation that has the slightest inkling of importance. I'd prefer if I never had to see his sorry ass again. Today is the last day for playoff-implicating roster changes. Cut this piece of s*** and find someone in the minor leagues who happen to wear a glove on his right hand.
