Omogrosso USED to have an elite fastball before his injuries.

 

No longer THAT version.

 

Poor Nate Jones, wallowing in the bullpen.

 

 

 

Should have just sacrificed this game and started Omogrosso and had Nate Jones/Veal relieve him, lol.

If this was Ventura's bold managerial move lurking in the weeds.

 

And the team DOES HAVE AN OFF-DAY tmrw. SIGH.

Wow can someone slap Robin in the face then fire him

 

Nothing like waiting until Jones has no breathing room to bring him in. Ventura absolutely got caught sleeping there, and had to waste more time to get Jones up.

I still think Omogrosso has a place on this team. But yeah, he has to be protected a bit.

 

Robin is trying to get a two-day break for a taxed back end of bullpen so without a lead, the only guys available are Omo, Veal, and Jones

More evidence for the Ventura Bullpen Mismanagement Archives.

I don't get what RV is doing here?? He knows it is a one run ball game with the heart of their line up right

We already won the series and we're losing this game. You don't bring out the big dogs unless its must win or you're already winning.

0-4 with a high five ERA. Are we still high on Nate Jones on soxtalk?

 

 

Nope. But long-term, you have to hope he's part of the solution because we can't afford to find a replacement....you don't trade the likes of an Erik Johnson to fix a bullpen problem.

Couldn't disagree more. You have tomorrow off and your starting pitcher gave you 6 innings. You should be able to piece together 3 innings from your bullpen. Omogrosso had no business starting this inning. If the score was something like 5-1 going into this inning, then that's fine.

Really? off day tomorrow and we need as many wins as possible. I am sorry but I would of rather used Jones then a AAA pitcher at best.
