It surely doesn't seem like a real bright idea to start a s***ty reliever on two days rest, but, hey, what do I know?
Personally, I think it should be Clayton Richard coming up.

There is no way the Sox bring Jenks in the 8th and have him get an out and than sit in the dugout and pitch the 9th right now. Your options would of been Russell or Massett.
Which is why we need another righty reliever. It's safe to say Linebrink is a huge question mark right now.

I'm starting to think the sooner Twins overtake us, the sooner Kenny will make some moves, which clearly are NEEDED in the long run.
The scary thing is that it seems like more holes are popping up by the day.

We were up 1 in the 8th. Stop getting on Ozzie about a pitching change you thought he should of made in the 4th inning.
Game is on the bullpen and Cox.
Hence the coaching staff comment. Also, we have to be the only team in baseball that doesn't pr for their catcher in the 8th inning in a situation like that. Also, I still feel like Crede should have been guarding the line when German was up.

Game over with Soria coming in. Good job f***ing up a very important game in the standings.
14 straight games our bullpen has allowed a run in. When you couple that with Linebrink obviously having some health issues, I hope KW doesn't overpay for Street.
How about Hillman putting Guillen in LF? I used to think Hillman was one of the worst managers in baseball, but he's kicking the s*** out of our coaching staff today.

so much for our "bad bullpen", dotel and Carrasco were awesome today
Any reason this post couldn't wait until after the game?

Since Im watching on gameday, can anyone explain how Guillen was able to get plunked and Dotel was allowed to stay in the game after both benches were warned earlier?
The pitch was was so close to hitting the bat.
