Ya never know if Santos can handle it until you put him out there. I'd give him the benefit of the doubt at this point since really nobody thought he'd be as good as he is anyway. WTF not?!?

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ May 9, 2010 -> 09:15 PM) Just to play Devil's advocate (b/c I wouldn't mind Santos pitching the 9th) but he has only pitched 14 innings in his ENTIRE PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL CAREER. That's really all that needs to be said. But I am cool with it still. I hear what yer sayin...but how many innings had bobby pitched before he was put in that role? Gotta start somewhere I guess...

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 9, 2010 -> 09:01 PM) My vote is Santos, since he reminds me of 05 Bobby. ^^^^ why shake up the whole bullpen when one guy truly (unfortunately you closer) sucks... just switch Jenks and Sergio. Not rocket science.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 9, 2010 -> 05:46 PM) 4) I would absoulutely think about sending Beckham and Ramirez down to Charlotte to play together everyday in a stress-free environment. Kinda hard to send half you infield down isn't it?!? That would be an admission of Epic. Failure!

QUOTE (knightni @ May 9, 2010 -> 03:44 PM) That's true. Lillibridge can hit a lot better than Vizquel... Is Vizquel even necessary on this roster? He supposedly was to be a mentor...of what?!? How to flail at a pitch? Do you really need 2 utility infielders? Hell...if it's necessary...I'd rather seel Morel up than have Vizquel on the roster.

QUOTE (knightni @ May 9, 2010 -> 05:42 PM) Sarcasm, Wanne. gospel!

QUOTE (knightni @ May 9, 2010 -> 02:44 PM) That's true. Lillibridge can hit a lot better than Vizquel... please...I don't want to see Lilly anywhere near the major league roster.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ May 9, 2010 -> 02:11 PM) Drop him down in the order for three weeks. If that doesn't cut it, let him play in AAA, and make Nix the starter. ^^^^^ this. I don't think he per se needs to be sent down for a slump. move him down and take some pressure off. If it continues...then absolutely. The thing about Beckham has always been his confidence. I remember havin' a quick chat with him when he was in the fall league and he said he expected to be called up last season (not his exact words)...but the thing I'm afraid of is killing his confidence completely. It's worked with some guys tho I guess...but it seems Gordo is a different animal.

glad bobby's life is straightened out on a personal level...but his baseball career is in serious jeopardy.

this will go down as the worst loss of the season to date.... most memorable for me anyway.

way to s*** your pants guys!

Sure...let's not use our most effective reliever right now to close. Y

How bad has Jenks got when you're actually happy to see Linebrink?!?!? And who didn't see this coming a mile away?!?

why oh why couldn't he bring in Sergio here?!?

hahahaaaa...SHOCKER!!! f*** ME! Sit the f*** down Jenks!

Oh fer christ sakes....

We very easily could be seeing Bobby's last close appearance here...

And heeeeeeere we go....

Hawk talkin' about Wells like he makes 500K or something...

YEEEEESSSS`!!!!!!

Does Carlos ever look to take the ball the other way?!?

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 9, 2010 -> 02:59 PM) God Hawk STFU, these pitches are strikes. hahaaaa...seriously.

Did they ever show Beckham's check swing?

Come on Paulie...launch one!!!

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ May 9, 2010 -> 02:50 PM) Insurance run and Bobby time. please no...
