Well, Shingo's 2 blown saves in his MLB career are both by Cleveland. Maybe Cleveland just owns him like Boston owns Mariano Rivera. Maybe we should just not pitch him against Cleveland.
Actually, we should have won yesterday and we did win. Wickman sucks and he was throwing meatballs to our hitters. Shingo is better than Wickman and he should not have served up 3 solo homeruns.
Cotts was shaky as hell, remember? He put runners at the corners. Also, if Ozzie had left Politte in the game he would have had to face Hafner, a power-hitting lefty. Where were you, man?
The funny thing is that everyone ripping on Ozzie for using too many relievers never said a word about it when he made the pitching changes. The fact is that Shingo blew the game. How was Ozzie supposed to forsee that happening? Hindsight is a great thing, isn't it?
Good lord, even the rest of the team can't help Vizcaino...
