my bad... when you said Big Mo i thought that meant Olivo and btw... im pretty sure Foulke would have been gone no matter what

and if Koch wouldnt have had that first bad outing this year his era would be like 2.70 with a great whip and all that Its been posted already.. go find it if you feel like it

Look... Koch is our closer So b**** all you want, but next time theres a save opportunity Koch WILL be out there to get the save...

Why?? So we have NO CLOSER because Foulke sure as hell wouldnt still be here.. No Foulke, no Cotts, No Koch, No Olivo If you would give anything to have that trade re done then you must have something wrong with you

Koch doesnt suck... your opinion doesnt make that true 7 saves in 9 chances... that is not a bad ratio..

haha... great stuff

The All Star game IS a joke.. The fans should have NO SAY in who goes to the all star game.. It needs to be based on individual statistics.. those who are having seasons deserving of all star status should be on the all star team second, every team should not be required to have a representative.. Oh wow, the Pirates send Mike Williams and his 5.75 ERA! Yeah thats a slap in the face of all stars everywhere.. If your team doesnt have someone who is deserving to be an all star then sorry... better start making smarter choices, maybe thats why your team is in last place.. and again... I think the game needs to be at the end of year to determine the TRUE all stars and not people who start hot then fizzle off to nothing by years end... just some suggestions that could help the ole mid summer classic

lol... send some pointers this way

Man this sucks.. if hes out 4 - 7 weeks thats gonna hurt this team big time

I just got home from work and glancing at some of these new posts it would appear Maggs is on the DL... but I havent seen any definate asnwer is he or is he not?? Just wondering because im getting mixed signals

Maggs needs to get his ass back in the line-up

I bet we can send them Maggs, Honel, Reed, and Borchard for Garcia, Ichiro, and Guardado seems fair to me

Good point man, I didnt think of it that way

Willie is a straight PIMP you know hes got the ladies

Props to Knightni for making me this badass Sig

Same here... I am one of the few that have supported Koch since Day one and will continue to support him...

I am not saying anything bad about Shingo, he has been lights out so far but Juan Uribe was batting .380 at one point this year and now hes almost down to just .300 but again, I am noit bashing Shingo NOR saying he has to be sub 1.50... i am just saying I dont think he will finish like that

I said ide like to see him FINISH with a sub 1.50 ERA before I think that he is all great

Why are you all obsessed with Shingo?? No one has ever seen him before, thats why he is so great right now... I give him props for the STATS so far but until he finishes the year sub 1.50 ERA I am not making up my mind

I still support Koch and like i have already asked you in at least three different threads... what are you complaining about?? Cause he has 2 blown saves?? His era is 4.19???? you got nothing

dude this is pointless... Koch isnt even having a bad year... yet people around here wont be satisfied till he NEVER blows a save and has an ERA under one.. its pathetic

4.19 ERA and only 2 blown saves... why are you complaining again? Oh because he blew his second save... ahh i see... yeah, thats horrible.. wow... sometimes you people amaze me... does nothing make you happy?

Yeah Koch is pure s***?? Where are all the Adkins sucks posts? He gave the walk off...

actually you must be a dumbass for not realizing that was sarcastic... especially after seeing what I said you everyone who said a comment like that about Koch... Try to think there before opening your mouth...

you damn right Rhodes isnt Gagne.... Rhodes isnt even Koch... Rhodes 4.87 ERA 1 - 3 Record 8 Saves 4 Blown 20 K's Koch 4.19 ERA 1 - 0 Record 7 Saves 2 Blown 23 K's
