June 24, 20241 yr The Mets are 9-2 since Grimace graced their mound An absolute phenom We once asked, where's our Liriano? Then we got him and he sucked. But, in a season of despair, where is our Grimace?
June 24, 20241 yr Oh man this reminds me of the crazy McDonalds thread from back in the day. One of the top Soxtalk threads ever, up there will the attack thread on Mark Buerhle.

On 4/21/2004 at 2:36 AM, C.Rector said: Following is the the three year decline of starter Mark Buehrle as evidenced by his stats from 2001, 2002 and 2003 (in order): ERA: 3.29, 3.58, 4.14 K/BB: 2.63, 2.20, 1.95 K/9IP: 5.12, 5.05, 4.65 BAA: .230, .260, .278 Buehrle’s decline is an indication that his arm is getting progressively tired. One would think that the Sox would opt to limit Buehrle to no more than 5 innings per start or to a strict pitch limit in the 75-100 range or perhaps even place him in the bullpen in order to at least lengthen out his quality service for the team. This is especially the case since Buehrle recently signed a 3-yr. $18 Mil. in guraranteed money contract with the Sox. However, the Sox have not evinced any awareness of Buehrle’s decline and appear to have their problematic pitcher on course towards lengthened stays on the mound. Up until last night's disaster at Comiskey Park vs. the Yankees, Buehrle was throwing an average 112 pitches per game. Folks, this is Dusty Baker territory. Unless Guillen institutes a strict pitch count on Buehrle, his decline will only continue to worsen. Two of my other all time favorite Soxtalk threads.

June 24, 20241 yr Ans: Whenever the Sox offense comes up...bullpen enters or Getz/Grifol (especially) speak to the public. Edited June 24, 20241 yr by caulfield12

Sounds like that radio call-in guy from early last year that got run on all the Chicago sports radio outlets/call-in shows. What was that dude's name again, the one that just trashed almost everything about the organization from top to bottom?

I’m left wondering if his limousine business was more successful in 2011. Had to downgrade to third base side seats, Uber and Lyft took the home plate seats from him.
