Soxfest Posted April 4, 2004 Share Posted April 4, 2004 If Sox really have to count on Scott S ( I am a reliever dammit ) and Danny W ( Mr. Kerosene ) for very long it is going to kill any chance to win division, hitting will be fine but to score 5 and lose 7-5 with these 2 guys pitching with era's in the 6.00 range and who knows about Jon G in the 3 spot, Sox are going to have to make some kind a deal for another starter or forget it.

So why not score eight and win 8-7?? Hell with pitching and defense...... score some runs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted April 4, 2004 Share Posted April 4, 2004 and who knows about Jon G in the 3 spot, Sox are going to have to make some kind a deal for another starter or forget it. JG -- started 13 games in 2000 @ 20y.o -- rushed to the majors -- -- started 16 games in 2001 @ 21y.o -- ERA under 4 -- 4th on the team in games started -- started 33 games in 2002 -- posted second best ERA among regular starters -- career high in innings pitched -- Breaks camp as #3 starter -- started 32 games in 2003 -- breaks camp as #3 starter ---------------------------- I don't know what worries you about JG... He's only 24, still has plenty of upside, and alreasy is a proven middle of the rotation guy-- With Ozzie hopefully giving him a little bit longer leash, he should be able to eat up some innings this year, in adition to his 65 GS the last 2 seasons.

I am more concerned about SS and DW, I look for JG in his arbitration eligible year finally to improve off 12-12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
