June 10, 200421 yr All we need from the 5th starter is 5 IP 3 ER everytime out. If we get that we win 50% of those starts, and we make the playoffs. It is just that simple.
June 10, 200421 yr All we need from the 5th starter is 5 IP 3 ER everytime out. If we get that we win 50% of those starts, and we make the playoffs. It is just that simple. Are you talking 3 ER for the 5 innings which is an ERA of 5.4 or an ERA of 3.0?
June 10, 200421 yr Are you talking 3 ER for the 5 innings which is an ERA of 5.4 or an ERA of 3.0? 3 earned runs in 5 innings= 5.40 era. This team averages 5.8 runs per game. Once you add in unearned runs, the RPG would be about dead even.
June 10, 200421 yr I look forward to Arnie Munoz starting. We can only hope that someone decides to accept the challenge and rise to the occassion. Does anyone know the WGN schedule? I do believe Saturday's game is on WGN.
June 10, 200421 yr 3 earned runs in 5 innings= 5.40 era. This team averages 5.8 runs per game. Once you add in unearned runs, the RPG would be about dead even. I thought that's what you meant. A fifth starter who is .500 is as good as it gets. I would accept a win percentage of .250 to .400 at this point. I'm certain once every guy in AAA, AA, and A have had their chance, Kenny will find someone. I just hope we do not ruin any careers in the process of rushing guys to the Cell.
June 11, 200421 yr Kenny will get someone as soon as someone else is ready to make a deal. Too many GM's are in "wait" mode right now.
June 11, 200421 yr So does tonight's rainout kill Arnie' MLB debut? It puts it on hold at least. I don't think we need a 5th starter til the 17th, and even then, KW mite hav already made a deal for a starter by then.
June 11, 200421 yr So does tonight's rainout kill Arnie' MLB debut? That's what was reported on the news this morning that they aren't using the 5th starter. Now whether this was pure speculation or confirmed by the Sox, I don't know cuz they didn't say.
June 11, 200421 yr Weekend matchups: Fri: Show vs. Wright Sat: Loz vs. Travis Smith Sat: Mark vs. Hampton
June 11, 200421 yr Here's a thought. If Munoz could somehow be "the guy" Kenny wouldn't have to make a deal. Maybe starting the guy here in early June wouldn't be such a bad idea. Unless they know he ain't ready.
June 11, 200421 yr So does tonight's rainout kill Arnie' MLB debut? I would hope so. NOthing against Arnie, but I want to be sure he is ready when he comes up.
June 11, 200421 yr Joe Crede was on the Score this morning Bernstein: So how did the night off last night feel like? Crede: Well we won't have to use our 5th starter? A nice laugh was shared by all
