I'm in total agreement with Ozzie's move.

 

Politte has been, in my mind, the best righty reliever the Sox have had this year.  Better than Hermy. 

 

Didn't work out.  Oh well.

 

You have a closer for a reason...to get three outs in the 9th when you have a lead. Not only that, but why Marte instead of Cotts here?

THIS IS SO f***IN STUPID, I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER BEEN THIS PISSED OFF AT OZZIE.  DUSTIN HAS BLOWN ONE f***IN SAVE, GIVE HIM THE f***IN BALL. f***IN IDIOT

 

 

Dustin probably hurt his back...

Matusi destroys lefties, but I bet Ozzie knew that too.

he is your closer for a reason. Let him fail if he has to but bring him in.

PARTY MARTY BETTER PITCH WITH A PAIR.

 

WE NEED A LOOGY SO BAD. MARTE HAS A HARD TIME THROWING STRIKES TO LEFTIES.

Er, that, or Hermanson's back is flaring up.

 

If it ain't.

If Hermanson blows a 2 run lead, you tip your cap to the Yankees and go get them in extras or the next game.

Your team will not be good with Gload as your starter.

Exactly, and the other alternatives besides a trade on the FA market aren't looking very appealing, unless dye moves to 1st.

Ok so don't look at all of his countless good posts around PHT an why he's a mod. And you don't everyone to look at all of your posts believe me.

I could give a s*** less. If you like being badgered with comments about "being an unknowledgable dumbass," congrats to you.

See, I don't get dragged into the whole 'closer' stuff.

 

Use your best reliever in crucial situations. I'd say that Politte vs. A-Rod is a better matchup than Hermy vs. A-Rod, just 'cause, IMO, Politte > Hermanson.

 

Didn't work out.

Marte over Hermanson..?

 

Then, he should use Jenks if Hermie is hurt.

I just know Marte is going to blow it - I am not being negative..just preparing myself..

He might be hurt.

Matsui kills LHP and Marte can't get LH out.

 

GOOD COMBO

Marte walks 2 batters.

 

Over/under?

Ok, if Dustin is hurt I apologize. But if he isn't htis is f***in dumb, real f***in dumb.

Just remember this: Cotts hasn't allowed a run in 15 outings.

Woah. Maybe he's not hurt.

He's hitting .338 against LHP with 7 of his 17 homers in less than half the at bats. You make a great point.

And Dustin's warming up. WHAT THE f*** OZZIE.

 

1 down. cmon 2 more.
