Javy only 46 pitches through 4. Hitters not seeing many pitches might help him as he goes through the order the third time.

He's doing this with a medicore fastball so far. He just has to keep his offspeed pitches down.

I think the Tv gun is off by about 5 mph

Cleveland up 4-2 in the bottom of the 8th, is Carmona really gonna come in and blow it in the 9th?

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 07:28 PM)

Isn't Mastny their new closer?

 

I've missed the premature "Stretch" call recently.

we need to keep the pressure on here. Now i know the GREAT Matt Guerrier is on the mound , but we need to scratch across a few more runs before this one's through

Hawk with a premature Stretch.

 

He is now getting to Harry Carey status on guessing on fly balls.

Ugh.....Gload JUST misses one.

 

Btw, I missed it, any info on why Radke left? Is it the rotator cuff? He might be done for the year if that's what it is.

Who is that?? Another rookie? Doesn't instill anymore confidence in me, to be honest.

Guerrier has a 1.64 career ERA against the Sox.

Juan Uribe with patience, and a sac bunt tonight, this is looking like Juan of second half '05

 

way to make me eat my words juan, with that eye high fb.

And he used to be ours.

....as he chases ball four.

I've only seen their 'new closer' once, he looked like just a random bullpen goof. So yeah, it's not over.

Uribe's like a dog, he LOVES to chase balls

We traded him for Marte, which I really can't call a bad trade, despite Damaso's struggles last year.

Not to scare everyone, but when the Twins swept us last month they trailed in every single game, all come-from -behind wins. I hope we hold 'em this time.

I am thinking that Brian passes Taz in batting average by the end of the year.

It was a great trade for the Sox.

Guerrier is so good. I was a big fan of his and hated when we dealt him for Marte (obviously that was a good move for us though). But man we are gonna have trouble hitting him, it always seems like we do.

 

Hopefully Javy can stay strong and stay out of the big inning.

that pitch was filth.

Well, Anderson has about 17 starts left this year, so he better get hot.
