LVSoxFan Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 So out of curiosity, how many blown games for our bullpen this year so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 02:43 PM) I don't care if he sticks up for them publically or not....it's just that he keeps putting players out there who are clearly not 100 pct to struggle. He left Pods out there to die last year, and he's doing the same with MacDougal this year. ... Not to mention Politte and Cotts last year and Marte in 2005.

elrockinMT Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I have been listening onXM radio and can't stand this debacle any longer. This bullpen is full of little league pitchers. We better start seing some new blood brought in here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 QUOTE(TheOcho @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:42 PM) Oh bulls***. No matter what, Danks was a great pickup. Of course...I meant for the 2007 season though. You know, the season KW said he wouldn't forget about when making moves this offseason. Danks and Jenks are the two players I actually enjoy watching these days.

elrockinMT Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Am I right that this pen just gave up 8 runs to Toronto? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Aardsma gave up 5 runs in 1 inning, and 2 of the 3 outs were a bunt and a baserunning play after a 2 run hit. Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Here's Aardsma's problem -- his fastball has no movement, his fastball has lost velocity since last season, and unlike earlier in the season there's no command or offspeed pitches to speak of. I thought this game was supposed to give us a spark -- what happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitoMB345 Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 yes, more runs on Aardsma! Na na na na...... na na na na..... HEY HEY HEY! GOOD BYE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Any of these motherf***ers that doesnt take a pitch at least down by a ton of runs should be released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagotony06 Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I really don't think you can do anything with this bullpen to help it. I'm not sure what KW can do to fix it. This was his baby in the offseason, and he f***ed it up then. What makes anyone think he can fix it now on the fly!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't take any pride in saying things that come true if you know they'll upset people. Why not? If they are going to be assholes, I have no problem following suit.

Danks and Jenks are the two players I actually enjoy watching these days. the rotation in general has been good to watch also, i mean, if they pitched like they did last year and we struggled to find a 5th starter ala 01-04, can you imagine where we would be right now, with having this horrid bullpen and the worst offense in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chisoxfan79 Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 07:44 PM) The saddest thing about this whole bullpen thing is if you combined the Sox bullpen and Cubs bullpen, you would still only have Bobby Jenks as a good reliever. Maybe Dempster. Why does Chicago always suck with bullpens and places like San Diego and Minnesota make it look so easy when they sign journey men guys who do amazing? Its gotta be the maanger doing his job and putting guys in the right position to succeed, right? I would have to agree besides that game against the Mets Dempster has been fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the options Ozzie was provided were a washed-up Riske, a near the end Nelson, Montero, Politte and Tracey. You can't make filet mignon out of mince-meat.
