He's trying to get you a better draft pick dammit.

We were bound to lose anyways.

 

Problem is (grand slam leaves just as I'm typing this), Contreras loses any value due to this ballgame.

 

This is just embarrassing. Even if someone were to believe Contreras should have started the inning due to his pitch count, after the first two batters reached, it became more than obvious he should have been removed.

 

So, what excuse does Guillen have for, first, leaving in Contreras after a mound visit; and second, leaving him out following the HBP to load the bases?

 

 

 

This isn't bevington waving in a pitcher who hasn't warmed up.

 

but it's in the same zipcode.

 

what was the point of letting Count pitch the eighth?

 

somebody defend it.

 

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

why the f*** didn't they take him out?

have him give up 10 er

to decrease his trade value!

I'm having a hard time following this with Yahoo and CBS. Is Contreras still out there? WTF? Who hit the homer, Lugo or Youkilis?

 

Lugo...Youk had a Dye like HBP off the bat

Nice first pitch Ehren.

Youk got hit on the handle of the bat which bought Contreras another hitter. That hitter was Lugo. Lugo hit a granny.

This effectivly will end Contreras trade talk

 

If only it could start the Fire Ozzie talk (in the press), then it would be well worth it.

I like the deceptive release.

Ehren!

Nope, it was worse. It could be a 20 million dollar boneheaded decision.

And with that at bat, Wassermann is already one of our most effective relievers.

5-12, 5.76 ERA

 

 

Definately a good $10 mill worth there, top notch KW.

somebody tell wassermann that will never work in this pen.

 

 

I like the deceptive release.

 

Looks like he has some sink. It would be nice to actually have a reliever who can pitch to contact.

He's done nothing but produce, and he's a heck of a story.

Wasserman's success is only making Ozzie's terrible decisions look even worse.

It's too bad....even if we lose this, it seems like we should be 8-1 on this road trip.

Christ, that almost looked easy.

 

That makes no sense at all.

wassy, you're not Bret Prinz or Andy Sisco or David Aardsma.

Wow. This is probably the most baffling game I've ever seen.

Yep, someone who saw a ton of games involving Sox minor leaguers last year thought that Logan and Wasserman were their only relievers in the system who could help. BTW, is he Jewish?

I just can't get over Guillen walking out to the mound, talking briefly to Contreras, and leaving him in.

 

Who cares whether or not he's feeling well? The results on the field suggest something different.

 

No use defending Guillen in any way. This game has beem atrocious to watch.

Congrats to Josh Fields for getting to the 50 k plateau in only 140 at bats.

Too bad we didn't get Marmol instead of Aardsma.

German I believe.
