JorgeFabregas Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 QUOTE (Texsox @ Aug 14, 2008 -> 12:11 PM) call up jitters + a defensive miscue. Let's hope he settles down. There is a lot of pressure on his shoulders. Who's to say that it's call up jitters and not just that he isn't very good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 14, 2008 -> 06:14 PM) Call me crazy, but if a guy hasn't been able to get people out for a couple months in AAA, chances are he will have trouble getting people out in the major leagues. This one is on KW. It feels like we're simply just giving this game away in order to keep Carrasco in the bullpen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 QUOTE (Texsox @ Aug 14, 2008 -> 06:15 PM) They should cut him now. Good one...or maybe just realize that until he can get hitters out in the minors again, he should be nowhere near their major league roster?

The offense needs to step up that is why the starters are in there. Kyle Davies on the road should be pounded. The last two games were nice but not for the terrible defense in the 8th both games are 4-0 not real inspiring. The Royals offense is not so great that Broadway shouldn't be able to give 5 innings of 5 run ball which the offense should be able to overcome althoug hAlex Gordon just took an inning away from Broadway right there. No tipping the f***ing hat today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankensteiner Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Aug 14, 2008 -> 01:16 PM) Byrd was claimed before Jose went down. There was no way the Sox were going to claim Byrd when Contreras was coming back. On top of it, Contreras has been the better pitcher this year anyway. I thought Byrd passed through waivers. Maybe I'm getting some bad information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just hope no one gets hurt. Too bad we couldn't just forfeit and move on. Catch an earlier flight to Oakland. Zero runs in two games, then two before even one out. The bullpen gets worn out, and nothing for Oakland. This could cost us two or thyree games. Or leave Broadway in for 6 or 7 no matter what.
