letsgoarow Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Finally!! If he is healthy this is great news! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSox05 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 If he is healthy and pitches well this could be huge. Like really huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrockinMT Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 If he can do the job it would obviously make our bullpen stronger for this stretch run. It should help Dotel especially and if MacDougal can help it would be a real plus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 We'll see him eased into things but if the Sox are going to go anywhere in the playoffs, they will need to have Linebrink healthy (and possibly Mac productive). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 They have already said that his first couple/few pitching appearences will be in blowouts or garbage time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCSox Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Nice! From what Ozzie was saying earlier, it sounded like he wouldn't be available until October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 It's going to be interesting to see him pitch, as it sounds like his fastball is in the mid 80s right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did you see that? In the articles I read (Trib and SunTimes), it seemed that he was struggling with command, but I didn't see any mention of speed.

They said his splitter was as good as it's been all season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
