fathom Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Jacobs might be Danks last batter of the game. It's so obvious with Danks that he's flying off the mound to his right way, way too much. He looks like Mitch Williams right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joejoesox Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 it'd be nice to just f***ing get out of an inning when there's 2 outs and runners on base, but it looks impossible with Danks on the mound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reddy Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 QUOTE (fathom @ May 31, 2009 -> 02:25 PM) I thought since his performance vs Boston at home last year (where he had a no-no thru 6, I believe) that Danks could become Johan-lite for the Sox. He just needs to keep his mechanics in check, and he proved last year he can do it. Put it this way: if Danks isn't an above average pitcher for the Sox over the next 3-4 years, then this team will not compete for the AL crown. He should be a 15-17 game winner every year. again, agreed on all fronts. i still think he's going to be our ace in a couple years, barring another acquisition.

Paint it Black Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 QUOTE (fathom @ May 31, 2009 -> 02:26 PM) No it won't...Dodgers will still give him away for nothing if someone takes on his salary.

G&T Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 QUOTE (fathom @ May 31, 2009 -> 03:20 PM) I will then reply that I honestly never saw that post, and couldn't disagree more with it. As I had said earlier, Cooper has his work cut out for him to get his mechanics back in order. Â Meh, that's my opinion on it. I hope it's mechanical and that it's fixed, but I haven't heard anything like that said. I just think it's carry over from last year. I don't know that something like that is fixed.

joejoesox Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 danks might face one more batter, maybe 2 if he can retire them in order, i'd personally let Carrasco come in for the next inning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Danks hasn't thrown that many pitches. If he can survive 5, let him. Just give him a real short leash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Got to make Greinke throw at least 40 pitches over the next 3 innings. Can't let him get into the 8th inning today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You trade for guys what you think they will do in the future, not what they did past. There is no way he does this all season. Low OBP thus doesn't get on enough to use his speed enough.

joejoesox Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 nice at bat pods, the key is to make greinke get you to 2-2 or 3-2 counts, becuase he RARELY throws a strike on 0-2 or 1-2! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
