July 22, 200322 yr what was his opening speech when they first introduce him to the press, what has he accomplished? how many games did he blew? Koch has blown 4 saves, the same exact number that Gordon has, in 6 less games. Koch is 11/15, Gordon is 5/9, and Marte is 5/12. Tell me how Koch based on stats is such a waste, when his numbers are better than the other 2 guys?
July 22, 200322 yr Koch has blown 4 saves, the same exact number that Gordon has, in 6 less games. Koch is 11/15, Gordon is 5/9, and Marte is 5/12. Tell me how Koch based on stats is such a waste, when his numbers are better than the other 2 guys? who was suppose to be the closer? who was trade to be the closer.
July 22, 200322 yr who knows what tomorrow will bring? zen like response, wow you are really out of it tonite.
July 22, 200322 yr Well f***, you can't really be the closer when the manager doesnt call your number in the 9th. Theres only so much that Koch himself can do....he can fess up and tell someone that he is hurt if he is, or he can just go out there when called upon, do what he can, and hope to get back into good graces..this is 2002 Foulkegate all over again. We may never know if the guy can overcome his problems or not.

July 22, 200322 yr regarding the blown save numbers of Koch, Marte and Gordon, Koch was usually brought into games at the beginning of the ninth inning with no one on base. Quite a few of Gordon and Marte's blown saves came in the 7th or 8th after the starter put a couple of runners on. Those count as blown saves as well.

July 22, 200322 yr excellent counter I wasn't really trying to counter anyone. I just wanted to put some perspective on things. Number's can be misleading.
July 22, 200322 yr I wasn't really trying to counter anyone. I just wanted to put some perspective on things. Number's can be misleading. i meant nothing bad, i just meant that it was a good point. nothing bad by what i said.
July 22, 200322 yr i meant nothing bad, i just meant that it was a good point. nothing bad by what i said. Thanks, I took it as such. I didn't want anyone to think I was trying to pick on them.

Quite a few of Gordon and Marte's blown saves came in the 7th or 8th after the starter put a couple of runners on. Those count as blown saves as well. And all 4 of Gordons BS were in a set up role. Flash is 5-5 since he started closing. All of Kochs BS were in a closing role. That is a big difference.
July 22, 200322 yr And lets not forget the great job the reviled(by some) Rick White has done for us lately... He's done better then I thought....White has posted a 2.22 ERA since May 30
