Substitute Gamethread: Sox vs Astros

Man I wish we had some guys in the pen who could hold the deficit for a few innings. Could be 8 or 9-6 right now. Same deal as Friday. A 4-3 games turns into 8-3 in a blink of an eye.

DFA Nate Jones, he's hot garbage.

ADA getting much better going back on balls

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 10, 2012 -> 03:47 PM)
And really, it is pathetic. It makes game threads a joke.

The joke is Sox continue to march Stewart out and he continues to suck the more he pitches. He adds nothing to this team period!

GMAFB. Who is going to take the 3 roster spots on the 40 man that for some reason you need clear by releasing the guy?

 

I meant I've given up on criticizing people that suggest that. I'm on your side here

Haven't people mostly complained about him playing too deep?

It's so awesome seeing Rios' average near .300. This is exactly why I was so happy when we traded for him. He's finally figuring it out.

The reason he plays deep is supposedly because he doesn't go back well

We didn't trade for him. He was a waiver claim.

It's funny. Ohman's WHIP is

Right, thanks.

1/3 of his hits surrendered are home runs. He hasn't pitched that badly.

 

Brett Wallace inventing a new way to get a double there

Yeah, the WHIP definitely suggests he's doing alright. I feel most of his runs have come in situations where we were down by 3+ too, but I could be wrong on that.

.513 OPS against lefties, .917 against Righties

How many teams are 7-8 deep in the pen?? You guys want to much out of a LONG RELIEVER...He's not gonna be in there when the game matter so who cares if he's not tearing it up coming out of the pen....On the other hand with the emergence of JQ I wouldnt mind moving him into Phils spot and Phil to Zachs spot....But then all thats gonna do is have people hear making the same remarks about Phil....

I do think Stewart shoud be sent down though when Danks is ready to join the club again. However, that puts Quintana in the position of not throwing a whole lot which is most likely Stewarts problem now. He isn't real sharp. But, he gives up runs including homers and that ain't good when you only pitch an inning or two

How many ABs against each? Sounds like we're just using him out of place then. That's a pretty huge difference.

I have a hard time believing they'll take Q out right now.

49 PA's against lefties, 34 against righties coming in to today.

Because that's what I was saying...Stewart just gave up a 2-run homer and I said the lead could be 8 or 9-6 (which it would be if not for that homerun). I was completely giving Jones a pass for today because he's gonna have rocky outtings from time to time.

 

It's funny how people are so quick to jump on innocent posts...there are posters who are overly critical of the team, but there are also posters who just who just can't wait to call out others, which is just about as annoying.

Oh, so he is being used correctly. Oh well, if he keeps that up, his ERA will have to drop.

If they keep pushing him, I don't think it'll be all that long before he has a couple bad games and everyone turns on him and wants him DFA'd. He's almost literally gone straight from A ball to the bigs and had a couple decent outings.

Not for a week or so is my guess. Maybe he takes over for Humber?

I haven't had to jump on anyone for a few weeks...because the team was winning, so the "Sky is falling fire everything" posts aren't cool.
