April 24, 201411 yr Matt needs to be done as the closer. I can't take it.. I love the fight of this team!! Semien with the clutch game winning home run! Rienzo was solid as the 5th starter
April 24, 201411 yr Marcus Semien: "wait what happens when i hit a go-ahead homer and we don't then give up the lead. does that mean we like win or something"
April 24, 201411 yr Who the hell is this Semien guy? he's not too f***n bad Edited April 24, 201411 yr by Hawkfan
April 24, 201411 yr going for a winning road trip against two possible playoff teams tomorrow without Eaton or Sale. think good thoughts. 11-11, one game ahead of 2013 pace.
April 24, 201411 yr Ya Rienzo is nothing spectacular but he'll give us a chance to win games, perfect 5th starter. I hope Robin is proactive now and moves Matt out of the 9th and gives Webb his shot. Matt's been a successful middle reliever in his career, let him go back to it. But for whatever reason, he doesn't trust Webb and Matt is old so he earned the closer's spot or something. Semien and Abreu are the coolest.
April 24, 201411 yr Hawk is going to injure himself on one of these dramatic homers when he thinks he needs to reach down deep for more screaming volume
April 24, 201411 yr Semien doesn't hit Abreu-like blasts, but he has real good power to straight away LF.
April 24, 201411 yr Chuck Garfien says Beckham should come off disabled list this weekend and figures to get his job back because he deserves it. Frank Thomas laughed pretty good and said, "I don't know if he deserves it." Preach, Frank.
April 24, 201411 yr Solid outing from Rienzo, he did what a 5th starter is supposed to do. Good resiliency to bounce back from that rough 4th inning. Abreu is The Hulk. Semien is Clutch with a capital C. Leury made some plays today. Paulie did good. Webb for closer.
April 24, 201411 yr Webb is too good (relatively speaking) to waste closing. We need him in tighter situations
April 24, 201411 yr QUOTE (GreenSox @ Apr 23, 2014 -> 09:19 PM) Webb is too good (relatively speaking) to waste closing. We need him in tighter situations I don't disagree with this but Robin isn't using him there either.
April 24, 201411 yr IMO I thought Rienzo was the fifth all the way. But I didn't have an issue signing Paulino. Oh well Rienzo has done enough to earn another start.
April 24, 201411 yr QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 23, 2014 -> 09:24 PM) Beckham called up. Leesman sent down There's a thread on it
April 24, 201411 yr QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 23, 2014 -> 08:25 PM) There's a thread on it Posted it cuz I just heard it and was this thread. I was off the tv for a bit. I was late lol my bad
April 24, 201411 yr @ckamka: April 3, April 13, April 23... Semien's next homer is due May 3rd, I guess. Lol
