Anyway, I'm getting anxious to see what Theo is going to do. I know there's time left and Theo will pull something out of his ass but damn, this suspense is almost as bad as Game 4 of the ALCS.  |
Last night's game really bugged me. The Sox are playing the second place Orioles (never thought I'd type that) and they sit Damon, Rent, Manny, and Tek. I realize Tito needs to give everyone a day off here and there but c'mon, we're fighting for the division. Let them have a night off against KC or Tampa, not the fucking Orioles!
Regarding Curt, here is a perfect example of why he should not be coming out of the 'pen:
2004 Season Pitch-Count Stats (ERA, WHIP, Opp. Avg)
Pitch 1-15:
7.07-1.21-.287
Pitch 16-30:
3.78-0.87-.186
Pitch 31-45:
1.59-0.68-.151
Pitch 46-60:
0.86-0.99-.224
Pitch 61-75:
2.19-0.68-.188
Pitch 76-90:
4.91-1.47-.306
Pitch 91-105:
3.38-1.92-.355
Pitch 106-20:
3.09-1.11-.250
Pitch 121-35:
0.00-3.00-.333
Curt struggles to get going in a game even when he is healthy, never mind trying to comeback from a major injury. He needs to pitch in the starter's role or, if push comes to shove, in long relief.
