![]() Sox bullpen is scary good right now, it';s basically a six inning game with Delcarmen, Okajima, Gagne and Papelbon anchoring the pen.

![]() the only good thing about the Red Sox is that they're not the Yankees. That's my REd Sox compliment for the day.

Cleveland, the Indians sucked for so long, no one even went to the old stadium, were basically an ace away from a World Series title from 1995-2000, but management wouldn't go out and get one. The Browns left town, then reincarnated as the worst run professional sports team ever. Tim Couch. Butch Davis. Art Modell. Then got buzzards luck and ran into the Spurs in the NBA Finals this year. Pretty shi*ty. PS How nasty was the Indians lineup in say 1996/1997/1998? Thome Ramirez Fryman Justice Lofton Giles All in their prime, too, more or less...

![]() Gagne is a shell of his former self. Anyone who thinks otherwise must be a die hard Sox fan. HOoray for the city of Boston, whose Celts also took someone who is on the decline of a very nice career. (and I thought it was the city I live in that only did this kind of stuff

College Football, Baseball, and Horse Racing growing up for my family. So I guess if you throw in Clemson, we have 2 championships in sports. How you can combine years for multiple sports is beyond the math I am used too. However, go on with the self pity act...Seriously, every non-fairweather johnson knows what it feels like to be at the bottom... Last edited by ARyan : 08-01-2007 at 03:14 PM. |

When your starters only have to go 5, possibly 6 innings before you can give the ball to 3 or 4 of the best relievers this year, it is not a bad situation. Atlanta made the best moves this trading season, but Boston got a guy that helps the team, and makes a good bullpen even better. Also, who cares about Basketball? ![]() |

![]() If your starters only go 5 and 6 innings a game. I'd be worry about overuse of the bullpen.
Gagne is already known for his health problems his entire career.

Gagne Okajima Timlin Delcarmen Lopez I am not really worried about overuse. If Gagne pitched two nights in a row, then you can use Timlin to give a break, or Delcarmen. Gagne and Papelbon won't see more then an inning a game, and they don't have to, and won't pitch every game. Knowing Schilling only has to give 5 or 6 good innings a start is a comfort. Same for Wakefield. Trust me, they won't be taking out Beckett or Matsuzaka in the 5th or 6th if they are throwing great, but if there stuff is starting to get hit, why not give it over if you have the arms, and fresh arms. |
