Why waste a PH?

What does this mean? It's the 7th inning. Do they get extra runs at the end of the game for having "saved" people on the bench?

I forward the motion that "RamRam" gets nipped in the bud right now.

 

Sorry, it's what Royals fans called him.

No, but anyone you bring in with the bases empty can't be used with a RISP.

Whats more in the Sox's favor? Pinch hitting for Tek in the 7th inning leading off, down by 3 runs... or 2 outs in the 9th against the closer, down by 3 runs?

 

EDIT: Jacoby goes down swinging

Neither are exactly high-probability situations, but I'll take Tek's defense behind the plate as long into the game as we dare.

We have to get people on base for that to happen.

 

Kinda my point. I'd rather not take defenders out of the lineup unless I know I have a chance to change the game doing it.

This presupposes that situation occurs. It's like saving your closer for when you get the lead on the road and throwing out Mike Timlin to hold them down in the bottom of the 9th.

Dice-K is becoming painful to watch. Remy had it right, not one of his 8 pitches looked sharp.

 

 

Garza with a very nice outing.
