7/11 vs. Mark "The Natural" Teahen

[Dutchy]

Yeah.

 

You try pitching with an oblique injury.

 

Smoltz pitched coming off Tommy John, and that's when he gave up a lot of his runs.

[The_Destroyah]

ill use Jaws' favorite saying from the 1999 home run derby: Back, Back, Back, Back, Back, and GoooooOoOoooone!

[Dutchy]

KKKKKKK

[Dutchy]

Jed Lowrie went 3-5 today in Pawtucket with his 4th double in 11 rehab games.

[Dutchy]

Crap, that ball just scraped the wall. There goes the shutout.

[Spudboy]

I think Eck just admitted earlier that he snorted coke with Mr. October back in the 70's...

 

I've been reluctant to mention this up to this point, but a friend of mine was a "Financial Advisor" for Eck when he was with the Sox.

 

My friend said that Eck would show up in my friend's office for a meeting and crack an 8 ball open on the desk. Not really surprising. Nose candy was really big then (for those that could afford it).

 

Got to give him credit though. He overcame an addiction, became a dominant closer, and made it to the hall of fame.

[The_Destroyah]

whats the Pitch Count on Smoltz?

[Dutchy]

whats the Pitch Count on Smoltz?

 

97 pitches. Don't see much of a reason to put him back out there for the 6th up by 8 runs. But maybe they'll try to stretch him out a little more.

yeah that doesnt suprise me yayo was pretty big then, and at least he wasnt like D. Strawberry.

 

what is funny is that John Smoltz and Eck are the only 2 pitchers in baseball history to record a 20 win season and a 50 save season just thought that was kind of funny.

i doubt they stretch him but you never know.

Oooooo, that's a nice little bit of trivia there.

[Spudboy]

Jed Lowrie went 3-5 today in Pawtucket with his 4th double in 11 rehab games.

 

That's great. Now he is hitting over .100 at Pawtucket. Fianally.

 

Don't get me wrong, I believe he will make a very large contribution to the Sox this year.

You do know it was after recovery right?

Yeah, his 0-8 the last couple days was a little concerning.

[Dutchy]

You do know it was after recovery right?

 

It was after a year of recovery (usually takes 2 years to recovery from Tommy John) and he wasn't right that entire year. That's the reason he was originally moved to the bullpen. I realize Beckett was hurt last year, but Smoltz has over 200 postseason innings. I think it's safe to say that he's pitched hurt as well.

 

Not that it matters all that much, they're both on our team and if they're healthy they'll be starting for us in the postseason.

f*** yeah!

[Spudboy]

Yeah' date=' his 0-8 the last couple days was a little concerning.[/quote']

 

Not really when you consider what he has been through.

 

Assuming that his wrist continues to regain strength, timing will be the only issue. He's young, athletic, and smart.

 

He'll be fine.

[Spudboy]

f*** yeah!

 

Amen.

[Dojji]

Masterson still sucks.

 

that was an absolute lollipop

Yeah, he's recovering from surgery and he'd been bounced around to 3 or 4 different teams to try to avoid rain outs. I just want him to get hot, come in and immediately perform for us so he can put all the doubts to rest.

[Spudboy]

I will take this opportunity to give a shout out to Dojji. Teahan has looked pretty f***ing good against the Sox.

 

Just sayin'.

[Dojji]

So what the heck is it with Masterson? What's the deal? He's completely lost it.

[BoSox21]

how about not blowing a 9-run lead?

[Dutchy]

K, time to take out Masterson.

[Dipre]

I will take this opportunity to give a shout out to Dojji. Teahan has looked pretty f***ing good against the Sox.

Definitely Teahen has looked good against us.

 

He still sucks though

[Spudboy]

Pull Masterson NOW.

 

Bard time.

his performance in the post season also got hurt in 94 when he had to have bone fragments removed from his elbow, he posted a 6+ ERA that postseason

[Dojji]

If he walks Tony Pena, Jr. then so help me...

 

Delcarmen warming

[Spudboy]

Definitely Teahen has looked good against us.

 

He still sucks though

 

 

My old eyes can barely see that!

[Dipre]

 

My old eyes can barely see that!

 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

 

Nice catch, dood.
