I think what we have here is a case of poor managerial skills. Sorry Terry, but you just CAN'T go through that many pitchers. You have Timlin - make him go a FULL innings. Have Malaska go 2, have Embree go 2. How about Williamson, a former starter? Any reason he can't do long relief? Instead, the Sox are now on their 7th pitcher, Arroyo, who is scheduled to start this weekend. He gave up a HR to the 1st batter he faced.
If Ortiz, Manny, and Millar can keep it alive...I'm still sticking to what I said. You're wasting talent, Terry. Put Castillo against the Orioles, give him some time to get into the season. It's going to be very difficult pitching him against the Yankees for his 1st major league appearance since '02.
Good luck for the rest of the night Boston, see y'all tomorrow.
