im not a theo guy
i do like the fact that he spends their money and i do like the way hes brought in some real quality young arms
im of the mind that pitching depth wins baseball games
the worst team wins 60
the best loses 60,the difference is the stoppers ala clemens when he was here
petey schill etc,over there theyve had mussina,never the best,always steady
when you trot out 5 decent men in a row you cannot go into season crushing losing streaks
when you have questions or injuries is when you drop 8of 10 and the entire team gets into a funk
last year i feel the season was put in perspective when becks had toronto by the short hairs then lost a 4-5 run lead in the 8th
the next day lenny dinardo gets the ball against halliday
blam
instead of assuring yourself a win on the road and a good shot at taking the series you show up sunday trying to avoid a sweep with a destroyed bullpen
depth dont mean 10 all stars
it means you have the strenght to lose a wakefield or a beckett for a month without the season being lost
we may have that now if lester comes back strong
we may not if schill wake breakdown and matsusaka and becks are inconsistant
never ever ever enuff arms as far as im concerned and this maybe why i wake up screaming wily mo penas name at 430am once a week
the key to the yankees for a long time was that ********** ramiro mendoza
spot start for you and give you 6 solid
middle relief and will keep you in the game,set up guy,you name it he did it
we need a guy like that as wakefield cant be expected to do it anylonger
