  1. No more political posts please
  2. It'd be interesting to see some stats for innings where the pitcher has been sitting in the dugout for say 25 minutes or more. We saw the same thing happen to Wright not long ago.
  3. Sox are 28-11 in Holt's starts this year.
  4. The idea that Minnesota would accept only Buch in return is humorous.
  5. Also worth noting: in his last 3 appearances before getting injured, Koji was nearly perfect, 3 innings, 10 batters faced.
  6. Wouldn't Kimbrel and Tazawa be in a virtual dead heat with Koji if they didn't go on the DL? Plus Barnes leads the bullpen in innings.
  7. Those who are claiming overuse, tell us what your 'Koji Rules' would have been this year, starting with targets for # of appearances and innings.
  8. My guess is they trade Chapman or Miller and that's it unless they go on a skid.
  9. Koji was probably overused in April and May with a total of 21 IP. But in June and July he only had a total of 15 IP. That's very moderate usage. I'm not sure how you're supposed to plan around a reliever that you can only use sparingly with the number of innings that have to be covered. It's much easier said than done when you're trying to win games. IMHO.
  10. Pomeranz faced 7 hitters in the 4th and retired none of them...that's going to get anyone hooked.
  11. Farrell is doing fine managing the bullpen this year, with a lot of issues to deal with.
  12. A lot of unpredictable stuff happens in baseball. Nobody foresaw Wright pitching like this either. There are examples all over the place of guys suddenly finding something that makes them perform much better. It seems to be the nature of the game.
  13. Right, nobody knows s*** - we're all just speculating. But I trust the ballclub to have a better read on it than us armchair wizards.
  14. And he still gets injured, just a day later.
  15. Cubs win 6-2. f*** the Mets.
  16. Please explain how you can attribute this injury to overwork when he had thrown 21 pitches in 9 days and looked great when he did pitch.
  17. It wasn't about needing work. It was about winning the game.
  18. It's very, very common to use the closer in a 4 run game. Tito did it with Papelbon all the time. He obviously felt it was the way to go.
  19. That's exactly what's been happening. Ross and Barnes have been pitching high leverage innings recently.
  20. He was overworked in 2013, admittedly, but there was a World Series on the line, so pretty hard to knock it.
  21. Maybe the real issue was re-signing him for 2 years and 18 million.
  22. 4 runs is hardly a safe lead at Fenway.
  23. His 2014 season was excellent by human standards. 2013 was superhuman.
