  1. Cubs win 6-2. f*** the Mets.
  2. 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.
  3. It wasn't about needing work. It was about winning the game.
  4. 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.
  5. That's exactly what's been happening. Ross and Barnes have been pitching high leverage innings recently.
  6. He was overworked in 2013, admittedly, but there was a World Series on the line, so pretty hard to knock it.
  7. Maybe the real issue was re-signing him for 2 years and 18 million.
  8. 4 runs is hardly a safe lead at Fenway.
  9. His 2014 season was excellent by human standards. 2013 was superhuman.
  10. He was definitely a workhorse in 2013. 88 total innings including the postseason.
  11. Koji, Kimbrel, Tazawa and Barnes would all have about the same usage #s if Kimbrel and Tazawa weren't on the DL.
  12. It's not true. He was on pace for about 65 innings this year. He threw 74 in 2013 and 64 in 2014.
  13. If we trade for Santana what do we do with E-Rod? You're ready to move on from him altogether?
  14. Why not f*** the Mets?
  15. 5 games out on July 19 isn't much.
  16. I agree that ERod deserves more of a look after his good performance.
  17. Basically Koji would have gotten hurt the next time we used him no matter what. This injury had nothing to do with being overworked.
  18. I respect your opinion, and I've called for Farrell's head earlier this year myself. But in this case I can't fault him. If you have to treat your closer like a china doll he's not much use to you.
  19. As I posted in the game thread, Koji had only thrown 21 pitches in the previous 9 days.
  20. Not lately. July 9 - pitched. July 10-14 - off. July 15 - pitched (14 pitches) July 16 - pitched (7 pitches) July 17-18 - off. So from July 10 to July 18, 9 days, he threw 21 pitches.
  21. Yeah, it amazes me that anyone thinks there's a big difference between a 3 run lead and a 4 run lead just because of that silly stat.
  22. 'Non save games'? C'mon Lou, that's crap...a 4 run lead has been known to disappear in Fenway pretty quick.
  23. You are the Price Slasher.
  24. But Santana has been pitching decently lately and is not unreasonably priced. I can't see why they would trade him now except for a good prospect.
