    I disagree. The 9th inning can have special significance, and not just for fans, depending on the closeness of the game. The difference between the 9th inning of a 1-run game, and the 6th inning of a 1-run game, is measured by the difference in win probability and 'leverage'. Statistically, a team has significantly less chance of winning a game they trail by one run in the 9th vs. a game they trail by one run in the 6th. So statistically the 9th is indeed special. The real question, presumably, is how this affects the pitcher who has to pitch the 9th vs. the pitcher who has to pitch the 6th. And the only people can answer this are the people who actually do it.

    Of course. But my post was directed to sk7326, who was saying that he thought Rodney would stay as closer because he couldn't set up. I couldn't understand his point.

    Koji's last 19 appearances: 21.2 innings 0 runs 6 hits 1 walk 27 K's Don't even know the right word to describe those numbers.

    Great job by Ellsbury cashing that run with his speed.

    In 2011 Lackey got 6.09 runs per game support, enabling him to post a 12-12 record with a 6.41 ERA. The lucky s*** evens out in this wacky game.
  6. Bellhorn04
    It's his year to get the s*** support.

    Humanity needs cooperation and it needs competition. We're watching baseball because we want our team to f***ing WIN.

    It's almost September. Maybe they won't come down till next year.
  9. Bellhorn04
    Sorry but I can't quite follow the logic. Seems to me if he's not reliable enough to set up he's not reliable enough to close either. I mean setup guys are often given clean innings to work with too.

    You'll have to elaborate. You're saying that if Maddon puts him in in the 7th inning, he'll just stand there in a catatonic state?

    Also check out the Boston Globe politics forum. If you want some wild and woolly action, that's the place. It's the Combat Zone of online forums.
  12. Bellhorn04
    I agree.
  13. Bellhorn04
    No? Look, if we picked up a guy and he had 11 HR and 33 RBI in 30 games, I'm pretty sure we wouldn't be s***ing on him.

    Yeah the Angels could give the Rays a hard time. The Halos have had a terrible season, obviously, and they're out of it, but they still have talented players and now they have nothing to lose. Just the kind of team that can be a real pain in the ass.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Last year it was cool. This year it just looks stupid. Funny how that works.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Rodney is hurting the Rays big-time this year. Last night's blown save was his 8th of the year. And 7 of those have ended up as Rays losses. Last year Rodney only had 2 blown saves, both ending up as losses. So you could argue that the Rays have been 5 games worse because of their problems at closer. That'd put them 2.5 ahead instead of 2.5 behind. It'll be interesting to see if Maddon makes a move there.

    We call it September over here, Ben.

    Gonzalez's previous appearance was also in relief. A little strange. He's either not 100% or he's in Showalter's doghouse or something.
  19. Bellhorn04
    Britton had 2 bad outings against the Yanks and hasn't pitched since Aug. 18. He needed some work.
  20. Bellhorn04
    That, my friend, is very very sick.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Seriously Gardenhire must have nightmares about being abused by guys in pinstripes.
  22. Bellhorn04
    It's amazing that a guy with the name Taylor Teagarden would become a major league catcher.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Pedroia's had 14 hits in the last 8 games though.
  24. Bellhorn04
    7 ribbies for Victorino. What a night for him.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Let's go you s***** Angels!
