Repeating what Max said, a 1 run lead at YS in the 9th is tough for anyone.
Houck is a young guy who has just started in the closer role. He's had some rough moments but ultimately got the final outs.
Have some patience.
1) Houck's first save was a 1-run lead, June 10 at Seattle.
2) Schreiber has moved up the trust ladder in a big hurry and will no doubt get some closing opportunities at some point.
3) Whitlock will be returning to the rotation, why would you think any differently?
I was just happy he had a game like that after being written off. I also see it as a tribute to Bloom and Cora the way they stick with guys and give them every chance.
Yeah right. Now you're gonna try to tell us that all complaints are created equal. You think you're smart. But "last I checked", to use one of your classic lines, smart people don't get banned for trolling.
Um, yeah, I complained when you called Boston a "2nd rate, backwater little town" for no reason. But now you're going to play innocent. It's all in your little troll playbook.
