Its a fine line. Pull the SP too soon and the pen gets burned out. Pull him too late and the team loses. In a close game like this I pull him sooner, not later. Valentine waited too long tonite.
-
And I will quote you the stats as they were when I made that statement. Stats are a bitch, eh?
-
It was hard to conceal my disgust for the Yankmees there........
-
-
After tonite we will be 5.5 games behind the Rays. Sure wish we had a pitching staff as good as the Orioles, who are shutting out the Yankees tonite so far.
-
Oh goody. Fat Albers is in the game to cement the loss.
-
Nope. Bard didn't deserve better. He sucks too. Back to the pen with Bard.
-
More runs are on the way, not that it matters.
-
And right now, we aren't as good a team as these guys. Our records tell us that.
-
Pretty embarassing, losing the series to these guys here at home.
-
Bard deserved better this game. Ross's s***** defense and Byrd not being able to bunt are going to cost him a L here.
-
Game over. Nice defense by Ross.
-
Even the A's announcers agree with that. One more run and the Red Sox lose. We aren't getting three runs tonite.
-
We aren't going to get many opportunities like that.
-
Some people here thought we would have no problems with the A's pitching. Well, for one game, we didn't.

We are snoozing through this game. Bard better shut this popgun offense down or we will lose the series to the A's....and thats embarassing.
-
Gonzo's act is getting old too. 0 for 8 in this series. Pathetic.
-
It about time Gonzo did something for the team.
-
Bard has to learn to trust his stuff out there. He still seems tentative and nibbles too much. He needs to pound the strike zone, especially early in the count.
-
Sure would be nice to play with the lead tonite.
-
Nicely done Bard.

"You are what your record says you are" Wise words. Yes, right now Yadier Molina is a better player than all of those guys. I expect that will change. I also expect that the Orioles pitching will deteriorate to reach its usual abyssmal level. Bellhorn was noting that the Orioles and Rays have each won five games in which they scored fewer than four runs and we have won just once. I commented on what I think is the reason behind our failure to win those types of games: crappy pitching. Thats usually the reason for that kind of trend, wouldn't you agree?

Middlebrooks deserves a shot right now. He has been on a very hot streak at Pawtucket and his numbers are bound to come back to earth in the majors. I hope people have realistic expectations for this guy because he is unlikely to keep up his current pace. If he can just be better than Youkilis was and not look so very silly at the plate half the time I will be satisfied. Any more than that is gravy.
