[Ramp]

this could be for me
--------------------
delayed cuz of rain

CV Stud is in trouble

[FishFF]

Game on

[dgriot]

easy peasy

[Bobbob1313]

Even though I've seen him pitch, I thought Yovani Gallardo was whiter. Not sure why.

[dgriot]

Cogs willed that error.
--------------------
Hanley!
:fist
--------------------
Cantu willed that temporary blindness.

[Ralph]

volstads nono gone

[Bobbob1313]

volstads nono gone

I blame Jim Joyce for this.

[dgriot]

Volstud chasing away the rain demons.

[Ramp]

nice work Tank

2-2

[nny]

Tank is so bad against righties he can't even get right handed pitchers out :|

[Namaste]

Tank

[MiamiHomer]

blehh

[Ramp]

tank is not a roogy

[MiamiHomer]

Sosa is a ROOGY

[Party]

Team CC!

[Bobbob1313]

Sosa is a ROOGY

Well, he got one out. Should've pulled him quicker.

[Ralph]

jorge sosa is not good.

[MiamiHomer]

This sucks.

[nny]

why are we using our worst reliever in a tie game?

[dgriot]

Team Sos...oh no

[Ralph]

he throws fast.

[Namaste]

Broken bat home run.

lol.

[Valid]

Funny thing is, Sanches has only pitched once in the last week. So the reason we're not using him tonight is?

[Namaste]

Fredi waits until it gets to Full Batting Practice Code Red to yank Sosa

[MiamiHomer]

We like giving games away!

[Ramp]

nice work tonight, Tank and Sosa

[nny]

I really never understand fredi's "we're in a tie game, so I'm going to use my worst relievers first incase it goes into extras" mentality.

[mbitcronod12]

I hate our bullpen SOOOO MUCH!!!! We should make it a standing rule that unless our starters are hurt or falling down on the mound from exhaustion, that they should go 7 innings, period. I'd rather take my chances with them out there then our bullpen (except Hensley, Nunez and Sanches).

[TealMonster08]

When will Fredi learn that 2-inning relief is not our strong point?...Tim Wood in Houston, Sanches, Pinto, Sosa, these are 1-inning guys. If Hensley and Nunez arent available, or arent in the right situation to pitch, Fredi acts as if he doesnt have to piece together anything, when in fact, getting through 3-innings of a tie ballgame with our bullpen is like pulling a rabbit out of a hat out of your asshole.

Lets Get Some Runs!

[Bobbob1313]

What I like about our bullpen is the reactions they get from people.

Brian Sanches has been downright Pintonian this season, and yet people have absolute faith in him and nobody really mentions him as a problem.

Like, I think he's good and should be fine, but if he was Renyel Pinto and was pitching how he has this year, people would be booing him daily.

[Valid]

So you have more faith in Sosa than Sanches? I don't care how "Pintonian" Sanches has been this season. He's still a much, MUCH better option than Sosa.

[Bobbob1313]

So you have more faith in Sosa than Sanches?

Me?

Oh, god no.

Just saying, it's interesting to me.

[Namaste]

Then why mention it?

[Bobbob1313]

Then why mention it?

Because Brian Sanches was one of the people Mba mentioned that she has faith in, when there's really no reason to and I happened to be thinking about it while I was pissing.

[TealMonster08]

I hate all of them when they suck. And I like them when they dont. That is what a bullpen is all about.

[Bobbob1313]

Also, Sosa has a career .234/.299/.379 line against RHB. He might have some utility in a role going after righties.

Not saying I have a ton of faith in him, or defending his usage in that spot, but I don't think he's necessarily useless.

[Ramp]

good thing he was facing a lefty

I edited.

[Party]

I like how bob has no emotion.

[Ramp]

I always thought he was in a glass case of emotion

[Bobbob1313]

I have emotion.

I just don't get upset by the inning to inning or game to game shit. It's a long season, you'll hurt yourself getting pissed everytime our bullpen gives up runs.

And if I do get upset, I generally don't feel the need to post about how upset I am.

[nny]

most bad right handed relievers are ok against right handed batters.

most relievers are bad starters. most are bad starters because they don't have a pitch to get the opposite hand out.

there's a big difference between a "loogy" and a "roogy" because "roogys" are a dime a dozen (Unless you're talking about Chad Bradford territory, which obviously sosa is not)

[MiamiHomer]

Super 'stache coming in.

I don't necessarily thing Sosa is a roogy, but I think if you do your best to have him avoid LHB, he might be able to be servicable. You just have to have a quick hook with him if a lefty comes even close to him.

[nny]

So he's not a ROOGY, but he shouldn't face lefties?

[Bobbob1313]

He's not a shut down guy against righties, like a Bradford, who has super low OBP and SLG against. Sosa keeps RHB off the basepaths pretty well for his career, but he's got like a .170 ISO against, so he's not a shut down. That doesn't mean he can't be useful in spots.

Of cours, just because he can be useful, though, doesn't mean he should be used in a tie game, or that he even necessarily deserves a roster spot, given better options. But as long as he's on the roster, he can be useful in certain situations. This was probably not one of them.

I'm not saying Sosa's anything but a mediocre reliever. But if you do it right, he can maybe work.

[Swifty]

Prince Fielder hits balls hard.

[nny]

ROOGY/LOOGY doesn't have anything to do with being "shutdown", it has to do with inability to get the other hand out.

[CrimsonCane]

I like how bob has no emotion.

Actually, that would be my schtick. I'm 1/4 Vulcan.

[Bobbob1313]

Well, yeah, he has an inability to get LHP. And he's merely ok against RHP. He's an extremely borderline RP who can have some utility.

[Beef]

Chris Coghlan won the roogy of the year award

[Swifty]

Sometimes, I get so angry I spit loogys

[Beef]

Well loogy there

[Swifty]

I'm ambivalent towards Rich Waltz, but I swear to God I fucking hate hearing him say "Philadelphia"

Philodolfia.

[Beef]

It is the worst thing he does, without a doubt.

I was makin a doodie and I yelled to my Sals about how much I fucking despise that.

[LocoMarlinFan]

Sanches is throwing junk balls

[Swifty]

Throwing em all the way to Philadolfia

[Beef]

Philuhdullphiuh

[Namaste]

Rich Waltz does so many things that annoy me but the worst thing he does is talk.
