BF_in_Indiana Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 HE PITCHED 2 INNINGS ANYWAY. Isringhausen isn't Mariano Rivera. Nowhere near a valid comparison. 78373[/snapback] I'm not trying to compare Izzy to Rivera. I totally agree that Mariano is a better closer by a LONG WAY. I still hate using closers for two innings. Tonight both St. Louis and Houston used theirs for 3. Could be an issue tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Torre hasn't managed well throughout this series I occasionally give 'ol Joe the wrinkled eyebrow for ingame decisions but I don't say antyhing because in the end it usually works out. But I agree that in this series in particular he has made some really questionable decisions. I'm hoping that he can find a way to keep his entire lineup from swinging for the fences for the next 8 innings but after Games 5-6 I'm not holding my breath. I'm also hoping he doesn't leave Brown in too long but they may have already happened.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got Vasquez throwing up in the bullpen (a la Folkers). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rico Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Some players just can't wear the pinstripes.... like Kenny Rogers, now Kevin Brown. Time for Vasquez to prove he belongs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeyemike Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 My opinion on these two teams is well known. However, for purposes of choosing one or the other, I would like to see the Red Sox win, just so people in New England will stop yapping about it.

Campy Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Ball Game, congrats Sox fans. 78394[/snapback] While the salaries and pouting pansy players have turned me off to MLB ('cept playoffs and the World Series), the beauty of the game is that there's no clock. While the BoSox are obviously in the driver's seat, it ain't over til the third out in the bottom of the ninth... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunTheBall Posted October 21, 2004 Share Posted October 21, 2004 Could someone explain why you would start Brown, who hasn't done jack all year and was horrible earlier in the series? Did Torre not have anyone else available? I don't follow baseball much but when I heard he was starting game 7 I was a little taken aback.
