Honestly, it doesn't hurt as much as I thought it would.

I think I’m growing cynical. Sad.

It hurts because it's Morrow.

I expect this sort of thing from any of our other relievers.

Ok I can think rationally now.

THANKS FOR RUINING MY DAY AND MY NEXT DAY YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT. I’M GONNA WAKE UP FEELING LIKE SHIT IN THE MORNING ALL FOR NOTHING.

I WANT TO BECOME RICH ENOUGH TO BUY A MEMORY WIPE FOR MYSELF AND RESURRECT AS A RED SOX FAN.

SERIOUSLY I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY DID THIS TO US – AGAIN – AFTER WHAT HAPPENED LAST YEAR IN GAME 2.

I WISH THERE WAS SOMETHING TO DO TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER OTHER THAN CUTTING MY FUCKING WRISTS.

Remember that Aumont is now on the fast track.

That means he’ll be here next month, apparently. So, Chad’s screwed either way.

Heh. Indeed.

Strengths and Weaknesses

If you’re wondering why Chris Jakubauskas and Shawn Kelley made the roster, perhaps we need look no further than the walk rates for the rest of the relievers – Morrow, Aardsma, Batista, Lowe, and Corcoran all struggle to throw strikes consistently, and that’s essentially the high leverage portion of the bullpen. If a starter gets in trouble and needs to be bailed out of a bases loaded situation, Wakamatsu’s options for relief range from Guy With Bad Command to Guy With Horrible Command. You’re going to see several late inning bases loaded walks this year. Given this group of relievers, it’s inevitable.

Fuck.

Why didn’t you send Waka that before he opened the gas can?

by JLProck on Apr 7, 2009 8:19 PM PDT up reply actions  

Because Waka has no non-gas can options in the bullpen?

Basically, the M’s bullpen in composite = JJ circa 2004. OK, but there will be some days where they will make you take the gas pipe, because they won’t be able to throw strikes and they’ll lose games because of it.

I wasn't expecting this team to be any good.

So .500 is OK with me. And better they find out right away if Morrow is a bust. Gutierrez looks good meanwhile, Endy Chavez, Griffey, Beltre…
