Joba out again for the 8th.

Please Joe..take him out.
Joba missing high. He's tired.

He walked a .107 hitter twice.

You could see Joba's mechanics were off to that batter.

...and now we can bring in Aceves.
b_joseph
07-24-09, 08:25 PM
And this is why I wanted him out of the game. 7 innings was enough...tell him good job and ice your arm.
Joba shouldn't be pitching in the eighth inning.:(

i'd have taken him out, but i understand why they left him in.

I was a proponent of him coming out in the 8th.

100 pitches. Nice performance. He lost the plate after a long half inning in the 7th.

Has Posada cleanly blocked a ball in the dirt yet this year?

That was an excellent job by Coke.
Nice job by Coke there ... and all in all, a great job by Joba! :D
Come on, offense, score some more and give Mo another night off!
Alex's "double" was the Land Rover Drive of the Game! :lol:
First pitch ... Mo sit down! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Mo wants a save so he tells Bruney to warm up :lol:

Why Bruney over Melancon or Robertson?
NelsonMuntz
07-24-09, 08:39 PM
Oh come on Joe ... give Melancon a freaking inning already.
JohnnyEllis
07-24-09, 08:39 PM
A Bruney-proof lead?
We just might see Mo in this game after all. Bruney does not inspire confidence right now but they've got to get him straightened out.
YankeeSass
07-24-09, 08:40 PM
Uh oh. Bruney warming.
He's got to do better than the other night, right? No need for Mo to get up again.
Why Bruney over Melancon or Robertson?
Girardi must think getting Bruney back on track is more important.
The Dream
07-24-09, 08:40 PM
Why is it Bruney and not Melancon?
Shanghai Bob
07-24-09, 08:40 PM
Have Robertson and Melancon been kidnapped by Mexican drug lords?
Why is Bruney up???

Looks like Bodymore MurderLand not making much noise over in Fenway. 2.5 up after tonight.

Why Bruney over Melancon or Robertson?
I'd like to get Bruney straightened out and have him become a useful pitcher out of the bullpen again. It seems like a good time to use him to me.

I think Joe feels getting him straightened out is important. While Melancon and Robertson to him are nothing more then extras to only be used in blowout situations. Thats my guess.

Bruney was the 8th inning until he got hurt. I understand people wanting to get Robertson and Melancon work but I have no problems with Girardi trying to fix Bruney.

They should probably send one of Melancon or Robertson down and bring back Alby, who can give them more length.

Man, he was out.
Remember, he doesn't have to tag you. The ball just has to beat you.

Nice call by the ump. He missed the tag low and didnt get him up high until Swish's hand was on the bag.
NelsonMuntz
07-24-09, 08:51 PM
Tough to tell from that angle but I'm surprised he called him safe simply because the ball beat him to the base by such a large margin.
YankeeSass
07-24-09, 08:51 PM
2 more runs and I will feel that the lead is Bruney-proofed.

Sorry Muggs, the A's are screwing up the pre-10PM finish
YankeeSass
07-24-09, 08:54 PM
Heh, I got my two runs. Bruney can come in to close now.
I love the way everything is going right for us lately. :D

He's been like Wetteland 1996 this year. Always gets himself into jams....but almost always manages to get out of them.
The Orioles once upon a time had a closer (Don Stanhouse) who Earl Weaver referred to as "full pack" because he would go through a pack of cigarettes watching get out of the jams he created for himself.

I'm sure he did, but what is more important? Righting Bruney or getting a middle reliever an inning?
