Posted June 29, 200421 yr It certainly seems like it. I don't want this guy coming in during the 8th with a one run lead, although thats the kind of guy we traded for. He needs to get his pitching in order.
June 29, 200421 yr that's what billy koch does. that's why i took a picture of dejected billy koch. it's even up on my wall now!!
June 29, 200421 yr yeah, GO somewhere else BILLY! Because he's so much worse than what we already have right?
June 29, 200421 yr i have to check, but he may have even given up a few runs while warming up in the bullpen. I want to give him time to get his head together, but man has he looked bad...
June 29, 200421 yr yeah, GO somewhere else BILLY! Because he's so much worse than what we already have right? pretty much. he's not an upgrade, that's for sure.
June 29, 200421 yr yeah, GO somewhere else BILLY! Because he's so much worse than what we already have right? pretty much. he's not an upgrade, that's for sure. Never know! Â Look what people were saying about Chad Fox and Urbina before they become Marlins. :confused

Never know!  Look what people were saying about Chad Fox and Urbina before they become Marlins. :confused never know? c'mon! you watch the games, don't you!? of course i know! he's horrible!
June 29, 200421 yr do you k now how excited the fans get when he makes ONE out? they go NUTS when koch gets a pop fly or a strikeout because they fear they might never see it happen again!
June 29, 200421 yr He needs work, but considering all the parts of the game that aren't coming together for the Marlins, we can spare him a little patience.
June 29, 200421 yr c'mon! you watch the games, don't you!? of course i know! he's horrible! Yes I do watch them.... Do you notice he strikes out alot of batters gets them to pop up alot! Once he learns to control himself he'll do fine!  I think he has potential!! He was lights out a few years ago!!
June 29, 200421 yr do you k now how excited the fans get when he makes ONE out? they go NUTS when koch gets a pop fly or a strikeout because they fear they might never see it happen again! you are a moron.
June 29, 200421 yr The one inning that I can remember where Kock didn't allow a run was that extra innings game against the Rangers. He pitched a good 10th inning, but gave up to the two-run bomb to Blalock in the 11th... I really think if the offense could have scored a run in the bottom of the 10th to get him the win, his confidence would have been given a huge boost... Instead, they couldn't score and Koch lost the game.. I like him...Give him some time.
June 29, 200421 yr I believe it's been 3 out of 4 innings that he allowed a run. I remember Len and Tommy saying it. Â In the distance, White Sox fan laughter can be heard every time he steps on the mound...
June 29, 200421 yr c'mon! you watch the games, don't you!? of course i know! he's horrible! Yes I do watch them.... Do you notice he strikes out alot of batters gets them to pop up alot! Once he learns to control himself he'll do fine!  I think he has potential!! He was lights out a few years ago!! his potential period is over. that's what the young kids have when they first come into the league. he should be established by now, and he's not. he's terrible. yeah koch gets a strike out or a pop out after he allows 2 runs in 1/3 inning.
June 29, 200421 yr Koch lacks location. Unfortunetly for him and us his stuff doesn't have much movement so the ball is put on a tee every time he's forced to make a pitch the batter knows is coming. He needs to learn to stop throwing the ball and becoming a pitcher like Tommy Phelps, who does more with scouting batters and locating pitches than raw stuff. Luckily Pitching coach Wayne Rosenthal has experience in teaching just that (see Penny, Pavano, Fox and Benitez).
