Skully Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Damn dude. You scared me.... The guy left for a few days, that's all.. I like Billy Koch. I really wish they would pitch him more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhishPhan Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 Billy has been big for us, I hope he comes back soon. 535508[/snapback] Yeah big as in filling that Almanza void. Koch is probably going to go "heal" his "big toe" with Ramon at "extended spring training". Heck make Ricky will be there too, and some women, and clubs, and bats, and whips and chains!......Those will at least make Ramon's job easier. :whistle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iowa Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 I don't know why you need to bash him... He is our 5th-6th option out of the pen. He's what you should expect to get out of someone so far down the chain... especially as a coverted closer to middle relief. ..I hope everything is alright with him and his family.

How many players did he walk in which he had to be taken out of the game for another reliever to get out of the inning with no harm? The only reason his ERA is so low is because Jack took him out after he walked or allowed numerous baserunners for another reliever to come in and get out of the jam. Good luck to Billy in whatever he's having to deal with right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Man Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 you people are dumb. well some of you. billy has an era of 3.51 he has given up a grand total of 3 earned runs since july 1. thats an ERA of somewhere around 1. you people are stupid. 535932[/snapback] but it when he gets on and walks people, the onl; reason he has only3 EARNED runs....? His name: Armondo Benitez. Billy WALKED the bases loaded, and had 1 out. Armondo came in, during a 3-1 count, and struck him out and then got the next guy to pop out. Billy is always beeing bailed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaq-Man Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 maybe he's secretly off getting surgery on his throwing arm. watch, he'll come back and mysteriously start throwing in the high 90s again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FishFanInPA Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 You all are probably happy about that...Since you all hate him anyways....Billy deserves a better chance and deserves to pitch more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
