July 7, 200521 yr That's another day that the bullpen steps up mightily. Tuesday, they picked up the slack from Josh going down early to hold the ship and at least give the team a chance to win. Last week on the 29th, the surrendered only one run in 8+ innings of work to allow the offense to come back. Tonight, the pen (combined with AJ) threw 28 perfect outs to close out the game between Mecir, House of Pain, Jones (being used in a non-save role!), and De Los Santos. Mota's on fire and the rest of the pen is following his lead.
July 7, 200521 yr Mota, Mecir and Jones.. the 3 guys I trust in the pen. VDLS continues to be a very pleasant surprise.
July 7, 200521 yr I'm glad Mota is back!!! He is pitching lights out now!! And how about De Los Santos!!!!
July 7, 200521 yr I'm so proudly confident of Jones, Mota, Mecir, and De Los Santos...I'm so happy to say that... and Nate Bump, the other day he came into the game and I realized something...I didnt start cursing at the screen...he's not lights out...but he's maturing and he's becoming more and more reliable with each outing...I'm proud of him...
July 7, 200521 yr Our bullpen pitched a perfect game. 843551[/snapback] Yup, they should get big props for that!!
July 7, 200521 yr Our bullpen pitched a perfect game. 843551[/snapback] Yep, it was pretty unbelivable to hear it (as opposed to seeing it) tonight. Now let's see some consistency out of them the rest of the season!
July 7, 200521 yr 28 straight outs by the pen, that is off the charts. great contrast to burnett's outing with flashy numbers but so many walks and runs.
July 7, 200521 yr I give props to the pen ... but I must say that the brew crew were mediocre with their bats to say the least. unfortunatly our offense was even worse, since we couldn't score a freaking run we won ... im happy
