So who's gonna be the mop up guy? Now we just need to get rid of Lopez and Timlin.

Well I think it will be Colon unless something drastic happens, such as Wakefield getting moved to the pen. I completely agree that Timlin needs to get the hell away from this team, he is just dead weight.

mopup guy? the way that this team has the ability to score runs we need a guy that can come in the game early and be able to pitch 3,4 inning without giving much runs so our offense can come back in the game , Tavarez CANT do that , like I've said before he's usleless to this team . the only thing tavarez is good for is to pitch if we have a 10 run lead thats it , and dosent happen often so we dont need him . Like yesterday when he replaced wake couldn't even give us a scoreless inning , same thing VS detroit he gave up 3 ER in 1 inning , we lost that game by 1 run . I'm sick of him

timlin is next

As a reminder, a DFA gives Boston ten days to trade Tavarez before he must be released (or, against odds, sent to the minors).

Would it be a bad thing to put Wakefield in the pen? I mean I know he's started for a while, and he could take it as a slap in the face, but he's done relief work before. I think playing wise it couldn't hurt to atleast try it out.

I assume he thinks Colon.

colon and/or schilling when either of them are ready to make the move up. I think its plausible at least. Right now, I don't see them taking either Lester or Buchholz out of the rotation when Colon or Schill are ready unless one of them shows they need to be sent down but as of now, neither one of those guys deserves a send down.

TheKilo · 05-12-2008, 06:55 PM

On a serious note, I'm psyched they're keeping Hansen up and giving him a legit run at the closer's job. He's earned it.

a700hitter · 05-12-2008, 08:28 PM

I think Bucholz will come out of the rotation for Colon.

BoSox21 · 05-12-2008, 08:33 PM

its gonna be interesting to see whether this loyalty to Timlin pays off in the end

Yes, bad. It's a horrific idea.
