They Are Trying to Break Our Hearts
This is the season of angst. The whole "why can't we get guys like that" effect is in full play, what with Anibal Sanchez's no-hitter... losing the 10-9 game to the Royals in the fashion the Sox did pretty much summed it up: pulling ahead with hope, before the bullpen brought it all back down. And then now... 6 runs in the top of the 12th? Eric Hinske hits for Manny Ramirez? They are trying to break out hearts, I think.
At some point in the offseason, the wunderkind Theo and his crew seriously have to look at pitcher evaluation strategies, both for starters and especially for the bullpen.
