We've got a hell of a team guys. This could be a special season finish.
Just heard the post game with Cohen and he said he believes E Mitchell has a bright future in front of him. Sounds to me like this was his' last chance for us.
Probably so. What I hate about it is we never gave him shot as a reliever. Not saying it would've worked, but it couldve been his niche.Quote:

Would you bring that guy in w two runners on? Hell no. two batters later he's walked one in. So as a reliever you can bring him in to start an inning. That's not different than starting a game. No one on. No one out. Nasty stuff but he can't hit a bull in the ass w a quilt. He's had plenty of opportunities to prove himself in three years, it's a shame it didn't work out.Quote:
