I'm still confused as to why the sox are using a 6-man rot in the 1st place.

6 man rotation doesnt put you in 1st or last. each guy responds different to an extra day off.

Left handed reliever Hector Santiago was called up.

Very disappointing. Hopefully Danks can pick up where he left off. He was really throwing the ball well in his past few outings. We can't catch a break...well, aside from Humber's emergence.

still confused. The Sox have too much talent to be in last....they'll finish near the top...6 man rot's just don't make sense to me.

Me either. Ahh... thats Ozzie, short answer. Humbers been too good to go to the bullpen, Floyds' a starter, so is Danks, so is Janckson and Buerhle aint goin nowhere. Ozzie doesnt know who to bench, so 6 man rotation.We should trade(ejax, floyd, imo) for some bullpen help, a long reliever.

they are stupid. the only explanation I have heard is the career innings that MB has had and how he slows down at the end of the year. I think a lot of pitchers go through what is called "dead arm" and it isnt like MB is this power pitcher, he is all finesse. Another reason may be the trust factor with Peavy and his injuries.
i wouldnt mind ejax traded or gavin floyd to the pen for long relief. gavin needs to get his shit together.
But as of right now, we arent going to win with pierre in everyday, and ozzie sucking at in game managing.
To think we have blown 2 plus run leads in the 9th multiple times, pierre dropping the ball, dunn having a mental breakdown, and being the worst team in baseball may 3, i am shocked that the team is 4.5 back and only 3 games under .500
on a side note i hate bad baseball as im sure you do to. it sucks, makes the summer long.

Absolutely do not trade Floyd. Floyd is one of the 3 starters under contract going into next season.

Why not bring up Dayan Viciedo? It's nice to have arms in the bullpen but Juan Pierre has been a disaster.

You don't follow the Sox, do you?
Silly question
Not too much but just a little. I still think it makes more sense to bring in Viciedo. Pierre is bad.

Perhaps right now is not the right place to ask, but when did having 12 pitchers become the standard? It seems like every team now feels the need to carry 7 relievers when not that long ago 6 was considered fine.

Ozzie refuses to bench Pierre for Viciedo.
