Heads must roll
The sox bull pen is woeful, Foulke, Embree,Mantei, they suck.
I would rather see Clay Meredith get another shot?

Seems as if every game they have lost for the past month with the exception of the 2 shut out losses have been blown save opportunities!  |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Unfortunately its what we have and if the Sox are going to make a run for it they need to get the bullpen "fixed' and fixed fast. One player isn't going to fix it. the Big Problem is Foulke, he is coughing up gopher balls at a near record pace.
and not to take Foulke off the hook but the home plate umpire was TERRIBLE last night. No consistency in his strike zone. Foulke should have been out of that inning before the Grand Slam.

Yeah....Foulke was a one year wonder. I never understood why he was so successful last year, because he NEVER looked like he had anything special. Flat fastball and not a very good breaking pitch.

The reason Foulke was good last year was because nothing was ever over the middle of the plate. He would pick those corners so precisely....combined w/ that little stutter before he threw that used to keep hitters off balance
This year it seems every 4th-5th pitch he throws is right down the center and he's missing the corners that he was hitting last year.
