Around SBN: The Ten Worst Swings Of The 2011 Season

Tony Sipp coming up, ZachJack going down

Evidently, our lack of a middle reliever who can get lefties out officially became glaring tonight.

Good for Sipp. It’s been a long and winding road to the majors for him.

Jackson would get stretched back out to start in Columbus, no?

by fleerdon on Apr 21, 2009 11:23 PM EDT reply actions  

Maybe they should shorten him up.

Hopefully this is like 2007 where every guy we bring up is golden.

Good deal. Shows we’re not gonna stand pat without at least exploring other in-house options.

I like it.

And Sipp, we don’t need you to be lights out. League average would be a good start.

It’s the right move. Wedge can’t mistakenly bring in Jackson to face lefties anymore, and Sipp could easily end up the most effective non-Wood reliever in the pen.

Pathetically, I’ve been waiting for this day since 2005, in spite of the injuries.
