Timlin would be a perfect example of this.

My problem? I hate seeing the Sox lose game after game because of Timlin
(and the other asswipes in the bullpen). That's my problem. Jealous? Of
what? Don't even know what you're talking about there.

What I don't get is that while others are dropping like flies with
"injuries" and seem incapable of playing with a bad headache, Timlin goes
out there every time his manager gives him the ball, and you find it
objectionable...that you would prefer every player simply quit altogether
when the going gets tough. I'd certainly rather he had my back in a fight
than some cheap shot artist like you.

You're attempting to twist the conversation into something along the lines
of him being an "iron man"? Where did I say anything about injuries, or
Timlin's willingness to pitch? .....................
..........That's right, I didn't. Where do you come up with your
assumption that I would "prefer every player simply quit...." ??? Jeez,
at least try to stay focused long enough to type a reply, will ya?

Now, pay attention here...... I never questioned Timlin's "toughness". I
just am willing to acknowledge that he can't pitch worth a damn, and has
cost us too many games already this year. The fact that you are not
willing to see that fact doesn't make it less true.

OK..who do you want to pitch then genus? Have you been paying attention at all. Here is a suggestion. Do just a little light research and give me a more effective pitcher on this staff...other than J. Papelbon. It should take you less than 5 minutes to arrive at your answer.

Who is unwilling to face facts?

BTW...it's not his call who pitches either.
