Boby Jenks' Days as a Closer Behind him?!

Despite Joe West's and Bobby Jenks' best/worst efforts, the White Sox hold on to a 5-4 win over the Tribe.

I thought I would be posting about Joe West but Bobby has taken away some of that thunder.

Jenks' enters the 9th with a 5-1 lead.

And this is what follows:

double, walk, single, walk (run in 5-2), base hit (2 run in, 5-4); STILL NO OUTS, sacrifice bunt (1 out), intentional walk, strike-out (2 outs), flyout!!

Badger and I debated whether or not the Sox should have gotten rid of Jenks during the offseason. I said yes, while you could have still gotten something for him. Sadly, it looks like I was correct. Sox have other options at closer- Thornton, JJ Putz and even the rookie Santos (Bobby Jenks was not the Opening Day roster in 2005, so why not try Santos!?).

Yikes!!!

Back to Joe West. He has now tossed Ozzie three times. Watch the replay of him tossing Buerhle. Joe West should not be allowed to ump any Yankees, Red Sox, or White Sox games.
