J. C. Romero

They're, they're role players, but they're not guys that can pitch in the seventh, eighth, and ninth when you're trying to win a championship.

Um, you know, you start matching those guys up to, like, a Madsen and a J.C. Romero and that sort of...

Those guys were passing the baton off to Brad Lidge, um, and so forth.

The same thing, you know, when they had Papelbon or whatever.

Got it.

Beyond that, '08, Matson, Durbin, Scott Eyre, J.C. Romero, and I think I'm missing, like, one more.

If you have that kind of bullpen, last night's starting pitcher would've been Zack Wheeler.

He would've been asked to go as long as he can, maybe it's five, maybe it's six.

If Dombrowski had given this team what Gillick gave the team in '08, Lidge? Okay, Lidge, Duron, got it, cool, comparable, got it.

Ryan Madson.

J.C. Romero.

Scott.

Scott Eyre, Durbin.

Uh-huh.

They were, they were awesome.

You know, I think J.C. Romero pitched, like, almost every day in September that year.

Well, '07 more so, but-

They just needed that back-end roster talent to solidify...

They needed a JC Romero.

Yeah, they needed guys like that.

A Chad Durbin.

I am hearing the Game of Thrones music, and I am shaking and quaking.

The bridge to Duran, sorry, the road to El Dorano would be so strong with 2022 J.C. Romero ready to go.

Oh, wow.

Oh, I would be so here for Sir Anthony.

I saw a

lot of the clips.

Yeah, a lot of it was Lidge giving the credit to J.C. Romero, to Ryan Mattson, to that setup that he had to get him a clear ninth.

and not having to worry about, you know.

Then Sensatello came in, went two-thirds.

J.C. Romero came in after him.

One and two-thirds, gave up nothing.

Chatty Patty came in after Romero.

The Qualls too or no? Was that the year before? No, no, he wasn't there.

JC Romero and – So

would you just say we were just better or everything has to fall in place that year?

I think what I'm seeing, I'm not inside the clubhouse, but what I saw in Philadelphia and witnessed inside that clubhouse on a daily basis of how close we were and how close-knit, I see that right now with the Brewers because they're unselfish.
