  1. this serious is pure chaos
  2. knew it when it was webb coming in
  3. just one time please joc
  4. thank goodness after a horrible AB
  5. please get one semien
  6. 4 games back of division, Angels win today would tie us for the wild card Also 9-1 in the last 10
  7. should've kept him down lmao
  8. Alright, going into our game today 58 games to play I believe: - 2 games from top wild card with the Yankees in apparent free fall - 6 games back of division which feels unlikely, but we do play the astros 6 times. - 2nd in the month of July in runs/game Feels like a completely different team than a month aog when we were about 11 out of the division and maybe 6 from wild card?
  9. Looks like Haggerty is activated and Freeman down. Guess that implies Higashioka is available
  10. tough stretch since ASB (obviously small sample) for semien and adolis. them hitting changes it all for this team. lets go adolis
  11. Vuskovic too... 18 year old CB with an assist and goal in his first big league minutes. Vuskovic, Devine, Lankshear, Moore were all buzzing. Bergvall was awful, but its all just a friendly. Danso solid to me as well. Sonny looked lost sadly
  12. Sure you can say its basic math but bullpen is the position where the most deadline transactions happen, obviously I want pen improvement. We're riding 3 guys heavy (4 if you include Latz, but ideally he can be a long man). It's not just a one game issue either, abilities to keep traffic off the bases late in games has been an issue all year in close games. I don't care about the ring 2 years ago in the context of the bullpen today, but if you want that, that's a bullpen that we added to at the deadline with Stratton and Champan, to a Will Smith and Brock Burke who were good pre-trade deadline, and Leclerc was a 1.2 WAR reliever with a sub-3.0 ERA (which probably only Latz has an ability to sniff this year). He legitimately had a great year and Sborz went from an over 5 ERA pitcher to sub-1 in the playoffs. I'd just love for us to have more options in the pen so we don't have to see Luke Jackson, Jacob Webb, and Boushley the day after we roll our A guys (Martin, Milner, Garcia). Maybe the answer is Sborz or Gray kicking Kumar/Leiter to be a one inning guy, I don't know. But its a thin pen as we go into probably needing to go 40-27
  13. What does the defense have to do with the bullpen? I don't think the "bullpen needs pieces" is controversial, unless we want to keep rolling out Luke Jackson and Jacob Webb? Lack a shutdown closer, been carried by the starters which is great, but I don't think the bullpen is particularly strong nor does it do well in high leverage situations. 25/41 in save opportunities. Sorry that is such an upsetting take
  14. 8 runs not enough.. bullpen needs pieces
  15. thought we lost corey for the year there
