Hoyer took the blame. "I did a poor job in the bullpen this year, full stop," he said. "The guys we acquired this winter didn't produce nearly as well as they did a year ago." Hoyer was referencing pitchers such as Hunter Harvey and Phil Maton. Both were signed to free agent deals last winter but spent most of the season on the injured list. Harvey never threw a pitch for the Cubs while eating up $6 million in salary. Maton appeared in 31 games, compiling a 6.18 ERA, and is signed for another season at $7.25 million. "Some of that was based on injuries to some guys we were really counting on, but some of it was based on poor performance, some poor acquisitions," Hoyer said. espn.com Of course TDL acquisition Clay Holmes didn't even pitch in the postseason...

Mully's name is still on that weblink.

I don't think a TB vs. Milwaukee World Series is going to affect the owners' position heading into this labor dispute one bit. The Pirates have some decent talent right now, but they still are locked into a poor ownership with Bob Nutting. He's only in his 60s, so unlike Moreno and Reinsdorf, age isn't going be a factor in driving him to sell anytime soon.

If Kay can get us through 3 then burke can handle 6. And if we need an inning from someone you can use whoever you want depending on the score out of fedde, Taylor, hicks or newcomb. Just get up 4 or 5 midway through the game.

"However, the one thing I do hate about modern baseball is the use of openers along with bullpen games. If a team doesn’t have five starting pitchers to fill out a rotation, then it is hard to take them seriously. And to think a team would revert to a bullpen game to begin a postseason series is baseball sacrilege. If anyone should never commit baseball sacrilege, it’s Pope Leo XIV’s favorite team." FanSidedInside the White Sox's brilliant bullpen game and creativ...The Chicago White Sox nailed their bullpen strategy to take a lead in the ALDS over the Cleveland Guardians.

Braves copying White Sox "bullpen first" approach minus Sale/Mahle starts

If the Braves can win G3 at Chavez Ravine against Yamamoto...then they have a good chance but not exactly an easy task also if CLE Sox TB face Milwaukee in WS...case for the lookout isn't so obvious from an ownership standpoint except for Marlins and Rockies (even they are under new ownership), not many hopeless franchisATM now with A's TB getting new stadiums and Kroenkes will improve the Angels as well Reds might actually be third worst off atm

Oh my god. It's night and day. He's a pitchers best friend back there with the way he challenges and also calls a game.

Off topic but how important is Teel to our little run?

Ugh....lost the game, Surtain, Moss and Pat Bryant. Bryant injury looks very bad

This team is capturing the hearts of neutral baseball fans very quickly.

Hagen-Taylor will throw a combined CGSO in Game 1 of the WS + be a preview of 2027.

winning is fun and fun is winning. I know which one I'd try and do first.

Guys - let’s talk about 27 after we win the World Series…let’s enjoy the moment we are in right now!

I cannot.

Sox fan went to the White House while Rod went to the Big House.

tray and laugh reacting at posts calling him out on bad opinions, name a more iconic duo

He was on the 15 day with a Lat strain I believe. He might need to be shut down for the season and heal. Probably add Davis Martin and Castillo to the list of get healthy for next year.

Suck it, Cubs fans - the team that totally kicked your ass in the Wild Card round is now down 0-2 to the Brewers after dropping two at "Wrigley North".

Can you imagine the pressure on Cleveland coming into the Rate down 2 games?

We all have an opinion on announcers good and bad. I watched the Bears game today and the telecast and announcing team was terrible.

If Taylor still wants to be a starter, I imagine they'll move him into the rotation with limited starts & innings.
