someone ( I think Rick Sutcliffe?) called one of those bullpens circa 2007ish the best he had ever seen ....and it was horrible . Like Andy Sisco, mike macdougal , boone logan etc

Semien must love hitting in front of vlad

I still am confident in hendricks and Kimbrel (though I may be in minority on Kimbrel). But the next arms out of pen should be tepera and crochet instead of kopech and bummer. That said Kopech upside is still big, lets not forget hes basically still a rookie

This is hard to believe. I mean - if only this had just happened recently so we could have learned from it

Wait. Why are we acting like Craig kimbrel has been Jon raunch and Aaron bummer has been peak damaso marte

This game doesn’t matter much. But you get kimbrel for this. This is overthinking and bad managing and will cost us in october

Wow. Just wow

Walk winning run into scoring position ? Wow I’d like to see the numbers behind rhat

All of this because we didn’t trust Kimbrel against Brandon Lowe ????

What an awful decision to go to bummer

If only we had a righty or two or three in the pen who can get a K here ….

So who leaves the 26 man? Mendick back to AAA I presume

Couple win player the last few years. Minor upgrade. Hopefully we didn’t give up much. I think won GG last year right?

Boy that’s hard to believe

You can’t let bummer pitch to Cruz

Bummers numbers are way better than he has pitched

Perfect throw which got him comfortably. A good throw prolly gets him narrowly. average throw bang bang. Bad throw safe

Perfect throw. Nicely played by arraez. I’m ok taking a shot there

Bad pitch call, worse execution. Polanco was sittin dead red whole at bat and then be grooved it

Also big credit to him- he never threw a change up like he did tonight. Was basically fastball slider only before this year. Toyed with the Cooper cutter for a while but that was bad. Even spun a decent curveball or two

I was critical of his usage out of the pen last year down the stretch. Asking him to do something he had never done in high leverage situations coming back from injury. Was also critical of his weight last year as he was noticeably heavier. All credit to Carlos to righting the ship and getting back. Easy to say now retrospect but signing him for 3 mil was a tremendous sign - big upside low risk.

I mean he doesn’t even look close

Looks like jerry Owens

This looks a lot like Kerry wood vs. astros

Nick Williams set up reminds me way too much of nomar mazara
