We doing this? Really?

that was a rolling breaking ball, JFC.  This is why I don't really like trading for relievers, they are just so volitile.

They are hitting him harder than anyone has this year.  Serving it up to his old mates.   C’mon Kimbrel !

No way this guy should make contact off Kimbrel

Boo

Curveball hung there. Like I said, his curve hasn't looked very good the last 2 times out. 

is our bullpen coach insisting that we should be hanging all our breaking pitches? 

That curve isn’t hitting any of his spots.

Also trading for a closer and putting him in a set-up spot

nothing easy with this fucking club recently.

This is why Kimbrel was so bad the past 2 years. He couldn't get his curveball right and he was straight up terrible. 

Missing in on every fastball

It's always tough for a pitcher when he changes leagues mid-season and has to start pitching in unfamiliar parks.

Everything and anything is like pulling teeth currently

Kimbrel is struggling because Tony didn't go outside the Box and pitched him the 7th instead. 

Yay!

Bad spot to a lefty on that one. Got a good result thankfully.

Lol. Sometimes pitchers give up hits. 

why is that dipshit sitting there without his shirt on? he looks like a fucking moron.

Maybe he just had some nerves going against his former team.

lmao no craig kimbrel is not a HOFer, is Len high?

Career closer being used in the 8th inning. The adrenaline is not there.  I'd rather Hendriks get the 8th and Kimbrel the 9th.  Hendriks is walking adrenaline.  

Pretend it's the fucking 9th

COME ON

If we wanted someone to make things interesting in the late innings, we could've just traded for Colome.
