The new guy Tony brought into replace Bummer looks just like him.

Didn't Bummer have to come in for the first hitter?

I realize that, but I don't have access to catch probability stats so I gotta look at xBA and use my eyes to see if he really should have caught it. That ball was in the gap, so I don't think any regular CF gets to it. 

I'm not advocating for putting Engel in CF but I think he gets that one.

He was positioned perfectly, he should have caught it honestly

Not sure why Bummer is still in

No it's the apple team. The female is the play by play person for the Orioles.

The male is Chris Young, ex Sox farm hand.

As if it isn't torture enough being an Orioles fan.

Ok, after KK….you STILL leave him in ?!?!

He's gonna be left in to get through Lowe and Franco, for better or worse

Better splits for the switch hitter.

No, if you finish an inning you can come out no matter how many batters you faced, though he faced the minimum of three anyway.

No

a reliever is bad when guys are hitting like 280 off him, it feels like guys are hitting .500+ off Bummer

Hanging slider middle-middle jfc

I rather find out Bummer is hurt than him all of a sudden just flat out sucks like this.

I’ve had it with the mismanagement of this bullpen. Do something about it now.

About the only thing that can help now is signing Trevor Rosenthal 

Hot garbage. 

He's left that slider over the plate twice to Mejia. Do it a third time and we'll lose the lead.

Choi's hit had a .930 xBA. Robert coming close to catching that should tell you just how much range he covers. He's just not real good around the wall and warning track though. 

He was shaded that way though.

Splits become irrelevant when you can't get outs.

Ffs Tony. Are you purposely trying to lose this game?

Not many reliable guys in the pen at the moment.

Much better slider.

No

I thought that was his 3rd hitter.

maybe convert bummer into an opener, he gains strength in batters 4-6.

Bummer is going to be the most overworked pitcher out of our pen
