Pull him. They're killing everything off him. 

Man Bummers slider looks awful

Thank you Tony

Too bad they weren’t hit and running there.

Usually I'd say that you want Bummer to get you a ground ball, but his sinker just isn't sinking. 

Bummer got lucky...but not lucky enough to catch a runner off base.

We didn't use Graveman enough when he was on a roll...so now we are forced to go with Foster.

Russian Roulette.

So Foster is our new unexpected set-up man, at least for a few more days.

Wow we got lucky there.

Yeah Tony, realizing what we all already knew?

Holy LUCK Bummer

Eh. That ball wasn't hit hard, at all. 

With all of the righties due up, it would have made more sense to just start the inning with Foster if TLR was willing to use him here anyways

It was a terrible idea to go to him to begin with. Graveman should have gotten another 2 batters. 

MATT FOSTER? WTF

Or just started the inning with the guy who threw 6 pitches the prior inning.

Was Graveman used yesterday?

I don’t believe so. And day off tomorrow. Makes no sense.

No they're extra careful with him for some reason. He never pitches back to back days.

yeah lucky that was hit right at TA.  Doubtful the luck will hold out.

It's going to be rough closing out games when facing strong LH lineups.

Hahn better be using his imagination because Bummer is shot.  Done 

Peeks in

I think everyone on here agrees Graveman should have pitched the 8th.

Look at free agents available and sign as many as you can to minor league deals with opt out dates.

I agree with people about leaving Graveman in, but Bummer should be able to get through the 8th with no problem. Too bad he can't. Gonna have to stop going to him soon.

LETS GO FOSTER

I hope he's done because I can't take his shit anymore

 

Ride the hot hand in the pen, I like this move after the fuckup, finish them off Matt!
