When Hahn went and got bullpen arms this winter, I wonder what he thought the outcome would be. What did he envision?

Spend all of our money on the bullpen and dumpster dive to fill out the rosters 

Was he pitching around him there? Wasn’t even close to the plate

No shot.  There's no reason McGuire shouldnt already be in defensively subbing.

Don’t worry boss. TLR will make sure that doesn’t happen ?

Go take a piss and the guy everyone was screaming for in the 8th inning already gave one up. 

Go figure. 

 

Yeah, who knew a runnner starts on second in the 8th now too.

Well, that wouldn’t have been a run yet without the ghost runner.

Mayza will pitch bottom of the tenth.

What's gonna be funny is when La Russa pinch hits for Zavala in the bottom half

Better late than never, but with a lefty possibly coming he may like the “handedness” advantage

With a guy already on 2nd that does matter. But yes I see your point.

Against the lefty he mashes 

If you’re willing to use Graveman tonight…..why in gods name would you use Davis Martin in the 8th with a 2 run lead?

There's not a single manager who would risk playing into a big inning vs just allowing 1 run.  If he beats me, he beats me. 

This would be quite a setback if they don’t come back. Wasted the bullpen.

Ever try running full speed through a waste high ball while coming in? 

Exactly. Might've been lower than waist high too. Want to get your glove horizontal rather than pointing down on a back hand play like that.

Graveman and Chapman teammates on the A’s.

Our bullpen is garbage. We spent all this money on Graveman where we could’ve signed a couple relievers or another LH bat.

No problem everyone, Manfred ball is mostly about situational hitting and....oh never mind that's not a good thing.

So why didn't you pinch hit for Selby?  You had two shots at it.

 

HoF boy" Is that really a question?"

To be fair he gives up zero runs if a runner doesn’t start on 2nd

I just don't agree with that. 

Especially when you have 

KIRK good hitter

ZIMMER he blows

ESPINAL

I'm taking my chances in walking Guerrero

I mean, for what we're paying the guy, I would appreciate it he simply just strands him there.   

That's allowed to.
