This is the consequences of an over worked bullpen.

Graveman and Hendricks are also on a thread awaiting a serious arm injury.

 

If there's anyone in the pen who *hasn't* been overworked it's Joe Kelly

Kelly was TLR precious. That's the guy he wanted. And judging by his imput on players in Arizona, Reinsdorf, Hahn, etc. Have to lie in that bed too.

pretty amazing that nobody ever talks about how disastrous his tenure in az was.

Kelly is the exact profile of reliever Hahn has been acquiring for a decade. I'm sure he was on board with it too

I don't think I'd be against signing him if he was actually healthy. But he was hurt and we gave him a very player friendly deal that nobody else was gonna give him. 

Teams like New York, Boston, and LA can sign relievers for 8million plus and be ok if they tank. 
 

The White Sox cannot. What a fucking horrible signing. 

Jimmy likes first pitch pop-ups.

I wonder if that Kimbrel guy is available. Numbers are down so he shouldn't cost much and he's due for a rebound!

Oxygen sickness no joke.

Had it in Tibet.  Took nearly 24 hours to get through it.

Cron looking fastball and got the slider

Lambert hung the shit out of that and got away with it.

So you would rather lose than lose. Makes perfect sense.

I mean right now, I guess you could call a playoff appearance as successful of a season that we can realistically hope for given the strength of the AL. 

Well that could have gone much worse 

Thought Moncada was going to mess that up.

Great move bringing in Lambert. Lol

Sure.  They can lie to him again by telling him he's gonna be the closer!

But he is coming back from a serious bicep injury in the off-season, which the GM failed to consider heavily.

 

I’m going to pretend that wasn’t a hanger

The first time they pitch him back to back days and he hurts his arm. 

Lambert is a stud. When’s the last time he allowed a run?

I thought it was gonna somehow go out of play.

He was smart enough to put it in his contract.

You mean to win the Central or for anyone to overcome the Yankees Astros and now Blue Jays/Mariners again?

He was so smart to get the second DUI to take the focus off that 

lambert is saving our asses lately.

Anyone know what the deal with Reynaldo is???

Didn't use him yesterday or today....
