1 hour ago1 hr The place was absolutely rocking tonight. A real waste of a packed house and incredibly favorable pitching matchup. Felt like a sure win.

Bummer. Just have to go get em tomorrow and have other guys pickup Hudson / Taylor.This is the second time in the last five games the bullpen has not been able to close the door and put the contest in the win column. They could be starting to break down because the starters aren't going deep into games.That to me is absolutely a cause for concern.
1 hour ago1 hr 1 hour ago, 2Deep said:Another aspect is dont understand is if you how are going to pitch Taylor two innings, why not just let him start the 8th? Just stupid decisionsEven with stronger arms in the pen this year they still havent "defined" roles. I feel like there was an effort early in the year with Dominguez but when that failed they just went back to the matchup game. No more bullshit. Make Taylor the closer, Brazoban can be a nice 8th inning guy with Hicks going the 7th and lefties to be used as needed. No more 40 pitch Taylor outings or adventures in the 6th. There are so many tools in that pen being improperly utilized and thats the most frustrating part.
