Obviously easier said than done with the value/scarcity of SP’s, but sure would be nice to acquire/spend $ on proven SP’s AND have a dominant pen.That 4 inning save was stellar....it also might have gassed him. Taylor gave up some long outs in game 2 and well he looked awful today.

1 hour ago1 hr They'd better package him for a bag of baseballs and sushi pops. There needs to be upgrades

1 hour ago1 hr Another issue they will have to navigate is none of the young guys built up their innings total. Gonna be a lot of restrictions once again next year.

1 hour ago1 hr They're gonna have to look at addition by subtraction. Might need to sacrifice some of the young ones for upgrade of they have to trade but it's unfortunately not likely

Taylor gave up some long outs in game 2 and well he looked awful today.That's something that I can't figure out. This has happened a few times this year.The guy has electric stuff, he can look unhittable one game, then a few nights later look like he belongs in single A trying to figure out what the hell to do.
