He's on fire today. Let's hope he can sustain this type of effort!

Horrible coaching, horrible defense, terrible hitting...8-3 loss

Really not sure what happened with this team, seemingly on May 1st.

 

Losing Osuna the way we have, seems like it affected the team worse than had he just came up with dead-arm or elbow issues. Essentially, he's absent in either scenario, but this seemed to affect not only the team, but Gibby as well. Unless you have an absolute terrible set-up man, it should have been simply bumping everyone up a notch in the pen. Tep to close, and then choose the setup guy (likely Oh). if Tep drops the ball as Clip did, then you make the change, but I think that would have sent less shockwaves through the team and bullpen vs. putting Clippard in there first. Clip just doesn't have the stuff at this point in his career to be put to close unless a lot of other options fail. I think Gibby went with him because of the mental makeup and veteran experience, but it backfired.

Seems like the Osuna incident was the beginning of the end for this team.
