GDT Game 3/3 Jays @ Bosox Rubber-Match

[Carlos Danger]

It might not be the worst move though, Borucki has extensive injury history.

If he can be a 2-3 IP Lefty BP weapon every 3 games that's still very valuable.

Either way, his stuff has absolutely ticked up in the bullpen, which doesn't always happen (see Sean Reid-Foley).

 

We're also really short on lefthanded relievers, while having a huge waitlist of 6th starter types.

 

I think he led the team or was tied for QS in 2018. To me a pitcher who gives you a solid chance at a QS every outing in this day and age is more valuable then a lefty specialist if it were and either or scenario..

[DigitalRock]

No reason to remove Borucki there.

[Jonn]

Zero reason to pull Borucki. Zero.

[Spanky99]

He can have that terrible nickname in a bullpen role.

 

lol

[Krylian]

Aceukci wasting away in the bullpen as a loogy...

 

Loogy's don't really exist anymore. Not really.

Right, but he's also never tossed more than 100 IP.

There are real durability and health issues since we drafted him in 2012.

For whatever reason, they don't think Borucki is very good. Someone should explain to charlie Borucki has struck out 9 through 4 innings and only allowed one hit and no runs.

And he fell apart physically after that. Hes not going to a lefty specialist. He’s going to be a great reliever period. The current manager is stupid. The next one will figure it out.

[BlueRocky]

Hatch is good.

[bones10]

We have one of the best bullpens in the league so far early this year. Unbelievable.

[Orgfiller]

This is complete and utter dominance from the starters-pitching-as-relievers corps.

[Krylian]

I would be forced to change it to Saveurcki....

 

I didn't think it was possible to have a worse nickname than Aceucki.

 

Congratulations.

[saskjayfan]

Our young pitching is ridiculous.

[Spanky99]

Hatch's a beast!!!

[Plat]

Bullpen is insane right now, add a healthy Giles wow

[Jonn]

This bullpen has been very boner inducing lately.

[EdwinsParrot]

nice work hatch

[G-Snarls]

This is complete and utter dominance from the starters-pitching-as-relievers corps.

 

Love it

 

Bodes well for the next few years

[DigitalRock]

Bullpen has been crazy good, who'd have thunk it.

[Angrioter]

Hatch is a stud

 

Sean Reid Foley is done?

[Spanky99]

Lights out.

[G-Snarls]

Bullpen has been crazy good, who'd have thunk it.

 

Above expectations

 

Offense has been below it

[Jonn]

If only Montoyo didn’t let Giles throw 15 pitches hurt we might still have him dominating as well.

[Jonn]

Hatch is a stud

 

Sean Reid Foley is done?

 

Forgot he even existed.

[Ray]

Hatch is a stud

 

Sean Reid Foley is done?

 

We don’t say that name around these parts.

[Carlos Danger]

Come on, we should be able to light up Barnes.. It is only a matter of time..

[Orgfiller]

Hatch is a stud

 

Sean Reid Foley is done?

 

Sean Reid-Foley's stuff hasn't even ticked up in the bullpen. I think it's fair to say we won't be seeing him for a while.

[saskjayfan]

Right, but he's also never tossed more than 100 IP.

There are real durability and health issues since we drafted him in 2012.

 

He threw 135.2 in 16, 150.1 in 17 and 174.2 in 18. He had injury issues last year and early in his minor league days. He's still only 26 years old.
