If Charlie started Tapia we'd be winning 7-6 right now.

 

Maybe he can pitch tonight.

Only a matter of time before thornton turned back into a s*** baller

 

But he was great against KC, Detroit and Baltimore....oh, wait.

Yeeeeehawwwwww

 

Time to bring up some different pitchers. Pearson and Hernandez

 

This game you may get your wish.. if you meant Teo H. Lol

This bullpen is f***ing embarrassing. They just get their s*** kicked in on a nightly basis.

 

It's crazy how they didn't completely overhaul the bullpen after the shitshow last year.

The back of the pen guys the Yankees will use tonight to finish this game will be comparable to our top guys.

 

Outside of Cimber, Mayza, and Romero (although less recently) I’m usually nervous as f*** in a close game.

On a more serious note, the Yankees are absolutely sitting on our breaking balls. Somebody needs to confiscate Aaron Boone's apple watch.

This drove me mental last year. I thought we should have been making more bullpen moves than we did and I thought they should have been done earlier.

 

This year it’s not nearly as bad so I wouldn’t expect any moves.

 

It is a little disappointing that we don’t seem able to develop our own flamethrowers though. Our pitching development has been getting better but we are still behind the best teams.

 

We don’t seem to be able to just manufacture enough of our own pitching, we don’t trade real assets for relief and we don’t spend a lot in free agency. Hence we have a mediocre pen.

Damn second straight blowout loss. This one got out of hand in a hurry.

 

Cant hit when the pitching is good. Cant pitch when the hitting is good. Manager sets the tone for the team, soft.

Its time for Shatkins philosophy on the pen to change. Sure its nice to have cool stories like David Phelps. But you need guys who throw hard and miss bats late in games. Good hitters just make you pay in clutch situations.

And yet out manager cant wait to go to our bullpen every game. f***ing douche game plans from our entire management. You want to manage like the Rays... get the same f***ing arms like them then.

 

This is precisely what drives me so crazy. If you're going to be obsessed with the analytics, you better have suitable talent to work with or else the logic goes out the window.

Let Lawrence pitch out most of this game and re-group for the weekend.

 

Yep, have to flush it and move on.

talent gap on display

 

Montgomery is their #5 basically and he is so legit

 

Toronto's middle relievers are useless against good hitters

Yeah, it's a depth issue.

 

We have a depth issue at starting pitching too. I sacrifice a live chicken to ensure Manoah's, Gausman's and Berrios' health before every start. We have a bit of work to do at the trade deadline. Pearson definitely has the ability to help potentially both the bullpen and the rotation if one of the guys go down, but we need to make a couple trades. I'd try and get Robertson early because Chicago has no hope of the playoffs and how much could old man Robertson cost?

What exactly is it about our bpen philosophy that you don't like?
