Can we get some pitching please.
Ole Tommy Glavine’s boy don’t mow them down like his old man.
I bet his dad cringes watching his boy flail around.
This is a reasonably solid team until you get to the bullpen and then it's shit-tacular. I don't know if it's coaching, talent or roster management but it's awful.
Last night's starter went 8 innings and allowed one hit. The "closer" came in in the 9th, loaded the bases with no outs before lucking out of it with a K and a double play. My question, though, is WHY THE FUCK do you leave a guy in after loading the bases with no outs in the ninth inning with a 3-0 lead? How do you justify leaving him on the mound? The first two batters he faced punched two-strike hits. Then he walked a guy after getting ahead 1-2. I know I've got a quick hook, but I'm out of the dugout making a change after the second fucking hit.
It's probably not CWS material but with even a slightly better bullpen you'd be looking at a team with a 19-10 or 20-9 record and a top ten ranking.
