None of these bullpen moves make sense…

I’m at a loss for words

Well, at least if the game gets completely out of hand, that gives us the opportunity to pay them back for Springer, I guess?

Varland not close to a strike

That Ohtani one wasn't really weak, but ours like that haven't been finding holes.

Will pitchers be able to protest balls and strikes next year too?

Up to Manfred,but I would like to see a certain amount per game.

Aren't they going to robo ump for balls and strikes?

Only thing varland has going for him is velocity

You can look at the series as a philosophical debate on approach vs. stuff, we are betting our approach as a team can overcome their stuff, and they are betting their stuff will overwhelm our approach and make it irrelevant. We won the debate for 10 innings, but have lost since.

He has to mess up,or not have his command of 1 or more pitches that day,then we rake,and grind.

Varland is who they trust the most in this bullpen, doesn't matter who it's against.

I would have brought in Fluharty.

Classic.

The nightmare continues.

At least no grand slam now.

So we don't bring in a lefty to face Ohtani and Freeman.

Make it makes sense

Yes.Not sure about how it will all work.

Can we just forfeit the rest of the game

I would have brought in Fluharty. A puzzling move.

Well liked in the clubhouse!
