Next time Suarez is up, I'd just walk him. Crawford is ass

Not his decision.

Do we know if the nerds or Atkins actually make in game pitching changes or just provide pregame data and scenarios
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Ya Randy was already on the run. Although I feel like Vlad reacted a tad bit late or else he could've gotten him.

What sucks with our pen is that they all seemingly have great stuff. But it's like the output doesn't match the talent at all. It's so weird. Is it coaching, gameplanning, idk.

Reminds me of Billy Koch back in the day 25 years ago.


It’s the Blowmano special. Just fast for no reason because it’s so flat. If you time it right it’s over

We can’t seriously be making that excuse still. He won 94 games this year, and he’s a year 4 manager

He definitely gets input from analytics and various other teams. But I would think he has final call on the bullpen at this point

How about Scherzer or Bassitt?

Definitely not Yariel. He was hit hard last time. Same with Dominguez.

As Randle says, no one is a lock to get it done.

Ya which is why I didn't slander Little that much after the last game. Our BP was destined to blow that game. It was just a matter of pick your poison.

No it’s individual talent… good stuff doesn’t mean good pitcher. Look at Nate Pearson, Aaron Sanchez, etc

Fluharty has been the best guy out of the bullpen this series. I would bring him out for one of the innings.
