It's gotta be Hoffman for the 8th, right?

Hard to complain about how deep our starters are going when you compare them to Seattle.


Seattle has the best bullpen in the majors. Their starters going more than 3 innings is a luxury.

That Vladdy bases loaded forceout in the second was supposedly a top 10 hard hit ball this post season

Could really use those 2 runs right now

Dude Varland was our prized pickup. Who else would you go to here? Dominguez? Yariel? Lmao, little? He’s literally out best option… our bullpen just sucks. Idk why bassitt isn’t getting warm. They put him on the roster and haven’t used him all series. Also Seattle hasn’t seen him yet…

All the bullpen deadline acquisitions have been duds.

He,s not the only one they should be using.


Schulman talking about it now, circle of trust is very small. Seems like it’s been Varland, Hoffman, Dominguez and Little

I’m even surprised Fisher hasn’t been used more. Fisher and Lauer have both been exceptional

The kaknuckle heads should re read the dictionary meaning of the word trust lol
