daggins Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 25, 2016 -> 09:17 PM) Too late to get fair market value. Let's try a new manager and staff. For what, Albers? Yeah, he won't fetch much. If you're talking about Sale / Q, that's bogus. Nothing has budged there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that going to make Matt Albers a good pitcher? Bring back Abreau's power? Etc.? Robin is awful and needs to go but this bullpen as constructed blows.

Green Line Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 What is the bullpen ERA since the infamous Texas meltdown? It has to be the highest in baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 This is just asking the baseball gods to hit the ball hard right at somebody. Only possible way to get out of the inning. We're not getting any more outs without help from the baseball gods. Get one more and win it in the ninth. If it goes extras i'm turning it off. I know what will happen.

We're the fanbase. Outside of these games, we're the only ones watching. Bad is bad. The average fan wants winners, and we're losers every year and we retry every year.
