No fan can ever complain about bullpen usage every guy out there is a crapshoot.  

Agreed the players aren’t producing, but whatever “game plan” Tony and Katz has put together in regards to the bullpen usage has failed miserably.

We have to stop talking about this as bad BABIP luck against the pen. 
 

The shifts and pitch calling has been atrocious all season.  You cannot run the shifts the Sox had on for Bummer there and have your catcher calling outside sliders all day.  They had Cesar pinching up the middle!  What did they think the Jays wouldn’t take the ball the other way??

10 of last 16 batters have reached off of Bummer

When he can't use that slider effectively his sinker just isn't good enough to get him through outings. It's not as fast as it was in previous years.

Well Moncada probably catches that if he watches the ball.  He got in between and didn't bury his head.  That would be a bad play for a HS 3rd baseman.  that's inexcusable for a major league 3rd baseman.  

His defensive WAR will go up
