southsideirish71 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 8, 2015 -> 10:13 PM) Curtain call? Really? When we walk them off at the Cell. One of our guys should walk on their hands from 1st to 2nd, run backwards to 3rd, and then do a belly flop on home plate after the team dusts off the plate. Then do the presser right there.

bmags Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 on Monday I thought "oh wow, our bullpen could be pretty good", then they actually start throwing and...maybe robertson is good? He's the only one who hasn't been hit yet. Oh well, just remembering now that sports are 90% painful and 1% fun and 100% drunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 The Royals bullpen has guys throwing 100. We have guys barely reaching 90. And that's not an exaggeration either. Putnam and Duke top out around the low 90s. Robertson, Petricka, and Guerra sit around the mid 90s. We really don't have guys who throw really hard in the bullpen.

Go root for the Rays if you want to be miserable all season. Seriously I think some guys on here would be better off if the team they rooted for was in a constant rebuilding state.

Jose Abreu Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Yes David Robertson, I know who you are and you do look familiar. Sadly, I don't think we'll get to use you anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really don't have guys who throw really hard in the bullpen. We've had a bullpen that throws nothing but heat. That's not what makes them so effective. The are arguably the best pen in baseball because they are accurate and have nasty stuff breaking and straight.

At this point I'm all f***ing for calling up Rodon in a month, put Noesi in the pen (cause Danks won't benefit from it at all) and go from there.

greg775 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Tomorrow could really be ugly with KC already having won the series and already owning the Sox, going for the cut-throat sweep. 13-6 last year vs. Chicago. 2-0 this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
