The bullpen finally showed some cracks last night. And by cracks, I mean the dam broke.

Let's make sure we pinch hit for Trevor in his next AB

I remember when he was going through a rough patch last year he added it to the mix and it seemed to help get him out of it.

If his slider and fastball are working he shouldn't have to use it as more than a show me pitch though.

I don't hate it conceptually, but it's clearly been teed off on lately and I really don't get why he's throwing so many same-handed changeups.

Not the greatest attempt at catching that ball

He copied Martin.

Not just lately, but last year at this time, when he was going through his rough patch, it was changeups to Moniak and Peralta that cost us two games in LA.

Yeah, I think it's a nice mix up if used sparingly. Once he starts throwing it 20% of the time I think they look for it because it's his easiest pitch to hit.

While we wait, let me put a plug in for all of us to work on improving our vocabulary.

Had I known the difference between "antidote" and "anecdote," there's a pretty good chance my friend would still be alive today.

Doesn't Jax have reverse splits?

Not quite, pretty close to even though I guess.

Bottom line, Jax is their #2 in the pen and he's been very good for several years. You have to be able to trust him in that situation.

I like having Duran more fresh for top of the order. Had Jax put someone on, I think Rocco was ready to relieve him early
