    Bill O'Brien. Former Houston Texans head coach.

    Could Rocco be the next BOB?
  4. cHawk
    It’s not that bad, is it?
  5. cHawk
    We’re making 5.00 ERA Perez look like a TOR arm. That’s a problem.
  6. cHawk
    Why can’t we hit with RISP?
  7. cHawk
    Can we keep scoring runs?
  8. cHawk
    Like if you think the bullpen will $*** the bed again, quote if you don’t.

    If Happ can’t get through the 5th then I’m a bit concerned

    They’re called productive outs.
  12. cHawk
    In context, it's expected for at least one run to score with a runner on 2B with no out.
  13. cHawk
    Not necessarily with the first one. Of the 53 runs they’ve scored, only 22 of them have come via HR. The second one is spot on but not the first one. If you look at last year, many games they would only score on HRs. It’s looked a bit different thus far.
  14. cHawk
    A runner on 2nd with no out is a 1.068 run expectancy. I’d say it’s more the on the hitters for not scoring 3/3 times in that scenario.

    “Alex Colome is a problem” He shouldn’t be the closer. Put him on in the 6th or maybe the 7th. Robles or Rogers or Duffey should be the closers. Except no Colome tomorrow please...he needs a day or two off. What is Wes doing with Colome? All of the sudden he looks like absolute @$$. I am concerned about the pen but I’m not going to freak out. In 2019, our bullpen looked like this at the beginning, and it pulled itself together. But for now, adjustments need to be made. Colome should not be the closer. Alcala or Rogers or Robles should.
  16. cHawk
    I have a joke. The front office.
  17. cHawk
    I believe it is fixable. But Colome is in no way a closer. 6th Inning or maybe 7th at the absolute most. Make Rogers and Robles the closers.
  18. cHawk
    Yeah, the bullpen is a problem. Make Rogers and Robles the closers. Duffey, Thielbar, Alcala, and Stashak are the setup guys. Colome...is he trolling us?
  19. cHawk
    Worst bullpen in baseball
  20. cHawk
    To me, this should be the order vs RHP: 1. 3B Arraez 2. 2B Polanco 3. DH Cruz 4. CF Buxton 5. SS Simmons 6. C Garver 7. RF Kepler 8. 1B Sano 9. LF Cave
  21. cHawk
    I mean Kepler does have a .250 BA and ~.340 OBP. Sano absolutely though
  22. cHawk
    And another popout. Great situational hitting.
  23. cHawk
    A one pitch popout.
  24. cHawk
    But what about Innings 1-9? They've done a better job of stringing base hits together this year so far. Even then, it's too early to say that the situational hitting will be "pathetic" all season long. When they've had runners at 2nd and 3rd, they've gotten them in for the most part in Innings 1-9. It obviously has been in the 10th Inning but not "often times" in all innings.
  25. cHawk
    You do make a good point, BUT... Let's look at a thing called run expectancy: https://library.fangraphs.com/misc/re24/ If you look at the table, you'll see the spot with a runner on 2nd with 0 outs. The number is 1.068. This means that more often than not, at least one run scores. So, what's a bigger problem: The offense putting up a goose egg 3/3 times in that scenario, or the bullpen giving up one run 3/3 times in that scenario? I still don't think this is a championship bullpen but saying these 3 losses have been SOLELY the bullpen's fault is inaccurate.
