  1. This is the internet, people have opinions and they aren’t always ones you agree with. When a guy blows a lead like that 2 times in one week and then is put in that same situation again a week later and predictably implodes, yeah people are gonna be a little unhappy
  2. That’s a fair point but you could argue that you have a chance to win a game RIGHT NOW. Whoever you use today won’t be available tonight and what if tomorrow is not a close game, one way or the other?
  3. Great point. I recognize that there are inning concerns with duran, but again if the option is pagan or duran for 2, I know which way I’m leaning
  4. My biggest complaint with Rocco is his pulling starters too early (not today’s problem). I have freely admitted in the past that he doesn’t have much to work with but if you’re going to keep putting the same guy in the same position that he’s proven to be bad in, then you’re fair game to be criticized. And again, my original point was that guys who can finish games are not overrated as has been said often here
  5. Didn’t say that was the answer. There are better options than EP for the 8th. One was used in the 7th. There aren’t many worse options than him for that role. Duffey and Cotton probably.
  6. Gutting. At least we won’t have to wait long to make up for it
  7. I agree. Not everyone can finish out games and obviously EP has proven that he can’t more often than is acceptable. Guys who can get those last 3-6 outs are not overrated
  8. Duffey was essentially blackballed (and deservedly so) after his failure to do his job. Pagan keeps getting the same situations no matter how many times he fails
  9. I’d rather him in the 9th, but if the other option is Emilio pagan for the 8th, then I want him for that too. Literally how many more times does pagan have to fail in the 8/9 innings until he stops getting those innings.
  10. Yes duran is only used in the 9th, my mistake
  11. What a game to blow. Clawed back just to do this.
  12. Mind boggling we keep using him in this situation.
  13. Just gonna leave him in til it’s fully blown I guess. Maybe we won’t have to use duran then
  14. Pagan is just the worst in these situations. So tired of it already
  15. I’m not sure of all these new fangled rules, but I don’t think you can put in a guy who’s on the IL
  16. Closing out games is easy, anyone can do it! /s
  17. Walking the 9 hitter. Again we go through this, wanting pagan to be the 8th inning guy so badly, no matter how many times he fails at it
  18. Yeah that does seem to be a new thing. Guys just lobbing it in there. Like I said, someone is going to get hurt before it changes
  19. Position players pitching does nothing for me. I don’t find it neat or fun to watch. I keep thinking one of these guys is going to get a 100 mph line drive at his head. Looks more dangerous than anything else
  20. Big giant Krylon logo on the mound has me thinking of Johnny bench
