I’d argue it’s a symptom of the ineffectiveness of the staff as a whole. Palm has to start going deeper in games. Ziehl, Schlesinger, etc need to throw strikes/get outs in setup. Reverse the games but for our starting pitching (Ligon gets last night’s defense and run support) and we’re not...

It’s going to have to be Romero or Burke. I probably slide Burke back to 5th for an another post Yoyo power bat and try Dorian again in the two slot. That doesn’t solve the 6-9 problem though.

Seems fairly clear we are. His first three outings have been 1.2, 2.0, and 2.1 innings respectively. He’s very much being put in the Palm role from last year. You obviously prefer not to put him in games in the 7th, but that requires other relievers to get outs to get him the ball in the 8th...

You win the game in front of you. I’ve not seen anything to indicate going to Arguelles, Radelunas, or Torres would have stopped the bleeding (ie walks) last night. If we have a lead in the 9th tomorrow I wouldn’t be surprised to see Walters for an inning.

Just dreadful tonight defensively and at the plate.

I still need to be sold on Garland (he can do that tomorrow) and the bullpen outside Walters

There’s little good to say about this performance so far, but we do seem to have found another weekend caliber starter.

If Elliot Avent were in the other dugout the kid would go 120 unless we knocked him out. @ewcanes is right about O’Sullivan but he does take care of his pitcher’s arms.

Sigh

O’Sullivan tends to follow tight pitch counts
