Official Vent Your Frustration At Bullpen Thread
Whenever the bullpen erks you.. just let your fingers do the talking... i'll lead off...
I loved the signing of Hammonds in the beginning of the season because he had been so good the past two years. But honestly.. it may be time to cut your losses yet again and DFA yet another arm. |

Anyway, I've said all I need to say about this anyway. I guess that's pretty family-friendly, huh?

Re: Official Vent Your Frustration At Bullpen Thread
It wasn't even about Weathers and Hammond tonight. We know they are washed up, but why oh why does our manager bring them in when you have Belisle and even Standridge that you can bring in?

Yes it was in the minors, but he also pitched a 1-2-3 inning the night before. I see no reason to have guys in the bullpen if you arent going to use them. It made no sense to have Burns in the bullpen when they only used him in blow out situations. |

Re: Official Vent Your Frustration At Bullpen Thread
Forget a trade, just dump the bad ones and sign other junk, would at least be a change of pace

Re: Official Vent Your Frustration At Bullpen Thread
Look, I'm as disgusted as anyone.
But right now, Hammond and Weathers are on the 25 man roster. This means they have to take innings. If you don't use them agains the freakin' Royals with a three run lead in the 8th, when do you use them? Somebody has to pitch the innings. Come August, it's going to be very bad around here if we haven't done something about the bullpen.

Re: Official Vent Your Frustration At Bullpen Thread
Germano would be be a good call up, Claussen (once healthy) as a long reliever/spot starter.. that has got to improve this bullpen

Re: Official Vent Your Frustration At Bullpen Thread
The guy I am really disappointed in is Weathers. He was, at the very least, useful when he was closing. All of a sudden it seems like Double Zero, Burns and Hammy infected him.
It is a miracle that they are still in this thing despite the performance of the bullpen. Wayne...please help. |
