Sure, many of the same people thought Kimbrel would be a big part of that problem.
24 hours ago, our bullpen could use a couple of key upgrades. After a terrible bullpen night now we have a bullpen with “big problems”.
How was the weather? My recollection was that he didn’t have a feel for it that game and had trouble locating either for a strike or close enough to get a chase.
Time will tell but when I watch Peyton Burdick with Norfolk he sells out for power way more than Fabian and he’s been able to have an extended cup of coffee in MLB and Fabian might be a better defender.
Rooting for more nights like last night even if the home run numbers suffer a little.
Just ask some of those guys in the Christ thread to pray for it. I asked God for my first serious girlfriend and promised if I got that I would never ask for anything again. I’ve been all out of asks for a long, long time.
Holliday is the only thing standing between us having a dangerous hitter 1-9 with our A lineup. Once he gets going, no soft spots. Very few teams can say this. Good pitching still stops good hitting. Just have to hope the Royals pitchers don’t have their A+ games in this series. First two games look like tossups pitching wise, and we look to be at a disadvantage on Sunday. 2 out of 3 would be excellent.
