Correction: belittling OUR players.

Yeah but then we'd have a manager belittling his players for continuing to play baseball in laughers. No thanks!

Hyde's not a good manager but the main problem with the team is a lack of talent.

Probably not. They’re horrendous right now but it’s a long season.

They're very bad right now. It won't be this bad forever, but it's really rough going right now.

What? Plutko hasn’t pitched since Wednesday.

Team is mentally absent, along with just sucking in general.

Someone tell Garceau the term is not "Series final"

Maybe Plutko needs a DL stint.

Plutko God awful right now.

No PH for Zimmermann?

Whew...

This. Guy's young, folks. Give him some time.

He doesn’t even have a enough innings as a reliever to determine that yet. As a starter he was bad... but as a reliever? Still up in the air.

Being a former starter doesn’t mean you can throw more innings out of the ‘pen effectively than a reliever who is not a former starter. Doesn’t work like that.

The issue is overwork

You don’t pull a starter after 1 bad inning lmao. You’d burn out a bullpen in one month. You’re already seeing what happens when you pull starters willy nilly every game. ‘Pen is clearly fatigued.

And Plutko just proved you the fool.

Un-fucking-believable.

Thank God you're not the manager. Probably would have yanked him after 6 but it's defensible leaving him in to start the 7th.

Scott owes Fry a steak dinner

It’s absolutely absurd that we haven’t played TB or TOR yet. We’ve played the MFY and BOS 3 times.

The situation here is someone being pulled after less than 80 FREAKING PITCHES. If you want to debate something like 120 pitches then fine but it's asinine to use pitch count or innings as a justification for pulling Kremer yesterday.

High School pitchers aren't pulled that quick.

No he wasn't.
