The weird thing about our bullpen is that they rarely blow leads. They have a 69% save rate, 4th highest in baseball. They make it scary, but generally, when they have the lead, they get the job done. Where they are really bad is keeping games close when we’re down a run or two, last night being a classic example of that. This year’s team has 32 comeback wins, compared to 48 last year. Why is that? Part of it is obviously on the offense, but part of it is that the bullpen doesn’t keep us in striking distance when we’re behind. One way you can tell this is by the W/L records of the starters and the bullpen. Last year, the starters were 57-40, this year they’re 60-49. The starter got the decision 12 more times this year than last year, including 9 more losses (with 3 games to play). That tells you that when the team is losing when the starter is pulled, they keep losing. Meanwhile, the relievers were 44-21 last year, 28-22 now. They’re not picking up wins because they don’t give the offense a chance to catch up and get the win for the bullpen guy. -
I do not disagree with above posts. Also I am pretty sure that this time last season, the Texas Rangers Hangout was saying the exact same things as the Rangers Pen. Point being, you never know until you know. The pen is shaky, but is capable of putting together a solid run from time to time. -

Roster Resource thinks it has tonight's lineup and Kjerstad on bench again. He is 7 AB shy of 130 MLB regular season AB with 3 games left, and if he ends up short some prospect list makers may still label him one. If still with the Orioles, he will be 26 years old by Sarasota. I think the OP has its answer as it has been Cole and Lopez these two nights and the team is preparing for that intensity. -

I’d have brought up Young immediately after DFAing Kimbrel. Baker has no place on this club this year. Would have been nice to see Young up here. -

Yeah, but they could've brought him up a month ago and seen what they might have...And Im not "pining" for Brandon Young, just wondering if he's any better than some we have in the pen.. -
I’d take the Houston trio over Coulombe/Cano/Dominguez. I don’t think that NYY trio is any better than the O’s trio though.
