Hard to believe Cole Irvin couldn't do better than this.

You know why he's not here, right?

Absolutely pathetic BP  management again by Hyde.

Perez is trash.

Worst offense in MLB. Well not after facing the orioles BP

Who is he supposed to use.  Eventually someone has to get guys out.  Baker messed us up yesterday being awful then today none of the guys can get anyone out.  If anything this is on Elias because you need more then 1 guy that can give you length.

Frazier saves Perez.

Frazier just saved the day.

How is it on Hyde when the players suck?

Because he pulled Akin too soon. And after he didn't let guys go longer last night and had to burn his best relievers. That started the snowball.

It's not all on Hyde but he's a big contributer.

I don't believe they could have called him back up without an injury this quickly. I guess he's lined up for the next start in 5 days.

Helluva play by Frazier.  that's what its going to take at this point.  I guess Baumann probably starts the fifth, but if he can't go multiple innings, we're in trouble.

Frazier saves the day

This is Gibson’s fault for saying “we’re one of the juggernauts” or whatever.  He angered the baseball gods.  Been playing like dog business ever since.

Both guys he brought in ahead of Cano last night kinda sucked though; there was an easy to see scenario where that game got away if he doesn't get aggressive w/ the BP when he did.  If those guys even remotely do their job and hold the lead at 5, its a different story.

So we can basically jettison Cionel Perez, then? 

He has been terrible this year...

He had a good May til Monday and that was more soft hits but today he gave up hard hit balls vs lefties.  If Baker and Perez can’t get guys out the pen might be in trouble.  

[O's84]

And watch Bieber just get on a roll now.

I do not understand todays bullpen usage. You have two long guys, so you purposefully have one of them throw only one inning? Then you pull the second in the 4th? Now you have no long relievers left, and 5 innings to cover.

We don’t need a starter for 10 days.  Day of Thursday then Monday.
