Hard to believe Kuechel would quickly become the worst pitcher on the staff. Gives the lead right back.
~half of the losses this year have come with the starters turning over a lead or a tie to the pen. That was my point. It's not good. Might get better later.
He got a textbook groundout to 2B for the 3rd out with the bases loaded but there was no fielder there and it turns into a 17-hopping 2-run single. You're damn right I'd be pissed.
Yesterday’s loss, the Cleveland implosion and the Giles/Hinch choke job against the yanks at home earlier this yr really stick in my craw.... those are big games against teams we will be competing w for home field advantage (assuming CLE gets it going). Just hate the over managing of the bullpen in some of these situations, and HATE that the pen, which on paper is one of the better in the league, decides to really start crumbling as soon as our bats FINALLY get going. And f**k the Yankees!
