Kind of changes the game when guys start having to swing 3-4 inches off the corner knowing they'll get called out if they don't.

 

I also get a kick out of the logic that as long as it's consistent, it's all good. Yeah, consistent is still better than inconsistent, but a couple inches off the plate is still by definition a 'ball' no matter how consistent you want to be about it.

Maybe we can go with an 8 man piggyback staff and 4 man pen to avoid this crappy bullpen altogether.

 

Nelson/Davies

Anderson/Woodruff

Guerra/Blazek

Garza/Espino

 

Knebel, Barnes, and Hader are the only ones to throw crucial innings. Scahill or Peralta gets mop up and extra innings.

 

I'm kidding. Mostly.

At some point Stearns needs to take a little heat for not doing something (anything) with the pen. It's one thing to have a mediocre one, but this one can't even handle MLB hitting. This could have been addressed in the offseason, ain't like we don't have the money sitting around collecting dust.

 

Christ bring something in for a look. It can't possibly be any worse than Oliver freaking Drake and Feliz.
