Eh, I flat out don't trust Warren and I felt like i saw the tea leaves of a meltdown. I would have let him go one more batter, but i don't think anymore. The williams thing.... yeah.. just stupid. The guy is toast and everyone knows it.
I get that Yarbrough can give you length if needed but don’t you sort of have to concede this game and let Schlittler take his beating to save the pen for the next two games? Now you need 8 1/3rd out of a pen that’s already relatively beaten down considering you only have like 2 reliable relievers.
Remember the flowers Cashman was getting for the relievers he picked up, and where they are today. Bednar has been solidish, makes it sketchy a decent amount. Duval looks like he sucks. I don't see the location nor the stuff. You can also tell Boone does not trust him with how he's been used. The guy from Colorado is in the minors. I forget his name, that's where he's at. I look forward to being fed these guys as answers in the off season by Cashman while Weaver walks. Then it'll play out.
3 runs walked in/HBP, 1 on a wild pitch and two singles before the big damage. That escalated quickly.
It made more sense to pull Warren this game with 91 pitches and a 2-2 game but it back to back games he’s looked decent with only one real mistake and it didn’t work out pulling him. Looks like he needs a chance at the third time through the order and take it hitter by hitter. 1 walk, 2 hits this time..
And now we learn Volpe’s been playing hurt since May. I swear to god this organization is poorly run on a mind-boggling level.
The only time he’s hit since then is when he’s had a day off or multiple (ala All Star game week). Probably the fucking reason the poor dude can’t reach first base.
