    An embarrassment of riches for this bullpen... especially with Devenski about to come back and frankly, not really a role for him. (he's the post 5th inning, "need a strikeout" guy).

    Now we need another 5 run inning so we can save our 2 closers for Tues and Wed.

    Man, that was hilarious.

    Fielder ****s up, twice.

    Then Reddick almost messes up.

    I wish we could trade one of them for a top notch lefty during the offseason but with the way Valdez has looked especially against lefties I think he may get a shot next year out of the pen.

    I think Reddick might have scored on that play.

    That doesn’t even count when Lance is ready.

    I was listening to Davey Johnson who was saying the Astros or A’s or Yankees could go to their pen in the 2nd inning in the playoffs.

    They re-made this bullpen without that much effort (minus the risk of taking on Osuna).

    Granted, spending prospect and FA money on the bullpen is only done by the teams with a contending window... but I don't think it will be hard for Luhnow to fill whatever bullpen needs they have either internally or with in-season trades.
