    I'm a Pressly apologist but you have to be aggressive throwing strikes to the first two guys. If they hit HRs, at least we can bring someone else in and so be it.

    SMH at Pressly.

    He had no footing…. Slipped on the first pitch… wouldn’t surprise me if he ends up on the IL again with a knee issue. Velocity still isn’t there.

    Yankees about to finish us off scoring 8 runs on 5 hits.

    Of all the top 10 save leaders in AL this year, Pressley is the only pitcher has more IP than K. That means his stuff isn't scary.

    The velocity is there with 95 mph on the FB. Just not there either mentally or fundamentals

    95 at best. More like 93 with no commmand.

    Zero chance in the playoffs with Presley as closer. Zero.

    That would have been ballgame had we not won that call.

    A reliever who doesn't walk guys!

    Stanek should close, Montero 8th inning. I don't care about contracts or recent past, but the best pitchers in the biggest pressure spots. And I'd also like to see Martinez get some looks in high-leverage innings. Why not? He ets guys out, and the stuff looks legit.
