    That's the rough part about bringing the injured back into the fold.

    We needed the Winter Soldier pitching today...

    and got Bucky Barnes the congressman instead. Although 2 runs allowed wasn't bad- we needed a superhuman

    So many quality high leverage guys were available at the deadline.

    I don't think we were ever serious getting any of them.

    these bozos can't even score against May.


    these bats don't know what they're doing.

    Just a brutal schedule @bos (one of the hottest team in baseball), @MIA, @NYY and BOS again.

    3/4 series against teams right in the thick of the hunt and 3/4 on the road.

    Miami was also one of the hottest teams in baseball.

    There’s no way this is a championship bullpen or even pitching staff. Also concerned they can’t score a single run against May? Dodgers let him go for a bag of potato chips for a reason.

    The prices for leverage arms were high and I wouldn’t even be concerned if it wasn’t for Hader going down. Was hoping Dubin would come back strong to help offset that loss, and maybe he will moving forward, but this wasn’t a good start.
