    Looks like history won't change... that seventh didn't help

    Hope getting one more out was worth the one run given up :confused:

    They are carrying 13! Pitchers on the 25 man roster. What's the point of that if your afraid to put play sub them in the 7th inning

    If the 2014 #1 pick turns out to be a HOFer... we will have this bullpen to thank for it.

    Its unbelievable how un-clutch they are... its almost harder for them to be this bad vs an elite bullpen being super good.

    How is our bullpen this bad?

    So, that's now 61 HRs given up by our bullpen and the second most is 39? I recall reading that somewhere last night anyway.

    My thoughts exactly... but who would you want out there other than Cisnero and Veras? This pen sucks so much. Give me Stoffel, or give me Chapman... or Peacock... or even Zeid.

    I don't really trust Cisnero. Had that good stretch, but his WHIP isn't good.

    Agreed, but my distrust for him is the second lowest on the team. That's the thing with this bullpen... where else are you going to go?

    An even remotely competent LFer keeps the runner on 1st from scoring.
