    How many games has our bullpen choked away in the last 2 weeks

    Granted this was a tie game going into extras...

    Oh well Yanks keep losing. Really wanted to stick it to the Braves though.

    The Braves are our kryptonite.

    I wish this bullpen still has Seth Martinez. I'm tired of seeing Maton's non-face.

    This bullpen is straight up losing games. They cannot go into the playoffs with this group and not make any changes. Bring Martinez back. Call up Brown and any other young guys who are close who you think can give you something. But this group cannot get it done in big moments, and we cannot trust them.

    Seth Martinez and Hunter Brown are just waiting for the call from Click. Maton can go to Sugar Land for one of them and the other can come at September call-ups.

    Cause of his next man up philosophy regardless of what's working.

    Seriously even the most ardent supporters of Dusty would say he needs to be fired after tonight

    Nobody really scares me in the AL but the Braves, Mets or Dodgers could beat the Astros in the NL. Baseball is quirky and hard to predict though.

    every time. It's crazy how much they will hype the Astros to wake up the baseball gods.

    Pressly threw 11 pitches.

    If it's me I'm bringing him back out in the 10th.

    Still ATL b!tch!!

    Should've left Pressly out there. He looked solid.

    That was a dumbass move sending Martinez down to the minors.

    You could not position your fielders worse than the AstroComputerMuppets did in the extra innings.

    Giving away outs. Repeatedly.
