    Hader deserves to get booed every time he pitches for the rest of his contract.

    I don't value chokers, it's why Billy Wagner has no business being in the HoF.

    And about to lose Bregman for nothing. Should have traded him and gotten something for him.

    Hader was such an astronomically bad signing

    What a collapse. I like how Espada thinks that pressly and hader with one run would be enough to win the game.

    Still ending the dreams of the Mariners is still worth it. We got comp picks. The point of the game is to win, not to collect assets.

    Well. This is a dilly of a pickle. But we are still alive.

    Older, slower, and worse.

    Crane will milk Jose for a while, they'll win 75-ish games for the next few years, then he sells and the team returns to the basement.

    Really should've brought Abreu back out there instead of Press

    Abreu
    Hader will be good over time.

    What else can he do? Who in the bullpen do you trust in that situation?

    This generation's Billy Wagner, amazing stuff, great numbers, but not worth a penny come October. Useless.

    Maybe not worse.
    They will certainly get off to a better start next year.
    I expect some changes in the offseason that will help.

    in the end, tigers got the crooked numbers.

    that's how baseball works.

    We need to consider flipping Tuck for some prospects before he leaves for nothing too

    Bullpen is frustrating but 2 of 17 out of the 1 through 5 hitters is inexcusable.
