    It’s about time. Need to send Teng to the bullpen as well.

    I am not happy he’s a reliever. I’m still waiting on them to make Abreu a starter. At any rate I’m excited to see it and I’d put him into the 8th inning role (or 7th leverage if it’s a pocket of all RHH) and see what happens.
    And to piggyback on @Buck Turgidson, throw strikes *******.

    King is settled and effective as the setup man. They need a leverage righty to complement Hader and King and it’s possible they think Ullola can meet the moment, especially since De Los Santos appears to be waning and Blubaugh seems more fit for multi inning middle relief than single inning leverage. But it could also just be that they want to reward Ullola for taking so smoothly/quickly to relief and need a fresh arm because they burned the pen today.

    Sure. I was saying 8th because we could go LRL which seems valuable with it being 7th if it’s all RHH but we are on the same page I think.
