    why is today more important than the next game or 3?

    I say the next three are important. Would love a sweep but 2/3 will do for me.

    Pat Neshek has 6Ks in 12 PAs against Trout. Surprised to see him warming up now. If you were willing to use him, I thought it would have been at the start of this inning.

    Hopefully Harris will get it done.

    Oh I don't know, your main competition for the WC? Anyways, he would be scheduled to throw a bullpen sessions today if I'm not mistaken anyways. His next start is Sunday.

    Doesn't matter since Hinch would never do it. Let's hope Harris and Luke Greg can close it.

    Hate Hinch staying with Harris here. If you go with Sipp then they will likely counter with Victorino, which is the much more favorable matchup in my eyes. Murphy hits RHPs very well.

    we just can't play in close games due to our sinking bullpen. i'm scared to look at our record in one run games in august and sept.

    C.J. Cron time. Bullpen sucks as usual.

    I'm a critic as much as the next fan, but does every single thing Hinch does have to be met with "that's stupid" around here?

    LOL I just looked, and I would advise you not to do the same.

    I mean his bullpen management is pretty terrible in my opinion. Good manager but terrible BP guy.

    Yes, because he does a lot of stupid things. The poster that pointed out Neshek's stats vs. Trout was right.

    Then he had the 3 games against the Angels and rangers on the road trip.

    Ask poster Major. He has the awesome stats for this bullpen ace to prove his season long domination

    No, I'm trying not to watch as much. Watching these games is torture.

    I think the complaining post is still accurate. If he had gone with Neshek, they would have pointed to Neshek's recent struggles and Harris's good outing last night --> stupid Hinch. It's definitely the thing these threads are overpopulated with right now
