Idgaf...we need a closer. We DO NOT have one now. Everybody salivates when the FO makes a move or signs a top player ot trade that works out for us, as well they should, I guess. Uncanny savvy. Clever. One sided deal.for LA is what you hear...why were the WSox willing to trade him ? But what about one that is just a total and complete fail ? I'd rather have Pollock playing the OF, instead of " depth" charge Alvarez or someone else. And who knows? Maybe he could actually knock someone in with RISP. Pretty rare these days. But Kimbrel ? He sucks as bad as Roberts calling the wrong pitcher's number, at the wrong time. Kimbrel is such bullshit. Consistently poor. Let's get him more work...so he can blow some more games. Need that. Just love that reasoning.
Lame ass team. Boring to watch and easy to predict. They’ll make the playoffs but they’re not close to being WS contenders. I watch a team like the Yankees and the gap is very wide. Almost feels like I am watching a different sport and I fucking hate complimenting the Yankees.
Three words I never wanted to utter, never thought I'd have to, but now feel compelled to... I miss Kenley.
Gonna be tough to get through the season without a closer. Try Almonte, bring up someone else to give Almonte's present role a shot. Anything is better than a guy like Kimbrel with an over 4 ERA and putting men OB everywhere when he comes in.
