Yup

I'm not mad at Dusty. I'm just mad at having to watch a shltty BP.

Bunch of soft his balls between the IF and OF. That's baseball. He's not walking guys. They're not ripping him.


He has an ERA of 6.64 out of the bullpen. The experiment needs to be done.

I'm mad we left all those guys on base throughout the game. That's the real problem.

Yep, a starter moved to the pen looked great. Good point.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

How do you play these late innings?

Abreu goes in, you are upset. Paredes goes in, you are upset. Raley goes in, you are upset.

There is literally no one else that Dusty could have put in that you woods have been ok with.
That's true. I said as much an hour ago.

Regardless, Raley and Dusty suck.


The problem is the personnel in the BP. Dusty may not be the best manager, but he can only throw out the guys who he is given to manage.

Experiment? He's been great the last several outings. You gotta bring more than ERA to the conversation when talking bullpen.

As I keep asking, who the hell are you putting out there in this situation that you think can get outs?

We literally used everyone reliable in 10 innings this game.

And as Farmer said, Brooks has been great the last 5-6 outings. He's been on a roll.

Like I said, I did and still do agree with you on that point.

But that aside, my opinion is that Dusty is a super ufcking ****ty manager.

This is the point- exacerbated with bad RISP batting. I made the point a couple of days ago, but the offense has to produce. Less than 4 runs is not good so far.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Raley pitching bp

No, they were just barely fighting them off. I'd say that's far from BP.

Only ER came when Straw couldn't catch a simple pop up.

He hadn't given up a run in his last like 5-6 outings. He had only even given up a couple of hits over that same period. He also got a lot of soft contact that went against him tonight.

Is it just the cool thing to rail on Raley all the time because he's an Aggie?

Damn Altuve.

Hindsight is 20/20 but could have left Javier in for at least one more inning I felt . Was his regular day in the rotation so he wasn't gassed .

As Marvin said , they are going to have to do something with the pen, but what do you give up to get someone worth a flip?

The worst part is it was the Padres bullpen that was gassed coming in

Was that a Straw impersonation by Tucker on that throw? Wow.

But I thought we had to bring more than ERA to the conversation when discussing BP.

And this is awful to watch. If I didn't already have an entire invested into this is have turned it off.

With Tucker you were and are right - there's more than batting average and he's bearing that out.

With Raley you can't defend him. Tonight He was a bit unlucky but he's got a 7.52 ERA this season. He's got a career ERA of 6+. There more to a pitcher than ERA, but when your ERA is that high, you suck. Its like having a .125 batting average. It doesn't matter what else is going on, you suck. Don't need any other stats to figure that out.

He was even mediocre in Korea. He's not a major league pitcher.

This team can fart around and lose games it shouldn't as well as anyone. So frustrating.

Raley is not mediocre. He's done a decent job outside of a few outings.

I didn't know he was an Aggie, he's giving the school a bad name with his abysmal performance

Every single time he pitches he either gets clobbered or has a stressful outing
