Doesn't matter, he'd faced 3 batters, they can pull him if they want
Yeah but faking the injury gets Raley all the warmup he wants.

Before we get to the head cases in our own, it must be said that Bielak doesn't have elite stuff.

Cora is not gonna let them use an injury substitution without arguing (and I don't blame him)
Faced 3 hitters so it doesn't matter, right?
Its to get Rsley the most time to warm up since Dusty didn't even get him warming up until late.

Yes it does. Now Raley can warm up on the field.

It's time to trade Straw, bring up Siri and get some bullpen help.

I understand why we want Parades to be good. He's can look electric at times. But he can't repeat his delivery/release point and he's very very far away from being someone who can reliably come into a game and execute.

I'm kinda surprised we've given him as long of a leash as we have.

Two dropped fly balls and the next thing you know it's a 5-run inning on 2 hits

Well, that's that. Bullpen (and defense) should be absolutely embarrassed by this.

And it's only the bottom of the sixth.

Trade Straw? For a bucket of sunflower seeds and a pack of big league chew?

In dusty's defense I dont know who else you turn to that inning. Maybe Raley but even he is inconsistent


My point exactly

Are all of these unearned because of Tucker's error?

It's not pulling him that matters, it's how many warmup tosses the next guy gets.

They didn't make any improvements.

Our starters were going 7, 8, and 9 innings.

Does straw pitch? Because unless he does, he's not who needs to go.

Bullpen right now:

But seriously Paredes shouldn't see the big leagues the rest of this season.

Send him to AAA and tell him to throw strikes. Not get people out. Not pitch to contact. Just throw strikes. Who cares if you get hit. Throw strikes.

Games where the ump isn't really giving the edge hurts Greinke so much.
