April 3, 201610 yr I gotta imagine people in the FO are always monitoring who's available and who isn't when it comes to relievers. That being said were not the worst bullpen in the majors. Go team by team. There's some really shitty ones out there. Mets included.
April 3, 201610 yr This is a small victory for me. My culture of winning meter goes up a tic. A so Marlins move would have been to retain him. Offense is good if well...the offense shows up. Bullpen itself looks shaky.
April 3, 201610 yr If this isn't the kiss of death for Mike Dunn's career, I've seen this too many times with Marlins players
April 3, 201610 yr Bullpens are so weird...so who knows. If any of these guys struggle, then Barraclough, Ege, Ellington, or Wittgren will be up.
April 3, 201610 yr I gotta imagine people in the FO are always monitoring who's available and who isn't when it comes to relievers. That being said were not the worst bullpen in the majors. Go team by team. There's some really shitty ones out there. Mets included. errr Familia is a bad ass. Mets bullpen is light years ahead of the marlins and that's more because this is probably the worst pen that marlins have ever had
April 3, 201610 yr Vince: "Hmm, so the bullpen is Admin, Mo, Curly, Shemp, the rotting corpse of Saddam Hussein, miamibaseball, Donald Trump, and Justin Bieber? But no brad hand??? Best bullpen ever!!!"
April 3, 201610 yr I expect Barraclough and Ellington to get their control right and get back up. why would you expect something to happen that has never happened in their entire careers?
April 3, 201610 yr Vince: "Hmm, so the bullpen is Admin, Mo, Curly, Shemp, the rotting corpse of Saddam Hussein, miamibaseball, Donald Trump, and Justin Bieber? But no brad hand??? Best bullpen ever!!!" Arguably, yes.
April 3, 201610 yr Well for weeks I've said I wasn't very worried about our bullpen but now I'm definitely concerned. This just isn't the bullpen I thought we'd have when spring started. It's a whole pack of average to below average middle relievers and then there's Ramos sitting in the corner as the only guy who can get outs. I have to believe even Mike Hill knows this and there has to be a short leash on the majority of these guys.
April 3, 201610 yr On the bright side, innings out of the bullpen shouldn't be a problem. You know, since we have 5 long relievers...
April 3, 201610 yr On the bright side, innings out of the bullpen shouldn't be a problem. You know, since we have 5 long relievers... Yeah this. Mike Hill: "Huh? Middle reliever? Setup guys? Late inning relievers? What are those?"
April 3, 201610 yr Such a fucking terrible bullpen. Is Mike Hill even paying attention for potential acquisitions? He's not the man to sign the paycheck.
April 3, 201610 yr why would you expect something to happen that has never happened in their entire careers? Because we have no CHOICE
April 3, 201610 yr He's not the man to sign the paycheck. Ya he is only the man in charge of building the roster?
April 3, 201610 yr why would you expect something to happen that has never happened in their entire careers? Because they have shown how good they can be and I think it's minor issues to be fixed.
April 3, 201610 yr Ya he is only the man in charge of building the roster? I rather to believe it's due to Loria don't want to spend more.
April 3, 201610 yr I have very little expectations coming into this season. The 2nd longest playoff drought coinciding with Loria's reign just makes me numb anymore. I just won't believe in playoffs until after he sells. They will be fighting for .500 not October. This bullpen they put together is fucking shit. Expect to lose games because this cheapskate and his inept FO either are not qualified to make the right decisions or are unwilling to spend to improve the team. There will be players worth watching but overall not enough to win games. This season is just filler to me until NFL returns.... GO JAGS!!!!
April 3, 201610 yr http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2016/04/angels-sign-neal-cotts.html . So we don't need him even only on the minor league deal.
