Marshmallowmilkshake Old-Timey Member Posted Thursday at 03:04 PM Posted Thursday at 03:04 PM I wasn't saying that to be insulting or snarky. I just don't know how a team that is struggling to survive can keep running out there a pitcher who just gets rocked. It's heartbreaking because he's been very good, if not great, in bursts in the past. I feel badly for him that this is happening in a walk year. I don't know what happened after the All-Star Game last season, but this just isn't the same guy.

His previous appearance was four shutout innings resulting in a rare four-inning save against a team that has been crushing the ball since then. And then they sat him for 10 days. I'm sure further failure will lead to further isolation, which they have certainly been doing with him, as other options present themselves, but the team hasn't kept running him out there as he has just gotten rocked. The offense has been far more consistently futile than the pitching. And the biggest offenders are not being isolated. Bat Bo Bichette ninth? Start giving some of his starts to other players? Then we're talking.
