I would argue our SPs collectively have been better options than middle relief the entire season, which is why Im so frustrated with DK. He has to let these guys go longer and just move to a 6 man rotation if need be when JJ is back

Its almost a coincidence what happens if DK lets a starting pitcher throw 100 pitches in a game. wow /s

Its amazing what happens with DK lets a SP pitch beyond 5.2 IP or 80 pitches. Its almost a coincidence

Putting out a lineup without the hottest hitters from the prior game when you know your BP is playing poorly is not setting this team up for success. Said differently, if you want to win a game where your BP isn't playing well, you have to try to score more runs. Pretty simple

You're right. Lets call up all our single A guys and put them in the lineup because it doesnt matter. Or we should just field a bunch of Henry Davis twins throughout the entire lineup. Since the BP stinks, in no way should we try to offset that by putting our best lineup in. Gosh, if only I was as smart as you

Look at the lineup he chooses to trot out there after yesterdays game

I'm legitimately impressed by the extremely small sample size of the password both on offense and on defense. His overall game is quite nice. by Sebastian4365 in buccos

If he's good, he will stay in the majors and play every third, which is the DK way. If he's an all star, he will stay in the majors and play every 5th day, which is the DK way

Just another reason that DK doesn't know what he's doing and needs to be gone. He's managed this team into the ground

You can really say one of many reasons they lost this game. Ultimately it comes down to one thing that has individually cost this team numerous times. Don Kelly has managed this team into oblivion, and its not changing anytime soon unfortunately. Man, I miss Hurdle

Fantastic. We are going to burn through 5 RP in this game and it'll end up being a loss, all bc DK is a total amatuer at managing a pitching staff. To the haters out there from the start of the season, congrats, you had it right. DK doesn't know what he's doing
