Well I hope Theo attempts to get some bullpen help, or at the very least someone who can hit and get on base.

It is extremely frustrating to see a gem from Lester and great outing by Hendo only to have the cowpen blow these leads. Its maddoning

He pitched seven innings.
But only 94 pitches.

Hasn't pitched in 7 days either. I would have sent him out for at least a batter. I can live with him giving up the solo shot.

Why take out the guy that allowed an XBH to tie the game?

He took out Holland who retired the guy he faced.

Apparently it is like the starting lineup - Joe decides the bullpen progression a week in advance.

I would like to see more of Wick, or at the least give him a whole inning

At some point we have to stop saving guys for October.

Last year we didn't have one, and we are facing a possibility again.

Just manage to fucking get there.

Well, you will see him in the 9th, because Joe is a "manage fo rteh save" kind of guy, so with the Brewers needing one run to win, Joe will not use his best guy first.

Another outstanding job by the bullpen. Moves Maddon makes are are unquestionable.

Love the lead off walk.
Wish it were anyone else.

But since we are HR or nothing, nobody will play to move guys along.

I can forgive a manager if his options are limited. But to use a guy who threw 26 pitches last night? WTF?

Bunt the ball toward third.

If I trust anyone to bunt with two strikes, Heyward is the guy.
