    Oh and it just so happens we have the youngest (avg of age) staff in mlb, 2 prospects (wisler and banuelos) knocking on the door, and maybe the best 2 prospects (fried and Jenkins) probably making a push next season.

    Got to solve the bullpen. Really interested in mckirahan and vizcaino when they return in July. Next year, Simmons and withrow will certainly help. I think the bullpen bounces back starting around July with mckirahan and vizcaino. Then it really picks it up next year with Simmons, withrow, and lots of money to spend this offseason.

    I think we ride this staff to at least a WC next season and fight with the mets in '17 for the division

    Love Moylan. Hopefully the injuries haven't degraded his stuff too much. Dude has one of the coolest pitcher entrance songs in the majors - TNT by AC/DC.

    And I never thought I'd say this, but I can't wait for KJ to come off the DL. Cunningham can't hit and isn't ready.

    2 hits tonight. I like what Cunningham brings to the table. EY Jr is the guy who should be sent down. Him or Ciriaco.

    This bullpen is terrible. Just terrible. Fredi has no one he can go to and count on.

    I agree. I do think fredi should've pulled cunniff after he faced the 2 right handers in 7th and brought avilan to face inciarte. I don't think it was a huge mistake, but a mistake. If avilan gets inciarte, you've got Johnson for 8th and grilli for 9th

    As you guys know I love Perez, but we may have to move him to the pen and call up wisler. I'd rather give moylan and Ryan Kelly a shot first, but we may have no choice

    This team needs another lefty they can use out of the pen. Avilan's arm is going to fall off. Remember the days when we had Johnny Venter and Eric O'Flaherty as left handed relievers?

    Yes, I do. You know oflaherty just came off dl for a's. I wonder how expensive it would be to get him.

    Mckirahan comes back early July along with vizcaino. If we can stay afloat till then, they might could stabilize the pen.

    Really hoping either/or or both of moylan and Ryan Kelly work out. I think you'll see both very soon

    Runners on the corners with 1 out and Cunningham up. Fredi pulls him for Gomes. Gomes pops up. Cunningham has 5 hits the last 2 days. Defend fredi....

    Bout to lose bc another dumb dumb dumb decision by fredi. Cunningham is 5-6. Gomes hits .200 and is a major defensive liability

    Definitely Fredi's fault that the pen can't hold a lead

    I'm not blaming fredi for the pen. I am blaming fredi for pulling our best defensive and hottest hitting lf, Cunningham (5 for his last 6) and replacing him with a guy hitting .200 that's our worst defensive of. I know you're a huge fredi apologist, but can you pull off your fredi sunglasses long enough to see how incredibly dumb that was? I was mad pre-results, but absolutely incensed post-results.

    Gomes infield pop up then can't get ball that Cunningham could've jogged to. Even if Cunningham doesn't knock in a runner hitting, we probably still win if that out is recorded to start 7th. Oh and even fredi realized how stupid it was bc he pulled Gomes after Gomes blew that catch.
