I can't wait for @Swordsman78 to show up and admonish you all for being so negative.

I showed up for the opposite.

[Angel Oracle]

Minasian, watch the Jays relievers like Garcia (94-99), and LEARN!

[UndertheHalo]

I was enjoying the game and then this happened and then I thought the best thing to do would be to go to the AW GDT and shit post.  Anyway, here I am.

[Halo in Chicago]

What a shit show… 

[CaliforniaYankee]

Aaron Poup ... The gasoline on the fire 

[Lou]

I think everyone should go back and read yesterday's GDT.

Maybe not…

Out of the Loup here, why maybe not? Injured? Horrible outing? 

 

EDIT: Disregard, just realized he had horrible outing 

[T.G.]

Need a 5 run homer right here

[Chuck]

Welp. There goes the family room again.

^^^This^^^ Have spent a bunch of money on the pen the last 2 years…they just have made poor decisions.

Because Minasian loves soft tossing relievers like Loup and Tepera!!!

He wouldn’t know a hard throwing reliever if one stared him in the face!!!

And Nevin refuses to let Moore (hard thrower) pitch to more than 3 batters.   Why?!?????

I'll pass. I'm good, thanks.

[TroutField]

DFA loup and Tepera, I’ve seen enough. They are not going to contribute, they are just going to continue to lose games we have no way of making up later in the year when we are scratching for a playoff spot. 
 

nice that the offense hits 3 homers and then calls it a day. Turn the page…

[rottiesworld]

Maybe they should just get rid of Minasian now and get someone in now that knows about pitching because he sure doesn’t

That’s the problem.

Pen is waaay too inconsistent.

Not nearly enough hard throwers

Quijada and Estevez?

Awful, rather lose 10-0 than blow a friggin lead.

Moore doesn't throw all that hard for a modern-day reliever.  Plus, he's had control issues and pitch timer issues since the beginning of spring training.  I think you have to be pretty careful with him in high-leverage situations right now.

[Lou]

Don't know what you guys are complaining about. Loup lowered his ERA to 13.50 today.

[aznhockeyguy]

I'm always the one that points to small sample size variance when this type of stuff happens, but this is on Nevin.  Why the fuck does he keep putting Tepara and Loup in key situations, when they've shown last season and this season that they're unable to perform in key spots.  So sick of this shit.

Just count from the 6th inning on. 

[Kampy]

Barria will stop their roll, and then we have 6 outs to get 4 runs back. NOOOO PROOOOBLEM

[DMVol]

Minasian has made one good bullpen acquisition …Iglesias….and he became a salary dump…

He wasn't a signing though, but they did give him an extension after trading for him. Perry should trade for more relievers

That’s only two.

He knew before the 2022 season that most teams employ mostly hard throwers.   Yet, Loup and Tepera?
