Bottom on the ninth we have a one run lead. What Bullpen guy do we use? Will and Gregs have been rocky lately

We would still use Luke.

Hamels scratched from upcoming start Thursday, suck it Rangers

I suppose Luke but I wouldn't be opposed to Neshek. I mentioned this in Sunday's thread, I absolutely agree he hasn't necessarily been good, especially with control, but if Lowrie doesn't make his error on Thursday and if Correa doesn't frick up the first batter on Sunday, we aren't having this discussion right now. Everything about this rough patch has just been poor play by the whole team as well as not being able to catch a break.

While I'm not saying I necessarily trust them, Qualls and Sipp have quietly had a pretty damn good last week or 2 as well. I hope they can keep it up and Perez can be solid.

I 100% believe our winning and losing streaks this season have direct correlation with how our bullpen has performed

Anyways.....here's to turning things around tonight, I'm excited to watch some baseball
