I don't think Sipp has pitched since he returned but I'd like to see him get some opportunities and see if he's pitching any better. Liriano hasn't done shite to lock up the job either so throw Sipp back into the competition and see if he can contribute.


I'll allow it.

I wouldn't mind having the last 3 weeks of the season be like an "audition" for the role of lefty out of the pen. That being said, I have no idea what Sipp's prognosis is.

At this point we're stuck with what he have. Liriano has the better stuff but it's not doing much for him. He's spent time as a reliever before and it didn't go well then either.

Liriano was an experiment to try to gain an upgrade over Sipp. It hasn't worked out. Like I say, you at least know Sipp has the capability to be a good reliever even though it hasn't showed in a while. So the next few weeks, give him the ball and see which guy to go with.

Someone posted a few weeks back that Sipp decided to throw his fastball on the same plane as 2015 (what took so long Tony?). Maybe that could help? Time to find out.
