in a bullpen full of worthless players, Jimenez is truly the crown jewel.

You know the bullpen is bad when they can't even keep that dude in the park.

Lol. I think Justyn Henry-Malloy would help this team more than Joe Jimenez right now.

For as bad as we thought the Jimenez trade was when it happened... turns out it was actually worse than we thought.




Yeah, no kidding. Malloy has been raking, and Jimenez is... on the team.

Can't be that mad with these last two series considering we won against two divisional rivals, but it's annoying as hell that both losses in these 7 games have been directly due to a shite bullpen.

It's going to take more than a healthy Iglesias to fix it too.

I wouldn't be shocked if a phantom DL stint for Minter accompanied Iglesias's return.

Yeah, it's not about just this game, it's that the bullpen has blown leads in I think 5 of the last 10 games now, after they lost the entire Astros series.

Unless something is actually wrong with him physically, I don't see how we can afford to willingly take out a struggling talent when we have too many talentless hacks already up.

Time to send Hilliard down.

We’re damn near undefeated with a marginally serviceable bullpen.

Typical Braves. Leadoff man at second base, and he never moves. All or nothing, all the time.

I think he's out of options. Big reason why he made the team out of spring training in the first place.

To be fair, you're not looking to move runners over when you're down 2 in the 9th.

Even when healthy, we had way too many AAA players on this team.

In our last 5 losses, we've had a lead in the 6th inning or later in all of them.

That's inexcusable. And it's not like in the wins, our pen is shutting down the other team either.

I agree, but I also think he's about third in line to get DFA'd. I think the Ozuna experiment is in its last days, and right now, I also think they'd DFA Adrianza before Hilliard.
