Yeah, Shoemaker is way too inconsistent to be first out of the pen…

I get wanting to go to a lefty to give a different look but he just hasn’t had it in ACC play. The only problem is almost all the rest of our bullpen has been inconsistent as well so not too many quality alternative options.

Season on the line BP sucks knowing it's his ball

He couldn’t go 5-10 more trying to get out of inning?**

Def could've and if he didn't same result**

So? If a pitcher is going to get stretched to 100-105 pitches
NOVAbasebllfan 04/27/24 04:01 PM ET
Throw a pitcher too many pitches,,,

There’s more wrong with VT’s pitching recruiting than too many pitches**
