If you had followed the game Friday night and our bullpen this year you

would understand...bullpen has blown numerous leads by tossing 90+ octane on fires and Friday night we gave up a 5 spot in the 8th after leading 5-4, losing 9-7. Yesterday Renfro pitched his butt off and the first two guys in, Grimm and Lazaro, dont get an out and load the bases (2 walks, HBP, and a hit) while not throwing strikes...Swift shut the door and his change-up is awesome...but the angst you read was warranted and we were FAR from perfection...

What if we’d had Swift to use late in game 3?? It matters **

Sure - but lets put the dang bunt down in fair territory and WIN in the 9th**

Yeah. I knew when he came in we’d be ok but the problem is he shouldn’t
