Holland is probably still a decent 8th inning guy though. we just have to have the balls to shift stuff around.

where's the guy that says he only sucks in non-save situs?  was that mocat?

Do we want to win a world series? If yes. We can't keep Holland as our closer.

that chicago pinch runner sure liked to laugh it up a lot for someone who didn't even try to steal.

Posse stat of the night...

Volquez -- 1) 2.28 ERA last 7 starts. 2) With RISP he is now allowing a .200 Slug%.  Not Batting Ave, no Slug%
That's insanely good.

I love cueto and volqy. you know what you're getting. that's why I loved james. duffy is so up and down it terrifies me. same with ventura. they could each throw a no hitter and it wouldn't shock me but they could also each get run out of a game leaving us down 8 after 2 innings. GOING TO BE EXCITING THO!  :Woot:

What you do is, you continue to rest that eight footer that we have and then if yordano doesn't get his crap together you throw the rested eight footer in the playoffs.

dick duffy is fine.  he was INJURED early in the year.  for some reason, people like to run around acting like he's some headcase.  he's been fine except for the time when his body was malfunctioning.

even the rough ridin' royals announcers interviewed him and were like - you've had a good run since you got back, dick duffy, did you just need a reset?  and dick duffy looked at them like they were rough ridin' morons and was like - well i needed to get healthy, if you wanna call that a reset, then whatever.


i mean he's not a dominant pitcher.  he's gonna give up some hits, give up runs.  but he's going out and giving you decent opportunities to win.  consistently.

oh, and then dick duffy walked off and the dumbass royals announcers looked at the camera and were like - there you have it, dick duffy had a chance to go get his head cleared on rehab down in triple a, and he's been pitching great ever since.


i hate our announcers so much.
