If this short series has not convinced even the most die-hard fans and FO that this team will die a hard death if DD doesn't come up with 2 durable, competent relievers, then nothing will. The Sox have been fully exposed on the mound.

 

The bullpen sucks but we still have an inconsistent offense as well.

You can add barnes in there as well.
I wouldn't include Barnes with those bums, but if we keep using him so often, he will be a bag of trash by the 2nd week of August.

Why not? The guy needs like 40 pitches to get through an inning.

Ugh I’m shutting this off. f***ing pissing me off.

 

This team is broken. Can’t win big games with no pen. It’s just that simple. I think all of us need to manage our expectations going forward. If Dombrowski doesn’t want to make some moves he’s gunna see a dip in ratings.

The Yankees rotation is their weakness. What are you talking about? Their starters don’t consistently go 7. They have elite bullpen

 

They spent a ton on their pen. $80M for Chappy, 30M each for Britton and Octinvo. We spent 1.85M to sign Brewer hoping he'd turn the corner.

Offense went from 13 runs yesterday to 4 today. They still have a horrible habit of not scoring runs when the pitching is good. E Rod gave us nearly 6 innings of shut down baseball. Offense hasn’t been great but the bullpen has been much worse. Just all around crap.

Walden : 20 pitches for no outs Barnes now at 20 pitches for one out, and a pop=up that might have been caught. How long can it go ??

I think that he is already showing the signs of overuse.

 

He doesn’t help himself though by falling behind the count.

Your faith in Barnes is greatly misplaced. He is a hack
