Refsynder with his 5th tater of the season. Sanchez with his 7th tater of the season. Potts with his 6th tater of the season.

Our bullpen blew an 8 to 2 lead against the orioles! Pitiful!
-
And that is the rub for Hang’em Chaim. How to be competitive while needing to rebuild a decimated farm system! 2020 was a total reset. I get it. 2021, we were two wins from the World Series. That was the very rare circumstance where everything falls our way! Probably not going to happen that way again! 2022 hang’em Chaim did all but one thing correctly when it comes to roster building. And that one thing he bungled has killed us. He did not get a closer. 11 blown saves (and counting)is the anchor killing us thus far this season. Meanwhile, our farm system is a bit of a donut. Some very high ceiling prospects in Worcester and Salem. Much less overall talent in Greenville and Portland. He needs more time and a couple more drafts to get this fixed!

Barnes is pitiful. He must be sent to the dl for a few months in order to get his act together. This is embarrassing. 4 walks. Putrid!
-
Bogey and devers are franchise cornerstones. You do what you need to do to keep them. You use your minor league system to bring in young (future) promising players around then and fill the rest of the roster with short term free agents. Aka ….. the Atlanta blue print.

The bullpen has blown 11 saves in 19 attempts, I think. And yet Cora keeps trotting Robles out there in the 9th inning. Cora must have the highest threshold for inflicting pain on a fan base of any manager ever!
-
Do we have two reliable arms to replace sawamura snd robles in Worcester or do we need to go outside the organization?
-
Davis of Greenville with the only tater of the night, his 6th of the season. Walter threw a spectacular game. Only gave up 1 hit over 7 innings striking out 8. The one hit was a meatball he served up! Keep walter away from Hartford and he is absolutely incredible! If he keeps this up, he will need a ticket to Worcester!
-
Fitzgerald with his 10th tater of the season,
-
Sikes with his 2nd tater of the night snd 3rd of the season.
-
Dalton with his third tater of the season. Castellaneous with his 6th tater of the season.
-
Sikes with his 2nd tater of the season.
-
Hickey with his 4th tater of the season.
-
Wong with his 1st tater of the season. Refsynder with his 4th tater of the season, Hernandez with his 2nd tater of the season. Stewart with his 6th tater of the season.
-
Miller with his 6th tater of the season. Go war eagle.
-
Rafeala and lugo are having fine years. Blaze Jordan is on fire in may, can he keep it going?
-
Despite everything, we have more everyday player talent in the system than we have had in quite a few years. And a couple have huge ceilings. Hang’em Chaim has two types of position players that seem to get his attention: 1.) hit tool players. High contact rates. 2.) big power guys. Low to medium contact rates. Based on this, Jett Williams should be very appealing to Hang’em Chaim in this upcoming draft!
-
Miller with his 5th tater of the season. Go war eagle!
-
I get picking Mayer and sticking to your draft board and taking yorke. Those were both no brainers. But what was Hang’em Chaim doing in the second and third rounds of the last two drafts?
-
Would we get competitive balance draft pick if/when bogey or devers leave?
-
At the end of the day, we keep rolling out guys with substandard stuff in the 9th inning and expect superior results! Not going to happen with the current cast of characters Cora is using. Houck with his wipe out slider could be the answer. He should be able to easily do the three or four out save.
-
Why isn’t Hang’em Chaim investing in pitching early in drafts? There is very little quality starting pitching in Greenville and Salem!
-
Binelas with his 10th tater of the season.

Bullpen blows it again Today,

Maybe with a real spring training, our hitters would not have stumbled out the gate.
