We are in first place and a top team in baseball but the back end of the rotation and bullpen continue to hurt the team. I wish we had better pitching depth in the minors. Beachy is not the answer. I wish our drafted players would actually be given a shot for once. Instead of scrub pitchers, it would be nice to have our home grown pitchers step up. I have no idea why Lee hasn't been called up yet. How much more time do they want to give the kid?
The pen needs to get stable as well. Libertore and Peralta now have ERAs over 4.0. Not sure why this organization can't get the bullpen addressed. Its better than it was last year, but I can see the pen failing us again in the playoffs. Jensen's struggles aren't good either. Just not sure whats going on with our pitching right now. Kershaw and Greinke are outstanding, Anderson has been fine and Bolsinger has been a surprise for the most part. The 5th starter and pen are letting us down big time.
