Everybody on Twitter has been drooling over Evan Phillips as a Bullpen piece we should call up...anyone know anything about him??

This is the first time I've heard his name. Numbers in Gwinnett look good though.

37 strikeouts to 10 walks in 25 innings. 1.42 ERA, no homers allowed.

Ha!! Another great comeback win. LOL at you guys the past few pages. In all fairness I was saying the same things but wasn't online, so there is no record of my negative-meltdown.

Fuck the Mets.

I get a little riled up in the heat of the moment.

It's nice to really care about the outcome of the games and not be searching for moral victories anymore though.

 

[Chewbaccer]

I think the guys on the radio had a good idea today. You know how Mariano Rivera had Enter Sandman and Ricky Vaughn had Wild Thing.

Make Dan Winkler the closer, and have AYYY coming through the speakers right before this plays:

 

[Chewbaccer]

Hopefully Julio can get back on track tonight and we can win this in less dramatic fashion.

Leadoff walk....

 

[Chewbaccer]

Leadoff walk.

 

[Chewbaccer]

A leadoff walk and a bullet to the warning track. Not a good start.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Are we seriously gonna let Jose Bautista get on base everytime??

 

[Chewbaccer]

Another walk. To fucking Bautista. Come on man.

If nothing else, at least Wisler did save the bullpen last night.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Seriously, we need to get rid of Chuck Hernandez

 

[Chewbaccer]

2 walks and 2 hard hit deep flyouts.

We need to pay whatever it takes to get the Astros pitching coach over here.

Have you seen what Charlie fucking Morton has turned into over there?

The Astros gotta be cheating or something. Im convinced of it.

 

[Chewbaccer]

There is no way your location is this off. Stop nibbling.

What, you think Justin Verlander who had already had a HOF career pitching the best he ever has in his mid 30's, Gerrit Cole going to a tougher league to pitch in and going from decent to nearly unhittable and Charlie Morton finding 5 MPH on his fastball at age 34 is suspicious?

 

[Chewbaccer]

Let's tee off on this guy. He's had a terrible season and we've already beat up on him once this year.

They are using some substance that no one else knows of. Their pitches have so much spin and movement on them.

Cole and Verlander's spin rates have increased dramatically, and Morton found 5 MPH on his fastball.

Ken Giles must really suck.

The pitcher gets a hit...LOL
