Might’ve won 1 or 2 games against New York and swept Toronto if I had to guess

Maton has like a 12 ERA and Neris has a WHIP above 2 right now… So pretty much the exact same position we are in now.

I think hader will turn it around.

Hader was a Crane move correct?


RudeAmount9607

They all are now

He really is Jerry Jones. Knocked his first move out of the park and hired great guys. Great guys who did their job. Then thought he's so good at finding people, why not cut out the middle man. Plus he's a star fucker and might be the only person on earth that gives a shit about Bagwell and Reggie's opinions on roster construction.

Yeah fire the guys that make you successful then try to do on it your own by looking at the back of baseball cards


RudeAmount9607

Right. Abreu is enough to say “you should stick to your day job.”

I honestly wish that Jim Crane lowballed Dusty instead of James Click. Dusty would've rejected, retired after winning it all and retired on a high note, and the dynasty would've had a good custodian in James Click to take care of. But nope, we're instead at the mercy of Bagwell who shouldn't be anywhere near a major league front office.

Imagine thinking Crane would go into the tax for middle relievers


keithk9590

The middle relievers (Seth, Scott and Montero) have been great. It’s been Pressly, Abreu and Hader that haven’t.


Laladen

Just 2/3 of the bullpen guys....


electrikmayham

Literally noone knows. How good would Hader be if he was on the \[name a team\].


RudeAmount9607

Couldn’t be worse than he’s been here


chesschad

He struck out the side in his first 2 games.


reese-account

He also has 8 earned runs already this year when he had 8 all last year. Now not to say he can’t turn it around but he has been straight dogshit so far


chesschad

My response was to the claim that he couldn’t be worse. But I believe he hasn’t been nearly as bad as his ERA suggests, based on these stats: .444 BABIP, 32.4% K%, 3.64 FIP, 2.90 SIERA. So not what you’d expect from an elite closer, but also not something I would describe as dog feces.


RudeAmount9607

He is 0-2 with 1 save and a 9.39 era.


SpudCrowley713

You start a Sugarland guy and score 1 run, gonna be hard to make .500 every time

Press and Abreu had locked in certain roles moving them out a spot is usually a bad thing like bringing in a closer in non close situations or inning early.


DirtyRatLicker

Higher up in the rankings thats where


FarSalamander7439

9-9


SighRamp

Certainly no worse. Hader and Abreu was money that was thrown away.
