Storen wins this hands down. ALR and Espi a distant second and third.

I believe in Drewwwww

the guy who blew the biggest game in the team's history? I hope he can get it together and have a decent career, but I'd prefer it not be here

He didn't blow it by himself, you know. The whole team imploded. And I still blame the umpires for not calling those strikes.

I still blame suzuki for the worst framing I've ever seen (and I'm glad he's gone)

Drew needs to throw strikes. He didn't.  If he can get his head on straight he can bounce back. But if he honestly believes he didn't f that game up, then I don't expect him to change. Laroche seems to produce better in walk years, so he may do better. Espi will such as long as he believes he can hit left handed.

From Storen's return on august 16th through the end of the season:

20 games
1-0, 9 holds, 1 save
18.1 IP
14 hits allowed
6 BB
14 Ks
1.47 ERA
1.041 WHIP
64% of pithes for strikes
Batters hit .209 against him with a .224 slugging percentage.  BAbip was .264

Does that not count as a bounce-back?

18.1 IP seems a little premature to call it anything

Espi will such as long as he believes he can hit left right handed pitching

He will never hit righthanded pitching, whether he bats left or right.  He is destined to be a platoon player.

And Werth should have been called out on strikes in Game 4.
