This is malpractice to keep running these three scumbags(Lopez, Ferrer, Sims) out there

I take the starters' ERA with some grains of salt knowing they tend to get pushed too far to cover for the bullpen.

Lopez and Sims are each signed for $3 million this year.   No other reason they're still on the team.  Rizzo's just going to have take the lashing from Mini Me for paying these guys.

Soroka sucks, too.   Guy can’t get an out in the fifth?

Is there a better term for a pitcher who replaces another and makes things worse than "relief"?

Do we lead the league in runs allowed via wild pitches?

Remarkable that with a limited budget, Rizzo dropped $7.4 million on Poche, Sims, and Lopez, not to mention $9 million on Soroka.

Perhaps not coincidentally, Ruiz and Adams are two of the worst catchers in the league at blocking pitches (and Adams is dead last, per Statcast, by a wide margin on a rate basis).

Carelessness all around.  Plunking batters, wild pitches, walks everywhere, throwing 25+ pitches an inning.  But let's keep brining back Rizzo, Davey, and all the coaches.

funny they attack a power hitter like Wood inside because they are more worried about him going oppo.
