Not entirely his fault but enough of it was

The "can't throw strikes" part was, and the "groove a fastball over the center of the plate to a veteran slugger" part was.

Going to the Circle of Trust founder.

the Circle of Trust may be lonely for Ribalta, but he's not leaving.

Sending down Alvarez to send a message while bringing up Varland to take his place is some serious General managing…maybe we can send down James Wood and bring up Weimer to really get the point across

Crews swinging at anything outside off the plate.

Finally gets his lone strike and watches it into the mitt.

You'd think this was Trevor Hoffman on the mound.

to be fair, Varland pitched well at Rochester.

My prediction, walk 2, give up a run but get a double play with 2 runners on to get the save.

he was going down for Irvin or Williams. Varland is / was just up between that slot in the rotation coming up again

He's shaky mentally, like Cornelio and some others. They get rattled and lose confidence, so underperform.

Would have stayed with Ribalta and kept Beeter clean for tomorrow
