One good thing going on with the pen's that Grimm looks like he's got himself back on track his shit doesn't stink.

I see what you did thar. Well played. I hope Z gets more work and maybe he'll keep it up so that he can take Wood's spot in October. I know, wishful thinking, but the thought of Wood pitching in the playoffs scares the shit outta me.

Another pants shitting from Wood tonight...

You sure talk about poop a lot.

Pretty sure that one was on purpose, unless I'm giving him too much credit.

Credit has to be earned in the feral jungle Thunderdome of my mind.

This.Fucking.Bullpen. earned the thread tonight. And hey, look, no Wood or Cahill involved tonight, Maybe that's why it was a bit calmer tonight. Smith looked very impressive coming off the dl.

There was a distinct lack of fecal odor tonight.

Zastryzny is certainly going to make Joe make a hard choice in October.

I think Wood will mitigate the toughness of the choice.

Sahadev Sharma was saying on Twitter the other day that Joe absolutely loves Wood for "gamer and grit" reasons, so I'm be pretty surprised if Joe doesn't let him on the postseason roster in favor of a rookie.

Wood's fine as a LOOGY. It's using him against righties that's stupid. Zazszzsztrzzzsszzny has been more of a long reliever, so unless Jason Hammel is getting playoff starts, there's not as much need for a tandem starter/long man (especially in a five-game series).

Even Joe Smith is getting guys out since he came off the DL.

Now we know Tubby Trevor can only go 2 innings before he's weak from hunger.

To be honest I don't really even know that I blame him for the two dingers. If it were a closer game he may not have made those pitches, both of them were first pitch fastballs where he was clearly just trying to throw strikes and get the game over with and not walk anyone, which is all you really want from a long man with a 6 run lead.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

He won a WS in the USA. Maybe he was just paying it back

Has Hector put on a few pounds? Like 25?

Well, he'll never make center field with that attitude.
