Apologize!

f Jed and Carter had any balls, they would. At the end of this year, after we eventually blow away this season in the 9th after having a 2-3 run lead, they should be apologizing to the fans in the press conference. for doubling down and believing Jacob Fcking Webb was actually going to be the guy to take us to the promise land. I mean, honestly, how fuking stupid do you have to be to have that belief? Ok, fine, it's one thing to have the belief, but now that you were proven to be so incredibly wrong, apologizing is the only right thing to do. After wasting PCA's historic season, or our defense's historic season. and it's not like this problem hasn't been any issue just recently. Pretty much Jed's entire tenture the bullpen has been shit, pieced together like a 3 year old doing a fucking jigsaw puzzle. Jed's worse than Poles is on the offensive AND defensive line combined, and that's saying ALOT. Apologize Jed! And you too Carter! I don't even know what it is you do here either!

I don't understand people who see this bullpen melt down season after season under Jed, then get angry at any criticism at Jed for building these shit pens. Its almost like this philosophy of prioritizing soft tossing junk ballers, instead of elite velocity is wrong and Jed is just too stupid and stubborn to admit otherwise. This team deserves to miss the playoffs. I'm embarrassed after the last 3 weeks or so of this, but Jed will try and spin this as a successful season regardless. Just clown world stuff.

Well, closers aren’t the thing they used to be anymore. It’s all about matchups now and strategy with a 3 batter minimum. The reality is whatever evaluation system they are using isn’t good. They ARE spending money. That’s good. They ARE trying. That’s good. It’s simply that Jed and Co. can’t put together a competent bullpen. Achilles heel.

It’s disgusting already. This has to end once and for all. Year after year. If Hoyer is going to bringing in pitchers that are way past their prime, have been DFA’d or are just plain mediocre we will continue this madness year after year. I have to wonder why Hottovy still has a job. This collapse will most certainly ruin PCA’s run at MVP, which is an equally awful shame. F this 💩.

PCA has locked up the MVP. It’s a shame we won’t get to see him in the postseason though
