    In last night's game, over the final 3 innings, the Yankees bullpen chalked up the following stats:

    Wins 1
    Holds 1
    Saves 1
    Blown Saves 2


    It's no wonder some of these team relief stats are a little hard to decipher.
    Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1

    The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.

    Yep, Twins relievers racked up a Loss, a Hold, and 2 Blown Saves.

    I just read that the Sox have the 4th best save % in the month of July.

    Can we remember one thing?

    Today's SP: 1.2 IP 3 ER (8 H+BB)

    Today's pen: 8.1 IP 2 ER (8H + BB)

    I'm tired of these loses being blamed on the pen.

    When you say it's gonna happen now
    When exactly do you mean?

    The bullpen stinks. I am glad that it makes you happy that the starters stink too. Cashner can be thrown in the Dumpster on October 1st or sooner imo. Porcello should be given a cake and a big goodbye card. He has had 3 atrocious seasons, 1 meh season and 1 stellar season. I don't expect that he will improve. For $22.5 million/yr, DD can do better.

    Don't be a dick.

    I'm pissed at hell about the starters and the pen.

    Our team sucks. There's nothing to be "happy" about.

    I guess I should begin to think like you and wonder, if you find joy in the pen blowing another save, since it make you look right. Only a warped mind would think like this.

    (I'm not sure what Porcello has to do with any of this. He's a starter, and he sucks.)

    I didn't see that anyone was blaming the pen for today's loss. Cashener got booed off the mound. I thought your post was dick-ish.

    Yeah, we agree on that. I never said anything different about him.
