Touki and folty are hopeless. Newcomb is the only one that has hope, but he can't throw strikes

I’ve not given up on Toussaint.

Foltynewicz is pretty clearly injured.

What’s Newcomb’s excuse?

Yeah, I'd put everyone including potentially some position players head of Newk as a pitcher. First guy I've seen since post-injury Wohlers who can aim for home plate and throw the ball over the centerfield fence when he misses.

Newcomb is @$$ without that change up working...His fastball isn’t good enough to allow him to get away with two primary pitches....his fastball is as flat as snake’s nuts...I’m with CyYoung on this one...I have zero confidence in him either.

Dream a dream on touki. I'm not telling you shouldn't.

What's folty's injury? Why are we pitching him hurt?

Newcomb has no excuse. What makes you think I'm giving him one?
 
Chipstick discussing a catcher's glove moving too much for the ump to call a strike a strike immediately brought back Brayan Pena nightmares. Never seen anyone who could turn so many strikes into balls.
 
I like Touki but we’d be in this had Snit used major league relievers. Weird flex leaving Touki in and essentially wasting a start.

Wrong, as usual. Newk’s fastball gets plenty of rise to be effective.

It’s amazing how quickly everyone goes into bitch mode after a 14-1 win
