Shaky bullpen? Don't think so. They did pretty good in that series.

Why would he walk out to the mound in the 8th inning? Did he really think he was going to get an objective assessment from Pedro?

He abdicated his responsibility as a manager. He should have been fired.

Oh they had a string of good innings in the postseason, which was overdue to come to an end, but throughout the year they struggled mightily at times. When a team has to change its closer once or twice in the season, you know the bullpen isn't very strong.

LOL.

Grady: Whaddya think Pedro? Can you go on?

Pedro: No boss. Right now I'm feeling small and alone. I think I'd just like to go back to the dugout and have a good cry.
