Yet again today he gave up hard contact on an elevated fastball. He should be in the minors learning to pitch. This is going to become a self-fulfilling prophecy whereby we force him into the pen by failing keep him stretched out this year and not giving him a chance to develop his secondary offerings. I hate how we're handling Rosenthal. I just absolutely hate it.

Still looking to move heaven and earth to put Rosenthal in at closer?
Comes in with men on 2nd and third, hits a guy and then walks the run in. Yeah - this is definitely a guy we should be letting 'learn on the job'. Send the damn kid to Memphis already.

Why the hell didn't they bring out Westbrook for the 7th? He was at 91 ****ing pitches.

Poor defensive play on a tough ball costs us a DP and a run.

There's something to be said for giving Kelly a clean inning to work with. Kelly had the bottom of the lineup and nobody on to contend with - he just kicked it. This one's on the players.

He had the time to look that ball in and get it over to Kozma but he got way too hurried and turned before he caught it. Just a little to anxious from a normally steady defender there in Descalso.

Sadly, not having Mujica in the 7th is what allowed that to get out of hand.

And with the 2013 St. Louis Cardinals, we have yet another example. Great bullpens need a dominant closer and everyone else needs to know they're role. BPBC simply does not work because guys like Boggs start to flip out in the 9th, Rosenthal comes in overthrowing in the 7th, etc... Give them their roles, leave them in them.

Oh my God. How do you get frozen on that pitch, Holliday?
