This is our bullpen. Who is he supposed to throw out there?
Kennedy 1.13
Boxberger 9.72
Diekman 3.86
Peralta 7.71
Barlow 2.57
Sparkman 7.36
Lovelady 16.20
Newberry 9.00
That's on Dayton, not Ned. This doesn't even include Hill (9.00), Zimmer (9.00) and McCarthy (19.64). 8 of the 12 pitchers who have been in the bullpen have ERAs above 7. You aren't going to have any kind of sustained success relying on about two guys.

Don't get me started on Zimmer. Yeah he has a 9 ERA, but he only had 3 appearances and 2 of those he didn't allow a run, then they send him down for control problems, but wtf did they expect when he was hardly getting to pitch. They ****ed him over.
