[Patchmk88]

What are the numbers against Neris vs other NL East teams. The eye test tells me that he’s probably better against non NL East teams. The NL East guys seem to have no trouble with his sinker.

[LoneStarPhan]

Blow 5 run lead.
Blow 4 run lead.
Blow one run lead.

Yea, not a good day for the bullpen.
