[zambonir]

I personally never had this one down as a win, for pretty much all the reasons it's not looking like one.

[Patchmk88]

Well I think that is the season folks. Bullpen costs us the playoffs this year. Watching a game against a team like the Devil Rays just shoes you how far behind our organization is. Pretty sad to be honest.

[Patchmk88]

I’m afraid it will be a long time before we sniff the postseason again.
