Bullpen usage absolutely horrendous.

It worked out there, but this bullpen usage is baffling. Guy making his major league debut let's have him pitch multiple innings despite him being basically a one inning pitcher at AAA. Guy coming off several months on the DL. Let's bring him in with the bases loaded.

Watching Trevor Rogers tonite. He was one pitch away from an immaculate inning in the first versus Norfolk. 10 pitches and three strikeouts swinging. He just needs a great start to get him going
Now five swinging strikeouts through two.
Perfect through three with seven K's, all swinging. Thing is that every strike is right down the middle and belly high. Must have movement or really explosive velocity.
The perfecto is over in the fourth. A walk and a hit by pitch put runners aboard, but Trevor finished the inning with two more K's. That's nine. He also got squeezed on a couple pitches that had the zone.
Two more swinging K's in the fifth. 11 total. Pitch count will probably allow just one more inning, but Rogers has been epic.
Rogers done after six hitless. 12 K. Wish he had been able to apply this work vs Dodgers tomorrow night ... instead of Hoeing
Was REALLY happy to see this. The single biggest disappointment this season (and there were loads of disappointments, almost nothing but) has been the mysterious loss of effectiveness for Rogers. With Eder, Luzardo, Garrett all looking good, the Marlins have the best crop of lefties around. As far as RHP go, Alcantara, Lopez, Cabrera and Perez aren't bad either.
Of note: De La Cruz has been tearing it up at JAX since his demotion. Jesus Sanchez has not.Last edited by Lee Stone; 08-26-2022, 07:30 AM.
