@ThePoniExpress He’s lying. You know he was pissed they yanked him. They should have let him at least start the 7th. #pirates

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@AustinRBechtold DFA Santana tonite and shame on pirates for pulling jones. Don Kelly , the puppet manager. If a guy is breezing along, pitch counts shouldn’t matter. No stressful innings. Pirates get what they deserve with worst bullpen in MLB. #firecherington #pirates

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@ThePoniExpress Poni, Skenes obviously needs to take blame, but after Gerriit Cole went to Astros, he commented the Pirates coaching were making changes to his pitching philosophy, etc. Fair question if Pirates are messing up Skenes. #pirates

23 blown leads this season. And we’re only at the halfway point. Pirates are wasting the best offense in their modern history. Way to go Ben.

[Josh Yohe @JoshYohe_PGH]

A real front office/owner would have at least attempted to fix the bullpen by now. The sad thing is, this actually could be a really good team.
What a disaster.

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@ThePoniExpress Poni, I am done with this team. Time to talk Steelers on Monday. Worst bullpen in MLB. #pirates #firecheringtontonite

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@AustinRBechtold I am sick of Don Kelly. Unless Griffin was hurting from hit by pitch last nite, you play him today. Someone that age could play a doubleheader today. Pirates need to prioritize winning. #pirates #Cheringtonsucks

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@ThePoniExpress I don’t ever remember watching a bullpen this bad , and the pirates have had their share of awful teams. This bullpen and poor fielding has ruined this season. #pirates #firecherington

[Josh Yohe @JoshYohe_PGH]

I've been busy writing about the draft. Just saw the Pirates are resting Konnor Griffin today as part of their plan.
He went deep last night in his first AB. He's 20. I get being careful with him from a long term perspective in general, but for Christ sake. It would be nice if they actually created the appearance, at least, that they are prioritizing winning and trying to make the playoffs. But they just don't and I, for one, find it infuriating.
If you want his elbow to have a day off, DH him at least. But winning games is never the goal. Following their misguided process is.

@AustinRBechtold the bullpen has ruined this season. Montgomery is trash. Worst bullpen in MLB. Thanks Ben Cherington. #pirates #cluelessGM

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@ThePoniExpress Poni, lose a series to the Rockies and potentially swept, it’s time for you to discuss Pirates Monday and then start Steeler talk. Cherington neglecting bullpen crippled this team. Why should fans care anymore? #pirates #clueless

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@AustinRBechtold Definitely not a playoff team when you lose a series to the worst team in baseball, and pirates still may get swept! Inept GM and Kelly is a puppet as manager. #pirates

[Andrew Fillipponi @ThePoniExpress]

The Pirates have 16 saves.

The Pirates have 17 blown saves.

This is the worst Pirates bullpen of our lives.

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@AustinRBechtold Nobody in the bullpen can be trusted. Cherington is a dumb ass.

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@ThePoniExpress Montgomery stinks. Nobody in this bullpen can be trusted. Cherington needs to be fired this year. #feeblebullpen #pirates

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@ThePoniExpress How many days until Steelers training camp? Stick a fork in the Pirates, they are done. #ineptbullpen #pirates

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@ThePoniExpress it’s really a shame the bullpen is so pathetic. This pirate lineup never gives up, but too much to overcome almost every game. #pirates #garbage-bullpen

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@AustinRBechtold 2nd and 3rd with no outs. Can’t blame the bullpen tonite. Pirates have fewest comeback wins in MLB. No clutch hitting.#pirates

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@AustinRBechtold I put the blame on Cherington to insert Jones in the starting rotation immediately . I doubt Kelly had much say. #dumb

[Mark Pappas @MarkHPappas]

@ThePoniExpress after no baseball for 609 days, why the Pirates felt compelled to put Jones in the starting rotation immediately was a terrible decision. #pirates #dumb
