| He's . . . in there? |
First of all, I don't even feel like it is fair to say that a bullpen "blew" a game by not holding onto a 1-0 game; that is simply not how I feel about that situation (guys, guys, guys: one run? why is Vladdy Jr. the only guy hitting bombs tonight? why would we even pluralize it given the paucity of bombs?). But even if we were to say that the bullpen blew this one, it would be indefensible to be upset by our league-best bullpen having one night which did not go as well as hoped, such that there were all of these walks and then several doubles. And so I am sanguine, in no small part because Matz had a good start. I do worry a little, though, about how all of the remaining games in Dunedin (before the Blue Jays "shuffle off to Buffalo," haha!) are against good teams. The Blue Jays schedule has been unusually tough to this point, but that can only mean lots of Baltimore and Detroit soon, and, one hopes, indefinitely.
