Bloom should be embarrassed by this bullpen he has put together

[Web7]

These guys would not be on any other major league roster …. I mean they are calling this a rebuild… What in the heck are they building around?

Embarrassment is something this organization no longer worries about.

[2forDiving]

It says a ton about the state of the organization the last 3 or 4 years under Mo and the absolute refusal for ownership to address the gaping holes and breakdown of the franchise. I just don’t see a return to the glory days any time soon. Not under DeWitt III at least.

Walker’s batting practice championship.

In case you haven’t noticed, they are pimping it in between every inning.

It’s also BAZAAR

I told everybody all winter that this was not a rebuild…… This is nothing more than a salary dump before the lockout….. I guess we’ll see what they do after the lockout

[Strummer Jones]

This bullpen is making me rethink my position on Bloom.

Bullpens are fickle...but also easy to fix. All this pitching depth that they talk about but nobody they can call up to pitch one scoreless inning?

Even if you're going to sit out competing (yet again), ALWAYS have bullpen depth. If you surprise, you got guys to help you stay that way. If you suck, you trade those guys for more prospects. While they help you win what you can win.

This is the worst bullpen I have seen in the last 26 years. I know it is a rebuilding year but what is the plan for next year

Theyve already said no spending in 2027. And ill bet they want "to see how the prospects have developed" in 2028.
In other words, Billy ain't spending anytime soon.

When it collapses like clockwork every July, it is the manager and not the front office at fault.

Take a wild guess.

[Melville]

The bullpen Bloom assembled was part of the roster when the team reached +9 games, and in a few minutes the same team will be -3 for the year.
That is 100% on The Marmot
The roster has improved talent this year
But the same deficient manager.

So is Oli supposed to resign to save the owners and POBO from themselves?

For once , I agree with Melville

[Cardinals1964]

Gastelum is not ready.
The guy with the funny name Strileckei
Or what ever was just cut by someone and makes the team.

Well a bad bullpen and manager is a bad bad combination
