Maybe try Granillo as the closer, worth a shot.

Pitch to Goodman?

For Christ sake I could manage this team better.
I’m sure some of the goofballs here will rationalize this for you…..

It's his first blown save!

It wasn’t just JoJo today. Every pitcher was hit today. Like they have been.

McGreevy gave up 7 hits, struck out 2 in 6 innings and gave up 3 runs. That’s solid against the Cubs or Dodgers. It’s not good against a terrible team like the Rockies. Then Leahy gave up a run. O’Brien was the only one unscathed, but was probably hit as hard as anyone. And JoJo gave up the 2 run HR.

6 runs over the last 6 innings.

And credit the Rockies, they don’t give up. I saw them come back from down 9-0 to the Pirates. Despite their record, they’ve been playing with heart.

Won't be his last. They need another option.

Losing 4 of 6 to a historically inept Rockies team proves how far we’ve fallen as an organization.

One option is run a promotion of fan voting on whether they’d prefer BDW, Mo, or Marmol to close out the game.

Tbf, he hits RHP’s better than LHP’s.
Stats I found say he has a slightly higher OPS against lefties in his career.

Lose two out of three against the second worst team in baseball at home. Hope they can talk Mo to come back , keep Oli and the same lineup. Good Lord
