I'd move Davis to the pen to solidify things a bit. I'd identify my LOOGY (probably Will Smith), and stick to using him as that. I'd DFA JC Gutierrez and Call up Louis Coleman. Collins goes down to work on FB command.

Roles:

CLoser: Holland
Clean inning: (Used in medium or long relief at start of innings) Chen, Hochevar
LOOGY: Will Smith
ROOGY: Louis Coleman
8th inning options: Crow, Davis

We really need Herrera to get his act together. Our bullpen fell apart when he got sent down. (not that I disagree with sending hom down, we just need another arm desperately)

Why do people want to DFA Gutierrez. He has been pretty damn good.

as soon as we are completely out of it several players will start playing better

Because I think he isn't that good and doesn't have a long-term future in KC. I didn't realize he hasn't allowed an earned run since June 2.

It's probably time to use him in some higher leverage situations, then. Considering the rest of the pen's performance.

He's not a Royal's fan then. If he actually watched the game, and look at the stats, he would know that batting Escobar at 2nd is not recommended, and that Yost had to pull Hoch for Collins.

The author can go fist himself.

Had a couple "let him back" votes via rep but it was overwhelmingly against. He's gone. Enjoy.

Because people don't want to call Crow a turd even though he is one

Two questions:
1) Were patteeu and SaulGood the whiteknights?
2) Did pos or neg rep win?
