I turn on the game it’s 2-1 Royals in the top of the 6th.
Half an inning later and we’re down 4. This entire bullpen needs to be fired into the sun, save Zerpa. Everyone else can just go. Just a ****ing abortion of a pen. All that said, Singer is a 5 year veteran now. He needs to put on his big boy pants and give us more then 5 innings (which is pretty much what he does every start) Will be glad for him to be gone next year as his repeated short starts put the bullpen at risk by exposing them more. I want guys that can go 7 when the game calls for it and have the intelligence to pitch accordingly so they don’t burn them selves out in 5. Bullpen blew this, but Singer set them up to fail. We KNOW what our bullpen is at this point. |

I’m not absolving other people, but Singer has been doing this shit for a while. He’s a vet with a 3 pitch mix, but he doesn’t ever wanna use his third pitch so he burns himself out on two pitches most of the game. He’s a vet that pitches like a rookie. Not smart. I’d almost rather him be in the bullpen at this point. He’d make a great middle relief bullpen arm and stretch are depth out quite a bit. As a starter, he doesn’t do what a starter needs to do. Did you know he’s only gone more than six innings ONE time the entire year? His opening start against Minny in March. So he can do it. He just doesn’t want to (doesn’t pitch smart enough to) |

Singer is another in a long line of mentally fragile pitchers the Royals have drafted.
Has the talent to be a #1 but is a #5 or possibly bullpen guy. |

Gotta have a bullpen in 2024 or it's gonna be a bumpy ride.

Yeah. But I mean, we knew this wasn’t a 34-19 team. You don’t go from losing over a 100 games to winning at a .640 clip. That’s not a reasonable expectation.
I thought from the beg. this was going to hopefully be a .500 team this year, but looking at the lack of depth in this lineup, the atrocity that is this bullpen and the lack of starters that can throw 7 innings, I’m not even sure .500 is realistic for this team. They’re sinking, and sinking fast. |

BTW I just caught Q after the game. He said Schreiber has been good, and it's too bad that the ground balls aren't getting hit at someone. **** off, Schreiber is shit and simply can't get strike outs.

We knew a good chunk of this month would be ugly. We have a chance to fix things, but not off to a great start.
