Greetings all, I'm stepping in for Mr. Pants today throwing on short rest. I went and got loose in the pen and now I'm ready to get poppin'. It's been a long week so rather than beat around the bush, let's just dive right into what I saw around the MLB on Friday night:
Ryan Weber - 3 inn 7 baserunners 2 ER 3 Ks. He's bad and so is their bullpen.
Brandon Workman - 1 inn 0 ER and SV. Okay except for him, he's the only bright spot in that radioactive wasteland.
Andrew Benintendi - 0-4 with BB, 1 run, and the golden sombrero as he continues to bat leadoff hitting .061/.279. I've noticed he's walking a lot yet his contact is atrocious. His eyes are fine, but his swing is way off. I have no idea why Roenicke is keeping him at leadoff. Could be to ensure he has more ABs to help him out of his funk and/or further evidence the Sawx are mailing in this entire season. Just one big extended Spring Training.
