Love hate relationship with Coop, but have to give him his due for fixing Tommy Kahnle. Nobody wants to step in against this guy right now. Add Swarzak, Jones, and Zach Burdi at Charlotte and it's one of the deepest pens in MLB. Question is how much of it do you keep?

Loathe to give anyone credit for a bullpen pitching well. It's such a crapshoot.

These guys could (and probably will) shit themselves for the next month.

Matt Albers had a zero ERA too. Maybe one will finish the season a major league caliber pitcher.

Kahnle throws 97-99 and now he's doing it with command. He's no Matt Albers.

My guess is Kieboom and Severino.

The catcher(severino) grades out to be average if best case scenario.

Where are you seeing this?

It might be addition by subtraction honestly.

Seriously? Except for one game (which the Sox won), Robertson has been terrific this year. I get that you move veterans if and when the right deal comes along, but to suggest that this bullpen right now would be better without Robertson is flat out wrong and way off base.

Addition by subtraction would be getting rid of Asche or Covey.
