Yep, and they don't have an official closer. :laff:

But apparently they didn't need Kimbrel according to their GM. :laff:

They were never seriously going to go all in & attempt a repeat.

They just resigned the playoff heroes and will try to snatch up the second wild card spot , I'd be surprised if they spun off players at the deadline. .. but then again they really dont have any chips on the level of Cle/Tam/Min/Oak/NYY or Houston In the A.L

They're kinda fukked long story short in a psuedo transition'-retooling-purgatory year.

If they think they can pull off the Yankees soft rebuild from a couple of years ago then they are sadly mistaken.

Yep, most felt like they had to choose between Kelly & Kimbrel, letting both walk let you know what time it was.

Pretty sure their mindset is if they make the playoffs, cool, if not, cool. They've got enough good grace after everything went right last year.
