99% of us said in our heads pull him after he walked in a run.
I don't even care that he left him in.. act like a major league pitcher. His stuff has stunk since last year.. he's just a damn novelty nowadays..and this is a guy who wanted the closer role so he could get paid. Psshhh

Archie has pitched better than he is now but he has never lived up to the hype.

I hope Torey and Butcher figure it out soon what to do with the guy.. we need him as a situational guy now. Imo Like Chaffin. As much as I detest when either of them come in, Archie needs a small role like him. He has no where near the command needed for a setup man...or closer for that sake

I am beyond shocked that Torey didn't have Yoan Lopez (who has been lights out) or even Holland ready to go when Archie clearly showed he didn't have it.

#ShaveTheBeard

It's not the beard...it's a pitcher who cannot jeep hitters off balance so they have the advantage. Fans elevated the myth of Archie and the organization seems to but into the nonsense. Archie is, by far, the most overrated Dback.

I can’t help but say this again and again....

WHY????

WHY put Bradley in - even a 4 run lead is no longer a safe buffer.

OMG....WHY????

Seriously guys, is there something in these players’ contracts that forces the manager to play them a certain amount of time or in certain or so-many situations?

I can’t for the life of me understand why they continue to put Bradley in as a relief pitcher when 75% (rough estimate) of the time, he BLOWS THE LEAD!!!????

WHY?????

The most horrible part was the at bat before Brenly said Archie doesn't have his stuff today. You know Torey knew the same since he sees him everyday.....and still leaves him in to face a hitter who has hit a grand slam against him.

That’s the joke. Shave the beard = cut Bradley
