4 years agoMiami Marlins relief pitcher John Curtiss struggled in a relief appearance during Tuesday's loss to the Philadelphia Phillies. Curtiss came in to a bases loaded situation and allowed all three inherited runners to score. He then allowed two runs of his own, on three hits and a walk, all while recording just two outs. Curtiss had been excellent most of the season, in fact the walk he issued was only his second of the season, but he very clearly didn't have good stuff in this one (but was left in to finish the inning anyway). Curtiss should continue to work in his 6th/7th inning role. He could have some holds league value if he works his way up an inning, but for now he's merely working in middle relief.--David A Marcillo - RotoBaller
