“Plop, plop, fizz, fizz…” – Alka-Seltzer commercial, 1976
If I started with an actual song based on yesterday’s bullpen implosion, I probably would have chosen “Same Old Song and Dance” by Aerosmith. You’re not alone if you watched Sunday’s game and felt like it was 2023 or 2024. This has to be some kind of curse. Eli Morgan gave up six earned runs in less than one inning to the Diamondbacks after allowing nine all last year with the Guardians. Nate Pearson and Caleb Thielbar weren’t much better.
