He wasn't catching that. He took a bad route but it would have been over his head anyway

Chas could have

What's with all the '86 NLCS talk during this series?  Too soon.

Maybe.  Savant had it at a .280 xBA.

[Scraps 13461]

About to see alot of Seth Martinez jfc

not even close

He done 

[Scraps 13461]

I give that performance 0.0 stars

[David Dennison 17660]

Two and a third.

Wow.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Welp, that’s what happens when you throw almost as many balls as strikes.

[David Dennison 17660]

Also, since we're bitching, our outfield looks crappy.

Yeah.  Seems like Tucker could have at least made it close on Vogelfat there.  He kind of lollygagged over getting to the ball.

Megill seems to be fine lol

No reason to swap it out...got concerts coming bro!

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Megill seems to be fine lol

He’s only walked 3. We’ve doubled that so far with 6.

This, for some reason feels like a momentum swinging game for the rest of the season.

You were saying

[TonyTexas 10378]

What an embarrassment of a game for all concerned. 10 BB, 2 WP, an interference, questionable defense. Thru 3 innings.

Julks !!!!

[Mo Horn 8680]

That's why dusty writes his name in the lineup

First to 10 runs will win today 

[Scraps 13461]

I picked a bad game to drink double rum and cokes.

[David Dennison 17660]

Good lord.

[David Dennison 17660]

Nice pitch, Phil.

[Scraps 13461]

Vogelfat is eatin as the kids would say

[Guadaloopy 10757]

Coming up on two hours in and we aren't through 4 innings.  

[Hank Chinaski 6305]

@Wulaw Horn and his handsome co-host discussed concern for Javier in this week’s podcast. Those guys are pretty smart.

[David Dennison 17660]

So much for speeding up the game.

[HtownHorn 14285]

I hope Altuve is just still taking it easy with his oblique because an average MLB 2B should have made that play to start the 4th.

[Guadaloopy 10757]

Mo Doubles

If Julks starts walking he can become a decent starter, just not in the OF. He needs to move to 1B. A 20-20 1B would be good for the offense.

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1548]

Julks is an above average player, nice series so far. 

Martinez and Montero should not pitch again this season, unless we losing in a blowout.

Was this Dubon's first start at 1b?

[HtownHorn 14285]

8x15 since McCann corrected his setup.

[tx 3 putt 74769]

Diaz !!!!!

[Mo Horn 8680]

Diaz

[tx 3 putt 74769]

Young guys showing up today 

[Scraps 13461]

So many numbers.

Yes, this is the 1st time Dubon has played 1B since he entered professional baseball.

[Guadaloopy 10757]

This Diaz kid is alright.  DFA MALDY

Well it is the longest day of the year

[David Dennison 17660]

Just make sure he's somewhere in the lineup every day.

Yesterday, Have to see if Lee can hit enough to be a catcher at the MLB level. There really is no point for Maldonado to be on this roster after the trade deadline.

Last night time of game: 2:11

today time of game (thru 4): 2:05
