5/10 Jerklins (Robertson) @ COBS (Lilly) 7:05 CSN

[inari]

Good at bat there. Too bad the pitchers up, but you never know with Teddy.

 

I'm not sure what that means as Ted Lilly is a horrible hitter.

MLB Network is showing the game even though it is very early...

roughly as good as our 5th hitter, however

[Guancous]

That curve to Ross was vicious.

[PrimeTime]

Somebody work a count for God sakes

[Schwarber Fan]

it's a shame that every time we get a good start, it's a "pitcher's duel".

[Keener98]

Top half of our lineup is having some fantastic at bats let me tell you

[bushwoodcc]

Why is Lee still batting 3rd? Until further notice:

 

Theriot

Fuku

Byrd

Soriano

Soto

Lee

Castro

Ramirez

P

[Keener98]

Yikes Starlin, come on

[Soul]

I thought Starlin was a decent glove.

first home game jitters

[BigSlick]

you guys ready for it all to fall apart?

 

 

ready ? here we go

[inari]

I thought Starlin was a decent glove.

 

He's young and has a tendency to make throwing errors, from what I hear.

[Sammy Sofa]

I thought Starlin was a decent glove.

 

Decent range. Not a terribly impressive arm (in terms of accuracy). He'll be much better off moving to 2nd.

I thought Starlin was a decent glove.

His "glove" is good, so far it has been the throws. He was viewed as a raw fielder who had good-plus range and a plus arm he just needs refining.

[Keener98]

Jesus Christ Lilly, come on

[inari]

I thought Starlin was a decent glove.

 

Decent range. Not a terribly impressive arm (in terms of accuracy). He'll be much better off moving to 2nd.

 

I thought he was supposed to have a terrific arm?

[haubrich91]

Wow, everything that could go wrong this inning has went wrong.

[Sammy Sofa]

Wow, everything that could go wrong this inning has went wrong.

 

Really? Everything?

 

And I know it just got Lilly a strike, but man, this ump is calling some ridiculously low strikes.

[bushwoodcc]

I thought Starlin was a decent glove.

 

 

His arm is almost too strong for his own good. Maybe he should take off all of that horrible jewerly as well. Who didn't know that the error would lead to the run. Congrats Robertson.

Not a terribly impressive arm (in terms of accuracy). He'll be much better off moving to 2nd.

 

 

But of course, you aren't really serious.

Strong, yes. Accurate, not so much.

[inari]

Are we really going to go down the route of criticizing Starlin for his jewelry?

[Sammy Sofa]

But of course, you aren't really serious.

 

I'm not? The ideal situation in the next couple of years is Castro moving to 2nd and Lee coming up at SS.

There's a difference from wearing a chain and five or six huge gold chains. Just saying.
