So, a warning track fly, a single, and no K's?

 

Progress.

Vizcaino and Rivero need to stop wasting bullets in the minors.

They'd be wasting them in the majors too

Well played, sir. Well played.

Neftali probably threw him the gas he's looking for as he flails at every curve in the dirt.

With 2 steals tonight, Andreoli is 62 of 68 on stolen bases since the start of 2013.

 

Andreoli has always intrigued me. He gets on base. He hits for avg. he has speed. However, he's a career .376 SLG, but his 6'1 215lb frame suggests that there should be more power to him.

Being in his age 24 season suggests the opposite.

Forget hoping for power, but he could still be valuable as a guy off the bench. Needs to be in AAA.
