7/0 BB/K

 

That's turrible

[Little Slide Rooter]

Hopefully they can leave Wada and Hendricks be and put the kibosh on any Beeler/Rusin/Jokisch nonsense.

[sneakypower]

awwww yeah

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Alcantara = spark at at the top of the lineup. Ricky needs to beg Theo not to send him down. Get on your $#%#@$ knees if you have to.

I think there's a pretty good chance Wada pitches better than Wood these next three months. I like his fastball and change/forkball combo better than Wood's 85 mph cutter and questionable offspeeds.

are we sure that miley cyrus isn't actually justin beiber

It makes me sad that this might be true.

I halfway wonder if Lake or Olt get sent down instead of Alcantara when Barney comes back. Or, quite honestly, a Schierholtz DFA might make the most sense. We're beyond the point of getting anything in a trade for him and no way he comes back next year. If they're trying to trade Barney, they probably want him playing mostly everyday, but if Schierholtz is gone, AA can play center.

 

But that's probably just me hoping more than anything. Still seems a little odd to call up a good prospect for two games.

Wood's fine; 5.4 fWAR (or 6.3 using RA9) in his last 50 starts will attest

Oh good, the 1st inning strike zone is back

[Gilby]

Rizzo's great, but if Starlin would have tried to catch a forceout at 2nd base like Rizzo did at 1st, the "lazy" and "loses focus" narratives would be everywhere (well maybe not everywhere, as it's a noon weekday game and we suck, but you get the idea). Edited July 10, 2014 by Gilby

ok, so Baker can't frame for [expletive] either

[Guest]

[Hairyducked Idiot]

[Gilby]

[Hairyducked Idiot]

[Guest]

boy Wegner has just been an abject failure on all accounts in this game

[Guest]

Castillo a hero for pulling the blocking sled move on Rizzo, whoever grabbed Chapman by the collar too

[sneakypower]

man, i'd loved to have seen a Rizzo-Chapman bout

[Gilby]

Rizzo's going to intentionally Buckner a ground ball to blow Chapman's save in the AS Game
