I really liked overall how Chatwood looked today too, a ton more command/control. Process over results thing but he was quite good today, imo.

 

I don’t know. Sure he looked fine in the middle innings and was more aggressive but you can’t ignore the horsefeathers things he did to allow 7 runs to score. Plenty of horsefeathers pitchers can look good for a couple of innings in a start

I mean yeah he needs to be better and he certainly was a horsefeathering idiot at times to put himself in bad spots but I saw some encouraging things and he seemed to be better with not being ridiculously wild. The 3 run inning was a lot of stupid horsefeathers and sequencing that easily could’ve been 0 runs. But yeah he needs to be better no doubt but there were some positive things to take away

 

You keep saying this about the 2nd, but there was just the one pop up where three guys played it tentative to not collide with each other. Unfortunate, but that horsefeathers happens.

 

Everything else was line drives, a BB, and a double that was smoked. He also struck out the pitcher, who he usually walks, so good job there I guess?

By the way, I do agree he looked better today and had that nice little string where he looked really sharp. I’m just not excusing him for that 2nd inning.

Well a ball that’s never a hit still was a cause for it to get there and you can’t give free outs, he also had Mauer struck out and it wasn’t called and we had a weird shift on and if Almora is playing normal he has a chance on it. At the end of the day, yes you gotta figure it out but it took some weird horsefeathers to get there and he effectively should’ve been out of the inning with a number of different breaks.
