I really don't mind Ross. HOWEVER, if Montero hasn't started the two games before a Lester start, Ross really shouldn't be catching. And I'm not even sure Ross is completely healthy right now. Also, lol, three bench players for today's game.
It bothers me when Castillo just gives up trying to frame a pitch if it's not right where he wants it. He could've made a few of those pitches to McCutchen look a lot better.
Tim Lincecum's average fastball velocity this season is 87.5 mph, down from 89.6 mph last season. In his first two seasons, his average fastball velocity was over 94 mph.
If Baez would come up with Castro, Russell, and Bryant on the 25 man roster, I bet Javy would be the one to move to LF for 2015. Then you maneuver in 2016 if Javy proves he can hit major league pitching.
Bryant can't move to LF; that spot is reserved for Schwarber now since Montero is awesome again and Bryant appears to be adequate at 3B. I think Hoyer's surprisingly candid comments about how we match up with the Mets signals they're going to move one of the shortstops - likely Castro or Baez.
