I'd send Gio out there though and if anyone gets on base pull him immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't pull him you start with someone warm in the pen either way. One guy reaches and I pull him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would make the 2nd half much more enjoyable. However, the qualifier is that this is the Royals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Just caught up on last few innings. Giolito fastball command sets up everything else, and it's been great. Fantastic to see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

black jack Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Attaboy! Glad he sucked it up and decided to play! You gotta play thru discomfort if you're going to be special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 A nice cherry on top of this game would be a Tim Anderson grand slam... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously I don’t want to get too excited here, but today is a great example of how development isn’t linear. These aren’t just good games, Yoan & Giolito actually look significantly better. I’m sure playing the Royals helps to some extent, but with young players it can all just suddenly click. Hopefully we’re seeing the beginning of consistent above average play from both of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Interesting looking at the OPS column in the live boxscore: Moncada – .735 Sanchez – .708 Abreu – .754 Palka – .751 Garcia – .732 Davidson – .771 Anderson – .719 Smith – .682 Engel – .579 Surprisingly little variance up and down the lineup. Engel is by far the worst in the 9 spot of course. Put Narvaez in at catcher and you have yet another guy in the .700s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
