Sorry to report that he has a 7.71 ERA.

Bummer redeemed himself today. However, he needs to cut down on the walks if he wants to be successful reliever going forward.

And two bad change ups to Hernandez = 2 homers. Made same mistakes twice. Is that on Collins or Carlos or. Calls from the dugout?

Tim should have gone to second with a catcher running from first, as per Bennett on TV broadcast.

Are these being called from the dugout?

Stoney called this out on TV as well. Calling a fast ball again to Naylor was inexplicable, particularly when he cannot hit a slider.

Still Eaton misplayed the play and Naylor line drive should have been caught.

Pitch selection/calls by dugout/Collins/carlos have not been good today.

Collins/Carlos should put that change up in his pocket for the rest of this game.

I this game we have 3 bad ones back to back. Eaton, Leury and Collins. You figure...

Think Collins is a worse hitter than Leury.

Key message is don’t let Ramirez beat us.

Madrigal should be hitting second. We had hit the jackpot with him at second. Ideal hit and run guy when Anderson gets on base. Table setting for Yoan and Jose with minimal strikeouts. Lamb should be hitting 6 th instead of Eaton. Our lineup today 6 thru 8th is bad.

I think the four game sweep of the Orioles.

Madrigal should be left hitting second. Set the table for Yoan and Jose with minimal strike outs.

Collins is an out dressed as a baseball player. Fortunately, we did not need any hitting from him today.

While at the same time giving us the finger on his picture....

All this discussion would have been avoided if TLR would have brought in a more effective reliever than Bummer,who walked 2 with a 3 run lead. That was the reason for my outburst of taking Lynn out.

Would not have been necessary if they let Lynn finish the game.

A more likely explanation is that it was another inexplicable TLR move.

Bummer has been a bummer.

Hawk Harrelson would have gone berserk with that dreaded lead off walk with a 3 run lead.

But not to pass the game to a reliever that walks two with a 3 run lead.

And then he can sell it to Yermin.
