Seems like Baldwin's headed back down for Sosa's return.

Murph has been on a good run too

I guess he got word of Tyler Anderson coming for the TWP crown

?

I wish they sent the team that plays in Chicago on the road trips. 70% of your wins being home games has got to be on pace for some kind of record splits.

I thought Langford caught that lol

Umps have been awful all series

That sucks, would have been a really heartening one to get. Gotta make contact in extras. No real issues with the levers Veneble pulled, most of them worked, and the ones that didn't weren't really in his control. The guys fought hard, just ran out of bodies. Also...it's a win in regulation if not for that ball 4 call to Seager. I'm still annoyed on behalf of Taylor's ERA.

Score a couple and maybe a position player can close it out?

Love the fight, but the bench is empty, there's 1 guy in the pen, and they have no DH for extras. Needed to make one of those plays earlier (or have Taylor not get squeezed, but I digress).

Taylor doesn't hit that often, but I feel like half of those hits have been timely doubles.

Rule 5 restrictions carry over through waivers, trades, etc. Basically they apply to all 29 teams other than the original until fulfilled. That's why he was on waivers to begin with; Tampa was restricted from sending him down even though PHI was the team to actually draft him.

I don't think Quero scores from 2nd on Tauch's hit, and probably not from third on the Meidroth groundout either.

Scoreless inning if the last pitch to Seager is called correctly.

That caught the zone

Maybe they'll miss not having Wilson later in the game, but I like Venable treating that as a leverage spot and going to one of his best arms accordingly.

Totally fine with the top guys skipping Charlotte in my opinion, but alright.

Ump just calling whatever back there

Trying to swing his way to Chicago with the big hit in a leverage spot instead of sticking with his usual approach.

5Ks sucks, but Slater probably took an inning off Valdez' outing last night. He saw 24 pitches out of Valdez' 95 thrown and 35 overall. If you can't hit a guy, at least make him work.

I'm like 17 innings away from buying a Vargas jersey.

I don't think it's that soon necessarily, but I think there's a reason Meidroth is getting more 2B reps lately despite grading out well at short.
