Wrong fielder to hit it to.

Agree with this. Very dumb. Our lineup is weak to begin with.

I hate bunting as well but in the 8th with one of your worse hitters up I guess I can see bunting.

Definitely. One of the best defensively in the game.

Pinch hit for Omar?

Good effort by Iglesias just has no chance on that.

Very

After a rough start to the year...the bullpen has turned into a strength again this year.

Agreed. That was prime hit and run time.

Looks like a decent crowd tonight.

I think that is a case where Fiers recent history gets him. But I agree. Not trying to hit a guy on a curve.

Omar of all guys with the bomb.

This is interesting...I never really thought of this. Isn't this kind of what Covey has done? He seems to command his fastball much better now than the little I saw of him last year.

I was actually going to ask in their chat what they thought of him. Just haven’t jumped on during one lately.

Yes it was.

I am cautiously optimistic. He upped his FB to 94-95 with some really good movement. Development of him and Rodon the rest of this year is really important.

Agreed. I will take those two swings. Lineout and a decently hit flyball he just got under. As Hawk would say he just missed it.

How did he look? Did he look as gassed as today? And what hitter was coming up?

Put Manny at 3B and Ramirez at 2B? That would be a ridiculous infield.

Good recovery by Fry. Kipnis is awful up there.

But I will say if he looked tired...stuff started to falter....or top of lineup was coming up then I would say it would be a good spot to take him out.

Unfortunately I didn’t see that game so I can’t say.

Once everyone gets there and bad decisions happen under the microscope a change will be made. Unless they want Girardi....then they will need to pull the trigger next season.

This is why Renteria will not last as a manager. Pains me to say it but I think Joe Madden takes him out after 7. Or at least after the first hit.

Yolmer is a good major league player. I would not have said that like 2-3 years ago when he couldn’t hit anything.
