QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 03:00 PM) Or Sands. The problem with him is that his defense absolutely bites. That could be an issue in a high-leverage situation, like the 9th inning We should probably put Jackson in for defense

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 02:59 PM) If they bring a lefty for Shuck, we should counter with Austin Jackson It only makes sense...

Nice job by Duke and Jones. Let's get another insurance run for Robertson.

Way to produce that run boys

Santana's got 6 inches off both sides of the plate right now. This ump...

Kepler's got some great range.

Latos had the off-speed stuff working real well that inning.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 01:37 PM) On Game Day both those called strikes looked like balls. Pitch trax had them as balls too.

None of these called strikes are strikes...

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 01:34 PM) They gona pitch around Jose again? Frazier's gotta start getting hits to drop if Jose wants to get good pitches to hit.

Melky upping that average up to .330.

Latos starting to get hit a bit harder the second time around. Mauer, Sano, and Park all put good swings on the ball that inning.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 14, 2016 -> 01:23 PM) Agree with that decision by RV. I do not like pulling the IF in early. Have some faith in the offense to put another few on the board. I agree with that as well. Better to let them have the run that will most likely score anyways than allow a base runner on a seeing eye single through a short infield.

Latos actually hit 92 out of the stretch.

That's a single if Melky doesn't dive...

Melky's range is just ugh.

Might be 3-0 if Kepler didn't make the play on Navarro.

Avi's strong.

Navarro can't catch a break.

Mat Latos...9 IP no runs. I know the offenses he's been up against haven't been good, but given the stuff he's throwing, I don't think he can keep anything close to this up.

I'm not sure how Latos keeps getting away with throwing 90 MPH fastballs right down the middle.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Apr 13, 2016 -> 10:05 PM) Starting pitching and pen continues to be superb!! Bats with a timely homer. Sucks to see us struggle getting guys in but that'll come as they continue to heat up. Awesome win and Pens win. My jobs done. I'm out lol We probably could have scored 5-6 last night given all the base runners we had. I'm still not sure why McEwing held Melky on Lawrie's double. I thought he would have been safe by quite a bit.

What a goodbye for Kobe. Stealing the Warriors' spotlight tonight lol

He's probably gonna get this inbound pass and get fouled. He'll have a shot at 60.

Kobe's goin' on a chuck fest tonight (the good kind though). Who can blame him?
