Let's continue to lose

Imagine being a STH, keeping these 2 games because you have a few M's fans for friends or know family will be in town... and then you get to witness Holland and Shields back to back.

Let's strive mightily to win the game because it's more fun than losing

What happened to Holland?

What's fascinating is the Sox twitter account just casually drops the lineup for today with no mention of Holland being scratched. To me, that suggests there is some smoke here. And if so, I like the fact Hahn is moving fast and not sitting on all his chips days before the deadline.

I'm with you.

I just think they're giving Holland an extra day, and reiterates how they didn't want Quintana to be on pace for the 30th or 31st.

Tues- Gonzalez Kershaw

Wed- Rodon Maeda

I'm pretty sure they announced that Holland would start on Sunday instead of Saturday shortly after the Quintana trade was announced.

 

EDIT: Announced yesterday just after 5PM https://twitter.com/ChiTribKane/status/886013869612826625

You got it right. They put him into Quintana's slot

 

No Yolmer again? Kinda odd.

 

I would've thought he'd worst case be a guy we want to showcase with Moncada coming.

Melky with a home run to lead off and Frazier with a double.

 

 

Anderson coming out of the ASB looking like he's never seen an offspeed pitch. Same thing happened last year

We let felix off the hook last inning

At least defensively he's locked in.

Melky really killing felix today

At least defensively he's locked in.

 

Nope...at least he doubled. He just doesn't have normal SS movements on defense

Why does renteria pull pelfrey so early for?

Pelfrey can't go five full innings AGAIN!

That barehand play by Frazier and catch at first by Abreu is a web gem

Why does renteria pull pelfrey so early for?

Because he gets destroyed the 3rd time through the order. OPS against - 1st time through order is .722, 2nd time through order is .592, 3rd time through the order it goes to 1.322. That Segura hit was what he's used to seeing.

That we did

Why does renteria pull pelfrey so early for?

Letting Pelfrey face lineups a 3rd time through the order would be a disaster.
