Eloy looking breaking ball all the way on that pitch. 

God dammit. 

Pitcher lucky he wasn’t killed on Eloy’s hit

Ugh

Fun fact that I don't know where to share:

Tim Anderson has 10 hits with an exit velocity lower than Yoan's lowest exit velocity hit

Is Sale injured?

Was pumping 97-98 tonight..

Yeah, but 0-4 with an ERA over 8? Talk about uncharacteristic...

The other 3 starts he was struggling to hit 90 mph. He must have had a late dead arm period. 

I can't stand Leury's fake hustle when he catches it with two hands as well.  Like that play all he did was blind himself and bring in a possible misplay.  I'd much, much rather just make him the starting 2B at this point and roll with a real CF in Engel every night, at least it will help the pitching staff.

Playing him in RF also an option

I never thought I'd be pining for Engel, but Garcia and Palka are so horrible in the OF that they're killing the pitchers.

Yea that would be better as well.  I think he gets much better reads in RF then CF.

This Merrifield at bat is what will prevent Lopez from going 6 full innings.

Brutal. Gets on with a swinging bunt. 

Not exactly cat like reflexes on the mound.

Merrifield singlehandely shaving an inning off Lopez's night

Palka fouling off meatballs.  And he's gone.

Palka is horrendous

Fuck it. Bring up Delmonico. Palka looks so unbalanced and behind everything.

Yeahhhhhhh keep talking that shit about Leury, he keeps doin it

Leury is a nice player.  Too bad he's not  a super sub on a playoff contender tho.

Leury!
