We need Maeda to walk the bases loaded here.

What did I miss?

Ok who do you guys want in the rotation Gonzalez or Dunning. 

I’d like to see what Lambert can do

On what planet did it make sense to start him against the Twins?

They don’t care about velocity. Kopech was way down with his and they kept throwing him out there.  

Thats nice if they dont care about velo from a pitching standpoint valuing movement and control more, but they should still be monitoring it as a baseline for their pitchers to see if somethings wrong or to evaluate changes in mechanics

That’s what some of us kept harping about pregame. Same doofus that makes these lineups

This is my issue. Shouldn't have started this game period.

Never want to see ReyLo again. He’s Carson Fulmer but instead of draft status he has trade status

Why is Delmonico batting 2? I thought they had Eloy there?

Ozzie wouldnt have started him

Good lord Anderson.

Great fucking lineup here...

That was the Rich Hill (LHP) lineup. They say.

Because Renteria finally realized Maeda wasn’t a lefty and redid the whole lineup.

lineup was revised after Ricky remembered Maeda is not a lefty

did that really happen or is that just a rumor?

Just now, Tony said:

Your issue should be how bad of a pitcher Lopez was, is and will be. The opponent hasn’t made much difference the last 3 seasons 

Whomever said that he's Fulmer with the trade pedigree instead of draft pedigree is correct.

They revised a lineup and there was no injuries/scratch announcements.

They claim the original lineup was for Rich Hill, but not sure how that makes any sense.

I don't know if anyone else remembers this but we had exactly the same conversation in 2019 after Lopez's first start because his fastball in that game was down in the low 90s/upper 80s as well.

What random veteran guy are we going to sign now?

Bartolo Colon?

Might as well begin the process of converting Lopez into a reliever.      Still have Lambert, Dunning and Gio...and our draftees, lol.    Would be crazy if we have another Chris Sale 2010 situation with Crochet.
