He’s had one or two good swings since he’s returned.  Swing isn’t very compact.

To be fair, I'm not sure anyone would have guessed changeup, up and in, with 2 strikes there. Eloy definitely wasn't thinking it was even an option.

Yeah, he had no chance. He was guessing velocity with the ball up there.

Catch the ball Zach.

Much better velocity this inning from Lucas. 

We'll get runs on this guy, just gotta let Gio settle in, get guys out, and not punch walls when Collins is at bat!

Sigh.

He was looking for the change up. 

OK, maybe I spoke too soon. Sheesh, HR to .....who?

Stupid pitch call.

Pitch selection is ridiculous tonight 

Pitch selection has definitely been an issue this game so far. 

Had to be sitting changeup because that looked like a good pitch

What the fuck.

Does TA get that if Yoan doesn't tip it?

It was 50/50 there. We called nothing but change ups and fastballs that AB I think. No sliders. 

Horrible start all around good work boys!

Collins has to play sometimes for....reasons 

Please demote Collins now

Collins/Lucas picked an odd time to go away from the slider considering he's thrown a ton of them tonight

So it's gonna be one of those games, huh

OK then.

This feels like a 6-0 lead right now. 

He has absolutely nothing on these pitches. Gonna be a short outing.

Giolito is such a bummer.
