Way to go Lex!

 

Or....would Ozzie play Lexi at 3b, then SLAYER! at SS??? Or SLAYER! at second, Lexi at SS and ? at 3B....

 

More Shiner Bock please!!!

Alexei is staying at SS, I can guarantee that. Beckham's playing at SS tonight.

Leadoff double for Pirates. Cora needs to get Dotel up in the pen. Can't let Richard get into too much trouble.

Fathom, I hope you're right, but just like your tagline, Mr. Pessimism, I dunno...

I could very well see SLAYER! go to SS and Lexi @ 2b. KW can still make a trade for a 3B if he feels that Tank will take a little longer to develop...

Ozzie has reiterated every chance he can that Alexei will be our SS now and in the future.

I would still like to see Alexei in center and Beckham at short.

Good enough for me then...

 

Just have to solve the 3b problem now...

I would still give Fields some more time. Either way, I would hate to see Gordon move to a corner IF spot.

Not really sure why Richard was left in to face Monroe. He's now at the 100 pitch mark, and his pitches are all over the place. Tying run to the plate.

I couldn't agree more. Moving him to 3rd would really diminish his above average ability as a middle infielder.

You can tell Richard is out of gas, but Adam LaRoche decides he wants to suck.

That really needs to be it for Richard. Why are we letting him face the righty when he's at 105 pitches?

This is just terrible managing by Cora right now.

Clayton gets out of it.

 

Six scoreless innings, just four hits. Hell of a job. Turn it over to the pen.

I'll take it!!!! Hell of a performance by Richard.

Poor San Diego...Richard could have been a hell of a pitcher for them at Petco. I'm glad we have him.

Jake who?

Excellent game by Clayton, but Cora/Cooper got away with one there by letting Richard finish that inning... his location was all over the place.

Nice comeback for Clayton. 6IP, 8Ks although 3 BBs/4 Hits allowed...current ERA @ 3.55.

 

 

Richard's dealing tonight.

 

You think Kevin Towers is watching tonight?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Damn, I wish I had started watching before this last inning. Richard had 8 k's! He must have been pretty money tonight. Wish I could have watched him operate more than 1 inning.

Nope. Kevin Towers is drinking margaritas in beautiful SD....

You think Kevin Towers is watching tonight?

 

He probably just choked a small animal.

Good job Clayton,let's finish the game strong.

Quentin isn't going to do anything at the plate until he starts hitting it towards the middle of the field. I've never seen someone pull more pitches than he has over the last month.
