Omogrosso not fooling anyone. He doesn't really have any plus pitches. Big batter in this game here for him.

Take him out!!!!!!!

Here we go again...with the bullpen issues.

 

Survived that one.

Good alignment by the D there

He almost certainly screwballs his changeup like a lot of guys do, considering its movement, but yeah. If something is hurting, probably elbow. If just general exertion is the issue, then he might be happy to just let off the gas on his changeups and achieve the desired effect

I hadn't really thought about the exertion thing. Maybe he's just worn out. He's as flat as I've ever seen him.

Nice positioning there!

Only one of those balls was hit hard plus Ellsbury's was solid but just a seeing-eye single

Missed a big mistake 0-2

I can't believe Buchholz made it to the 7th.

Gillaspie sliding a little bit and Keppinger waking up is coming at the right time with Beckham returning.

We are really overreacting to the potential risk of starting Santiago today. It is sub-optimal, but really not a big deal. Those side sessions are typically thrown at a very low intensity. You wouldn't develop any soreness, for instance. Some guys won't even throw them from a mound.

Actually from what I read he said he was cutting it loose it the BP session.

He's gotten away with some massive meatballs the last 3 innings.

Balls haven't really been flying the past two nights, short of the last inning of last night's game

The benefits of having awesome stuff

Gillaspie has the Rios thing going where if it's hit in the air to the opposite field, it's pretty much an automatic out.

We've had absolutely no luck tonight on hard hit balls

Good lord lets wake up Offense

Bucholz has his arm wrapped up like he's trying to keep it warm

Bring him back out. He's been playing fire all night.

Hey RV you are going to get burned ere

Remember when people said Omogrosso threw 99 mph in the minors?

Is RV asleep at the wheel again?

f*** with the seeing-eye grounders

I don't get what RV is doing here?? He knows it is a one run ball game with the heart of their line up right
