  1. This is a tough spot for Venable. How long can you leave Elvis out there? Still need to cover 8 more outs and you don't have a lot of fresh arms.
  2. Elvis was clearly meant to be a starter
  3. Remember when the scouting reports said Meidroth was somewhere between complete butcher and barely adequate for 2B only?
  4. That's my special little boy out there!
  5. Pleasantly surprised to see Shane back for the 5th
  6. Not totally clear on what they're trying to accomplish here. I'm not a big Burke fan but seems like this can't be purely performance-related.
  7. Didn't really get outplayed, but somebody has to win
  8. Perez 1.60 FIP in his comeback (just reporting the facts!)
  9. FWIW, Perez's average pitch velocities are 2-3mph above his season averages across the board. Some of it might be the standard gain guys get out of the bullpen, but I suppose it's a sign his elbow is in decent shape regardless.
  10. Well I'm thinking about 5 guys — Colson, Vargas, Lenyn, Mead, Meidroth — for 4 spots. Might be a matter of just rotating through 7 guys for 6 spots (add in Quero + Teel and the DH spot). I'd say that I am again ready for Lenyn try on an outfield glove, but that doesn't really solve any problems given that the starting 3 out there are pretty much set.
  11. I'm curious what the playing time will look like in the infield once Meidroth returns
  12. Well that could have been a lot worse. Perez is another one of those lefties who seems to get away with leaving the cutter over the plate pretty often
  13. LouBob needs to be careful with those off balance heaves back to the infield
  14. Davis you're getting too close to 30 years old to be falling asleep like this
  15. Probably can't let Davis go more than one more batter and even that may be too much
  16. Final pitch to Lenyn was a couple inches outside per Statcast. Of course that might as well be his wheelhouse lol
  17. Strange outing for Martin so far. Probably approaching a career high in whiffs but man is he getting pummeled if the bat touches the ball
  18. trying to think...if Taylor is either unavailable or being held for a save situation, who else is available? Owen White joined the team today so not sure of his availability (and I don't think I want him to pitch even with platoon advantage). Then you have Gilbert. Leasure just went back to back so he's out. And I think everybody else pitched already
  19. Might have been bailed out there. Curious who will pitch the 8th
