Rotation

I posted this in the minor league thread but unsurprisingly Kingham had Tommy John surgery and is out for the season. For some good news Taillon threw 3 innings today against the Phillies in extended spring training so he is progressing along nicely. At best though he is probably an option for August and September. In the mean time Sadler and possibly Sampson will fill the minor league pitching depth role.

Going with the closest thing we have to a regular lineup tonight.

Harrison 5
Walker 4
McCutchen 8
Marte 7
Kang 6
Alvarez 3
Polanco 9
Cervelli 2
Burnett 1

Burnett's streak is over but Raise It!

[Tomahawk27]

I think it's safe to say the offense is firing on all cylinders right now

[burgh_fan66]

With the emergence of Kang we essentially have 9 starters which means someone always has a day off. Today that falls to Harrison.

Polanco 9
Walker 4
McCutchen 8
Marte 7
Kang 5
Alvarez 3
Cervelli 2
Mercer 6
Liriano 1

Good problem to have! Let's make it 8 boys, Shields aint ****!

[burgh_fan66]

Not being able to add on is worrying me a bit here.

[burgh_fan66]

See that's why it worried me

[burgh_fan66]

Ugh what a crazy game

[burgh_fan66]

Bounce back tomorrow (or today) and take the series lead.
