Nice relay/tag by Bo/Kirk there. Romano looking off at the moment.
I've been unimpressed with Biggio this season. He's never had a strong bat, but right now he can't even catch up with or barrel most fastballs he's been seeing which is extremely problematic. If he can't improve his timing, he will be a super sub/bench bat and have others like Martin/Groshans/FA pass him by.Quote:

Bo looks to be destined to 2B. Why not flip Semien with him? Will improve our D short term and might get more consistency from Semien's bat.
Romano has been off all season. Now Panik come's in to lead off the inning instead of PH for Kirk vs a Side arm RHP.Quote:

Cavan should be at 2B though.
Simien at 3B and replaced by Grosh next year (assuming we don't trade him).
Martin to CF.
Yea I just meant that inning he had 2 walks and got no outs.Quote:

Why not ease Romano back in instead of throwing him right into a high leverage situation
Tough loss especially since Ray did well.
Ray looked really good. That FB was humming
6 IP 3 ER = QS
Ryu/Matz/Ray that's a pretty good top end of the rotation
Ryu vs Patino (note Patino is a stud in the making)
I agree with all of this, but I will need to see how martins defence stacks up to springer in CF.Quote:

I'm not going to lose much sleep over Rowdy and his 39 wRC+ and his .500 OPS riding the pine for a game or two

Stats don't tell the whole story. Tellez IMO is a major league starterQuote:
