Yohan Ramirez just got the Yankees out in the 11th, if only we had a guy like him!
I'll take it. Well Yohan Ramirez still helped us.

It has absolutely been a complaint. I would say bullpen management is the most common criticism of Hyde.
Elias should get Hyde better bullpen pieces to help Hyde's strategy.

WESTY!!!!!!!!!!

The Ray's have bad pitching, we should've scored many runs off them!

Too bad we couldn't score on Lovelady with 8.29 era.

Which Webb are we getting?

We have very few wins like that.
I think the run scoring environment is down in baseball and people just haven't adjusted for that. We lead the majors at a bit over 5 runs per game, and there are only 2 or 3 teams that are scoring that much. Scoring is down.
So a night like tonight, where we have 4 runs in 6 innings, seems like we aren't hitting well. But it is actually quite good.
Add that to the general game thread mentality that every time we got a couple innings without scoring it's "sleepwalking", and selective memory, and people start to believe our offense isn't very good.
We have 4 runs in 6 innings and the majority of the comments on our offense have been negative. A guy who started year as our #5 starter and has allowed 2 runs in 5 innings and is still pitching in the 6th .... yet most of the comments here about his pitching are negative.
In a recent game thread someone posted that they could barely stand to watch our games because of our scoring droughts and other perceived flaws, And I think we had won 7 of 8 games at the time!!!!!
The gap between perception and reality in the game thread is enormous.
We need our pitching to be able to win when we score 4 runs.

Overall they score more runs than any other team.
You aren't going to score six every night.
The Yankees scored more runs than us.

If they weren't leading the league in scoring things would really be bad.
When we win games 10-2 and 11-1 it adds up, losing games 3 or more scoring 2 or less is more losses and runs seem higher when we win big in 1 game.

Mullins needs some time in Norfolk. I wonder if he has an option? He might just have one.
He does.

Ever hear: what have you done lately? OK we killed Jays the 1st 2 games.

I hope this not another can't score runs game! Our pitching is not good enough to hold 1 or 2 runs a game.
-
Give back run!

Ray DF'd Harold Ramirez, is there any interest? He is hitting .268 and only 29 years old. Only has 1 Homer. He'll probably be claimed before we have a chance.

Is the injury in the beginning of the season the same injury now?
-
If we gave a little more effort yesterday, I could accept this loss today. We are going to be 4 1/2 games out and sinking.

Povich may be good in the bullpen

I wonder what is wrong with Mullins?
