He doesn't even need to do well, he just needs to do something. Westburg did something and he's stuck around, he's not exactly lighting the world on fire. Cowser will have to show something at some point. I think I'd start with a couple of singles and not being struck out so much.

They just put Cowser in the lineup because they are expecting a rain out.

Kimbrel is a strikeout pitcher. He always has been. He'll be fine in that role this year.

He had more than 12K/9 last year and has 2 Ks in 1 inning this year. Bautista couldn't hold runners on at all, they ran at will. If Hays calls off Gunnar he easily makes that play and Kimbrel gets a save and nobody complains.

It was a much more defensible outcome than Henderson's error. That is a play that should have been made.

Laughers, just because it's exhausting listening to people talk about out performing our pythag.

I don't have any problems with Kevin Brown. I enjoy him, just pointing out his faux pas from last night.

Yeah, my point was more to the fact that if he's playing in, he has even less time on a ball at 79 mph.

If they banned everyone for idiotic posts there would be about 12 members left on the board and I probably wouldn't be one of them.

He was playing in on the grass so I don't know if that skews the numbers at all. I do believe he should have made the play but he was playing in due to the speed of the batter iirc.

He did say the winning run was on in the bottom of the 8th. The run scored, but it clearly wasn't the winning run. He's okay, though.

That was quite the draft class.

FDS (Frazier Derangement Syndrome) is real around these parts.

He came up big when it mattered and hit it in the perfect spot. 12/30 ballparks that's a HR so I'm not going to pretend a 369-foot flyball was flashing real power but he won the game, so kudos to him!

I think Witt will have the better career, but both will be playing in all-star games. His speed/power combo is something that Gunnar can't compete with.

I mean, you never get analysis from them.

They really torched him, yeah.

Felix blew 8 saves and had an 8-2 record last year.

We'll take it!

Blind squirrel just found a nut!

Kimbrel was fine that inning. The blunder was on the D for that bloop.

He hasn't pitched since March 20th. Hopefully, it's rust.

It seems weird that he's posing when you aren't given signs by the catcher anymore. I know it's part of his windup or whatever.

Damn you MLB.TV. Just started buffering

Agreed, the only way he makes it is if he never stopped running.
