    If they like Bannon, they could option Nevin to have another outfield option. They had Nevin playing LF today which... if Bannon is gonna play 3B for awhile, Diaz is the guy you want spelling the outfielders, not Nevin. 

    I don't think they'll do this just to do this, but it's one way to get Diaz up here.

    I don’t think they bring him up in less he can get full time ABs.

    Arenado is a hall of famer right?  I didn't realize he's lead the NL in homers 3 times.  

    Nice out, for sure.  He could have done way more damage there.  

    It’s a shame he plays in NL.  He’s fun to watch.  Wish we saw more of him.  He’s made some difficult  plays looks easy that just makes you shake your head.

    Looked good today. Can't wait to see him with a less weirdly-angled CF camera, which I feel makes his stuff look more underwhelming than it is. 

    I was wondering about the angle.  Didn’t look like his breaking stuff was A+ today.  Blew some guys away with fastballs but didn’t see a ton of swing and miss on breaking stuff.  Good outing against a solid lineup. 

  4. He played CF earlier in the week.  He looks like he move a pretty well for a big guy.  He looks like he’s in a good place.  He swings at some questionable pit he’s sometimes but he is becoming a difficult out.

    I don't think there's a worse play in baseball than a failed sac bunt double play that erases the runner in scoring position. Absolutely brutal.

    Failed sac bunt triple play that erases the runner in scoring position and ends the inning.  You can thank Owings for hustling so we didn’t have to witness that.

    That was one terrible post game interview.  Was messing up canned lines and acted like he was was annoyed to be doing an interview.  Doesn’t seem to have much going on upstairs.  He admitted he lost focus in the 4th and became a “fan” watching the offense put up runs.  Pretty frustrating inning.  Hope he bounces back in a big way. 

    FWIW - last nights interview went much better :) 

     

    I imagine he was super nervous, flustered and a bit embarrassed during the 5/4 interview and made it obvious he was uncomfortable and wanted the interview to be over.  Maybe the comment “not going on upstairs” was a bit much. 
     

    Last night you could tell he was proud of himself and trying not to cheese up.  
     

    Next test = how do you go out after an electric performance, when everything everything is working, and pitch when you don’t have your A stuff.
