it was 4-32 actually, but I am hoping for something that good now!

Could be. His kid has Familial Mediterranean fever and has had it since birth. The kid is awaiting an intestinal transplant. Not sure if maybe it got worse recently or it's something else that's bothering Jorge.

What's going on with Lopez? Not sure why the velocity is down.

Yeah, I know he’s paid well (compared to regular ppl) but how can you come to the park every day?

Watch Rays relievers...they understand that batters are to be retired late in games.

I used to think %s go against hitters. Someone needs to tell that to our relievers.

We're playing the NL Central which would have happened in '20 had it not been for COVID. Our two separate two games series will be vs. the Cubs, normally was Pittsburgh when we played against the NL Central (in 2014 and 2017). The original '20 schedule had it that way (vs. the Cubs in two separate series) as well. Interesting that the Brew Crew hasn't been here since 2003, back when they had Richie Sexson. So, this is only their 2nd visit since 1997 before going to the NL. I kind of wish the Majors would have a schedule rotation with Interleague the way the NFL does it. That way we would know before the schedule comes out which Interleague teams are going to be home and away (other than the obvious Nats).

This is so going on Jomboy tomorrow!

Ok, that whistling caused me to turn the sound off...Good God!

I think they’re just happy that “joy” rhymes with Choi.

Definitely over-announcing and trying too hard to impress with the Spanish pronunciation of every name.

Agreed. He has struggled in each rehab outing. Also, his pitches were moving like crazy before although I think his spin rate wasn't exceptionally high. This, to me is disturbing.

Sadly, I think that's it (org. not viewing him as a viable prospect). I always liked his stats, but haven't seen anything impressive from him in the little I've seen of him this year. I wonder if his future could be as a situation reliever? Doesn't throw hard, so maybe not.

No idea why for sure, but I would guess some of two and three. Also, it seems that Akin had a little more success in bulk roles. I don't like that Tate already went two innings on Tuesday, but I guess he'll have a strict pitch count and won't be allowed two go past the 2nd inning.

Unless Lakins is so far gone....but seems early for that to be the case. I guess it's more likely that someone is DFA'd. Maybe Konner Wade? He seems the most vulnerable.

Anyone that we can move to the 60 day IL (who isn't there already)?

Yep....no doubt. Not sure there is much long-term value to Sceroler.

Are we at the point where we are unwatchable? Not like we're getting killed most games, but still...no confidence in anything positive over the next couple of weeks until Anaheim.

100% agreed! I don't like someone like him being shuttled back and forth like this. He has some potential and needs to be consistently given starts at AAA IMO. He's succeeded everywhere prior to COVID and I think could be either a 4/5 starter or maybe LH relief specialist. This should be a spot for Tom Eshelman or Connor Greene or one of those types.

Ummm...Seriously? Armstrong!?!?!

This just happens way too often...ugh!

It feels like we're incapable of winning any game right now.

We knew this was coming eventually.

WoW!!!!

Gary? Is that you?
