Norfolk Tides

A lot of talent on that team too, disappointing. Everyone is off to a disappointing start:

For the record Jason Pridie is pitching the ninth inning, that bad.

Funny considering that Pridie was the player that tweeted that the Tides could play in MLB.

Just look who started. Zach Petersime...or as I like to call him: who?

[Rene88]

This guy started, I never even heard of him:

For all the depth we have, why is this guy starting a game. It sounds like he made an emergency start-who did he replace?

Britton left the other day due to injury....man, I guess I won't make fun of DD's depth signings.

It only counts as one loss in the books.

Pridie had the best pitching line.

Hey Weams-any word on Britton?

Any clue why this guy is starting with all of our "depth"? Who was supposed to start?

[Enjoy Terror]

Petersime is an org. guy, he's been around forever. Possibly from the 2007 or 2008 draft (off the top of my head). I never would have suspected he would start in AAA to start the year, but there he is.

[Rene88]

I really think he was an emergency start and not assigned to AAA.

Isn't Britton hurt!??

[Rene88]

Yeah- he left 2 innings into his first start, not sure if there are any updates.

Britton has a blister issue. He had pitches on Sunday but only two innings. Couldn't feel the ball. Walked 4.

Having attended the record setting 21-4 night, yes it was an emergency start. last Thurs. - opening night - was rained out. Clark went Friday. Jurrgens pitched Saturday which ended up being an 11 inning game (was suppose to be the first game of a DH but they postponed the second game of the DH to Sun. after the first game went 11 innings - plus it was cold I guess.) On Sunday Britton and Garcia started each respective game. Stinson is suppose to start tomorrow and I guess Clark on Wednesday afternoon.

Felt sorry for Petersime. He was out there to take one for the team/organization tonight. They got 4 innings out of him.

If they keep losing by 20 runs in their losses, the Tides can pull the miracle Polythag discrepancy this year. :eektf:

[Rene88]

Thanks for the post Old Dominion! Good info. I figured he was taking one for the team, but shocked they didn't pull someone else. That's brutal. Bad start to the season.

Speaking of which, haven't heard anything about Bundy, I believe he was only on the 7-day DL. "No reason for concern" I am sure:)

Couple of TD's and a few timeouts and who knows...
