vs. PHILLIES, 8/12

[Morgan423]

Why is Hoskins so mad?  He already walked on an 0-6 count earlier tonight and then scored a run from it.  He's already ahead.

I don't really care whether Severino or Sisco catches because neither are longterm options behind there. But i am interested to see if Sisco's bat will play with everyday PAs and I'd like to see him getting some of those at 1B.

Another reason to get rid of Davis.

[eddie83]

Don’t like that. He is hitting too well.

I just don't have enough faith in Sisco's bat to plot him at first or DH for many at bats.

Speaking of getting rid of players, can we cut Wade LeBlanc? Keegin Akin can't possibly be worse than him

Smith doing everything he can to avoid catching the ball. Admirable, really.

He is quite awful out there. I really don't understand why Mountcastle is not up here by now.

It could be so many things.  I'm thinking it was the Morbidi I Mnoći I played earlier in the week.  Now what caused that to hit my suggestions...

 

 

Shame the sound is so muddy, this might be interesting.

You're certainly venturing off the beaten path for your music fix

My beaten path is off the beaten path.  For the record I consider that one a miss.

Except for 1 or 2 pitches he actually pitched quite well tonight. Robbed by the ump. And that is NOT sour grapes.

I would call up Mountcastle and maybe Dilson Herrera and Smith and Davis goes. DH Sisco couple times a week.  

[O's84]

Ruiz!

[eddie83]

Rio.  

[Chavez Ravine]

Roll on Rio!!!

This ump, he no bueno, everyone says it.  It's not a secret.

I wouldn't expect his bat to be a difference maker at first, but it could certainly not kill you (goes without saying that he is a better option than Davis). .300/.360/.500 wouldn't shock me.
