The ugliest win of the year,among many. This entire rotation is in shambles. No start out of the last 5 has been good, and it's come against really poor hitting teams. It is really amazing that our record is what it is.And now we'll face some tough competition. We're going to see what we're made of in the next several weeks.

Sometimes I am amazed this team is 10 games over .500

Kind of reminds me of 2012 and the ridiculous record in 1 run games, but this team is I think much better than that one.  Still, would be nice to have a team playing well and backing up the record with a proper run differential, etc.

      Good post. .926 OPS since coming back from the IL. We saw this with Mullins and Mateo last year trying to play through leg injuries. It affected them at the plate big time.  Edit - I missed the part about him being banged up again. Crap.

      Brach was specific in his analysis he saw Vlad targeting RF all afternoon long, even though it looked like Povich was trying to get in some.     Granted Vlad is an unusual RHH.

      Scouts and stats - those two guys have a pretty gigantic contrast though. Povich and Irvin are I think kind of similar to Santander and Kjerstad or O'Hearn and Mayo roles wise for the ballclub.

      Cowser’s bat will come around. It’s a bonus that he’s decent enough to play CF. He must’ve worked really hard in the offseason. That’s probably why we saw Hilliard get the quick hook in ST. The FO saw.

      USA Beats Pakistan in T20 World Cup (Cricket)

      I had a heck of a time figuring out where to post the thread even. The only reason they are even in the tournament is because they are hosting. Sounds like they have a good shot to make it to the next round. This format of Cricket is a lot more conducive to upsets.

      Very excited about Cowser.  Kid is a player and I think the summer is going to be big for him.  My biggest take away on the season to date is how good the four young stars on this team are and that they play right up the middle: C, SS, CF and, if you wanted, 2B.  Once Holliday is here, and Westburg is at 3B, this team will only have to fill the corner OF, 1B, DH and bench spots.  There are copious options for that now and they will soon include Mayo, Kjerstad and Basallo.  And, yes, Mayo may stick at 3B and Basallo can catch.  I know there is discussion of how well, or not, Elias has done drafting after the 1st round, and that he won't have high picks going forward, but this offense is set for so long.  Just keep the pitching strong and look out.
