Mounty, Gunnar and Stowers in the same lineup. Mercifully, they’re not back to back to back. But I’ll set the over/under at strikeouts for those guys at 6. 

Mountcastle hitting .302 over the last 17 games coming in today.

[Gurgi]

Ok am concerned.  His velo is 96.  Down three to our mph

[Moose Milligan]

It’s a Lowe!  I hate the Lowes.

Ooohhhh… that looked really damn close. Prob a ball though.

If we win this, it will be a miracle

There’s 1 walk. How many more can he have?!

Lol, it's easy to be a Stowers hater because he's clearly sucking right now. Your opinion changes when the wind changes directions. Stowers probably does need to go back down because it's in his head right now. He's having terrible PAs and that play in RF was inexcusable, but he's not a lazy player or a bad outfielder.

I don’t k do what is difficult to understand.

1. I’m a Stowers fan (as mentioned in the Stowers must be traded thread - he has been kind to my kids at Tides game)

2. He is prone to bone head plays

3. He has an accurate cannon 

4. His routes need to improve 

That is what I have stated over and over in various threads.  There had been “changing with directions of the wind”

 

[Gurgi]

One walk...he is good for at least two more.

That’s nice. It’ll be a good buffer for the inevitable cold snap to follow.

I used to deliver appliances for Lowe’s when I was younger until some dude dropped a refrigerator on me down a flight of stairs

[dystopia]

Yank him please

[Emory Eagle]

Enough with the GD walks

[Moose Milligan]

Of course.

Especially since Coulombe was warmed up earlier. I just don't get it. Hopefully Bautista can hold it here but I doubt this will be easy.

And Lowe is .100 OPS worse vs. LHP during his whole career. Strange decision indeed--there must be a reason.
