They think they will stike out Mateo.

Or pop him up like a Little Leaguers again.

Another horrible swing decision by Mateo.

Cano for the 9th.

 

After 1.2 yesterday. I just don't know how he can sustain this 

[mrbig1]

Called it.

No pinch runner. I guess because no 1Bman on the bench.

 

 

[Yossarian]

Two pop foul outs in big situations for Jorge

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

I just turned away for a second, but did the Rays really intentionally walk Gunnar to get to Mateo?

Can't blame the Rays it worked like we all knew it would.

[Dunk35]

Jesus Mateo is zero clutch

[Ripken]

Say, how are Ortiz and Westburg looking?

[Moose Milligan]

God what in the actual **** is Mateo doing lately.  He's completely unraveled from the approach that had him going so good to start the season.

That was a terrible pitch to swing at.  Awful.

Imagine if Christopher Columbus could tell us that Mountcastle would walk twice tonight.  We would all be shocked.  He could demand we bring him food and supplies for months.  We would be that amazed.  Like seeing an Eclipse.  

Dude, easy on the beers.

[Roy Firestone]

That empty inning could come back to bite us...Mateo is waaaay off now...killed us tonight...

[justD]

When did Urias get injured?  Is he the hole we have now with RISP?  

[Gurgi]

I guess Mateo is not going to be a MVP caliber player?  Maybe we should just give Gunnar SS and bring Westburg up to do third.   We can use Mateo as pinch runner and super utility.

I'm ready for Ortiz.
