Memorial Day, May 29: Guardians come to town

[allquixotic]

Completely blown call for the ump, several inches high and away, but we'll take it.

Terrible call. We ll take it haha.

Doug Ennings with a gift to Wells

McCann framed that one and got one for Tylet Wells.

Doug Eddings is the plate ump.

He is one of the most notorious pitcher's ump in MLB.   Calls a lot of strikes.   

Thank you Mr Eddings for strike 3 on Naylor.

[Winter]

so many bad ABs -- players seem to be feeling too comfortable and need reminded there is a player waiting to take their starting spot at just about every positions except Mullins/Rutschman.

He screwed Mateo on an even worse call, so I don't feel bad.

No Rutschman, no Henderson, but who else from the "A" team has the day off?

Yeah, and sitting Henderson vs a lefty isn't exactly hurting the offense.

It's a day off for Adley, otherwise I don't see how we could have put a better offense vs lefties on the field today.

[Billy F-Face3]

Wake up the bats! Let's go!

[tntoriole]

So this is 4 games in a row except for Hays where the offense has disappeared. I have just about had it with the automatic outs of defensive types like Mateo, and McKenna is seriously in need of someone taking his roster spot

[dtk9119]

Can't ask for much more than that from wells. Now can this putrid offense wake up?!?

[SteveA]

Excellent outing by Wells.   Three straight really good starts for the Orioles rotation since Grayson's debacle Friday night.

Rangers and Tigers had been scoreless into the 5th but Corey Seager just hit an Earl Weaver special, so the Texas steamroller keeps on rolling.   I hope they win the division.

That's kind of my point. When you take out those two, this is what the lineup looks and feels like.

There's a lot of talk about how we need to add a top of the rotation starter to put us over the top, but I don't think the rest of the team is close enough to justify that. Help is on the way as we graduate guys, but we're not there yet.

Allen only at 77 pitches after that out.

Not like there is some advantage in getting into the Guardians’ pen
