His velocity was down .. he was gassed imho.. ,, Franco the lefty i would have gone to Coulombe  .. well we can just hope the 2 runs doesn’t factor in .. 

He wasn’t gassed.

Oh thank heavens the Rays are still doing mental blunders.  Really wanted Grayson’s strong outing preserved!

Let’s win this thing!

I mean he should have had it on the guy he walked. How on earth is that 3rd pitch a ball?

The umpire blinked?

Franco is a switch hitter.   And his velo wasn't down that much.

I just don't understand two walks on 3-2 changeups with the bases empty and a 5 run lead.   You throw a fastball in that situation.

It was 83 MPH, he could have blinked twice and still seen that clearly.

Hopefully we can tack on some runs. Really need this game.

I still think Grayson was excellent today...but he needs to finish off his hitters when hes up 0-2 or 1-2...he gets behind and doesn't finish...

He was a bit gassed in his last inning imho.... not 99 where he was able to be the inning prior

I would advocate for McCann playing more to give Aldey more of a rest, so long as Mateo is not with him in the batting order. 

Let's not go too crazy. McCann for as great as his defense has been this year is still hitting .195 on the year.

He was throwing 97 man, how gassed was he?

[Mooreisbetter27]

He seriously just called that a strike??? Wow

He's gotten 110 ABs this year, it's not like they are playing him too much.

Hopefully it won’t cost us.
