[Just Regular]

Deano catching his breath - we've done something wrong if Drew French has anything to tell Dean Kremer about Aaron Judge he doesn't already know at this moment.

Why do O’s pitchers seem to have the unique ability to give up homers to sub .200 hitters. Ridiculous.

That and walks.

[dystopia]

Judge better not get anything close here.

[dystopia]

This team's refusal to pitch around certain hitters is going to be their undoing in the postseason.

Can,we at least get another decent reliever over the ASB Elias?

We just added Smith and Nittoli. That's not enough for you?

Well, he is getting Soto on BF #20 as I type, so we see today's decision.

I think Kremer in a playoff context for us is more of a once through the order guy.

I could get behind it if we had Coulombe but with the current squad, I feel like a bad matchup is just going to come up later. Though turns out he only made it 4.2 anyways.

Kremer is just not very good. They need to add 2 starters.

It’s tough to pitch knowing your offense is not scoring.  He is a solid 4 starter.  They have a 1,2,4,4,5.  We need a 3 to push Kremer and Suarez to 4 and 5.

Kremer cant give us 5 innings..83 pitches and out...what a joke...

[vab]

Kremer battled today - good effort.

Thats EXACTLY what they did with Judge!

[spiritof66]

OK. Let's get some guys on and then strand them.

They don't pitch around hitters they should. Judge never should have seen a strike in that AB. I still haven't forgotten when they pitched to Oriole-killer Rooker back in the first Oakland series when they should have just walked him. 

It's a problem. Didn't cost them this time but it has before and very well could have then. They have no baseball smarts or strategy.

Kremer is more of a 5th starter than a 3rd starter.

[vab]

Hey, at least we're still in this game. It's progress.
