Kimbrel up.  

Why. Let Akin finish this game and send him to DFA land.

Wish he would have hit Olbermann instead.  

I second that.

Is Westburg hurt?  Is he going on IL?

We hope it’s just precautionary. Have to wait till after game.

Looks like Kimbrel getting another "reset"

Why, you want to save him for a closer game tomorrow in Cleveland?

Prefer him when we are up ten or so. Otherwise I get nervous.

Probably.   Maybe.

I'm sure there are medical examinations going on right now.

Sometimes you wait for the next day and do an MRI.   But there is a decision to be made in a couple hours as to whether or not to get on a plane to Cleveland that makes it kind of interesting.   

We should hear something from Hyder in the presser.

Well we don't have that luxury.   We've got to get him right, whether it's to be a closer or a late inning guy.   He is certainly not going to the bottom spot of the bullpen, we don't have THAT much BP talent.

[eddie83]

Nice approach. Tack on. 

[dtk9119]

Well Gunnar can still hit at least...

[Moose Milligan]

Gunnar redeems himself a bit.  But to be honest, that's a routine grounder if the SS is playing straight up.

[Roy Firestone]

I ll take it from Gunnar...now he needs to find his HR stroke again...

[mrbig1]

Gunnar is forgiven.

[Tony-OH]

Cowser haters have gone pretty quiet.

I remember when Knoblauch hit Keith Olbermann's mother with a terrible throw.

Not sure that was an accident.

I think Gunnar is just so athletic and naturally talented he has gotten away with it for a long time.  Its good for him to have these issues now, so he can realize hes also got to be more fundamentally sound and work on playing the hop.

Hes a determined guy, he will get there.
