No they don't. They can keep being horrible.

Nice heads up play by Huff to see that Kapler overran 3B. The last time that happened, it killed a rally for the Yankees. Let's hope the same thing happens, as that could have been a big inning.

next time I'll include a rolling eyes smiley or the ba dum dish for you JTrea, it's cool though

Well, there's 28 pitches left for Hendrickson to reach 100. Not that 100 is his absolute limit, but it is his first start of the year. Can we get two more out of him? It obviously depends on his execution, but let's hope so. That would be a heck of an outing, and would obviously be great for our bullpen.

TB has 9-1-2 coming up in the 5th.

...which probably means he'll only get through 5 and fraction at most...

I'm worried about the # of pitches this is taking Hendrickson... 72 pitches already

I just checked the same thing. In addition to his high wire escape act, his pitch count is up. He will more than likely be over 90 after the next inning which will prompt more DT is wearing out the BP threads.

      IMHO this is a mistake. Use the Akin option. 3.44 ERA in 17 appearances, not to mention a minor league no-hitter.

      Truth is, they’ve already made some adjustments.  He’s only started 35 of 43 games, and he’s batted in the bottom third of the order in more than half those starts.

      The Machado trade wasn't the mark of poor judgment.  We got a decent return for when we traded him (2018, with less than a year of control left).  The underlying issue was failure to recognize the timing of that team's window shutting.  2017 started off well enough, but May was punctuated by a 5-14 stretch in the last 19 games of the month (including a 7 game losing streak) and a losing June (that had a 6 game losing streak).  They then limped into the AS Break on a 3-6 July start (including another 5 game losing streak).  Went from a season best 22-10 on May 10, to 42-46 at the break. The pitching clearly couldn't keep up, and denial is a powerful thing.  We didn't do any selling or start a minor rebuild.  Whether that was a Duquette decision or an Angelos decision... who can say? I always look back at that period as having a silver lining though.  We had to crash and burn... to be built back to strength with our modern iteration of our team.  I'm not so sure that the team would have decided to take the same path if they had found additional ways of treading water for several seasons longer than they actually did... so I'm loathe to criticize the failures in the last seasons of the Duquette era.  Without them, we very well might not be where we are today.

      Even our bad lineups have a brutal top half of the order for opposing pitchers.

      Mullins had a good AB left on left last night that hopefully is a good sign of a turnaround. 10 pitches and fought off several fastballs that he has been swinging through. Ultimately just a groundout but I thought it was encouraging.    Liked the bunt single too.

      Well...the "A" team hasn't been scoring runs when he pitches anyway.  Might as well shake it up a bit.
