The only reason Ort is still on the 40 man roster is that they have not needed his spot yet. And with 38 on the 40 man roster that may not be the reason he is DFA. He will probably go to make room for Held, McGough or Richmond. -
This is no big deal ….He has a right to have an opinion. I believe Holiday was called up too soon. I also believe the front office was pressured by Hollidays father and agent. -

When he first came up, his slider was very mediocre and only really used as a get me over change of pace. Now it seems like a weapon. I wonder if he went to school with Professor Bradish for that. -
Yeah, kinda why I asked the question. That seems real lofty for a comparison.

After a really disappointing April that saw his ERA balloon to 7.78, Alex Pham has found his bearings in May, allowing 3 ER in 14.1 IP, allowing 8 hits and 4 walks while striking out 17. Yesterday Pham allowed a run on 2 hits and a walk in 4.2 innings, striking out 7. 53 of 72 pitches were strikes. The sole run charged to Pham scored when reliever Kyle Virbitsky allowed a 2-out double to the first batter he faced after relieving Pham in the fifth. Due to the poor start, Pham’s ERA still rests at an unimpressive 5.29, but he’s definitely been headed in the right direction. Also, he’s struck out 40 batters in 34 innings. -
I can’t emphasize enough how stupid that rain delay was. No rain at all for 45 minutes, then two hours of light mist, the kind that teams play through all the time. I was standing near the kids play area during most of the delay and believe me, that rain didn’t deter any kids from using the playground equipment for two hours. Then, 15 minutes before the game is going to start, the grounds crew is watering the infield. What? The game itself was not worth the wait, needless to say. But what annoys me most is the complete lack of communication during these delays. How about letting the fans who are there know what the thinking is about how long the delay will be? How about an update every 30 minutes or so. Nope, nothing. Just a generic message on the scoreboard saying that the start of the game will be delayed to to the “threat” of inclement weather. My phone was showing .05” of rain expected in the next six hours. Some threat! On the bright side, the team did announce that ticket holders would be given vouchers that could be used for a Monday - Thursday game. That was the least they could do.
