  1. Penn Murfee's outing tonight for Fayetteville was not as positive as Verlander's outing for the Hooks. 0.1 IP 3 H 4 ER 1 BB 1 K on 19 pitches. (12 strikes).
  2. Didn't see this posted earlier
  3. underrated post
  4. Boston blew it against the Rangers as well so that's better for us in the wild card race I s'pose.
  5. TIGERS WIN ASTROS WIN
  6. HARD AGREE Wtf Windmill, everyone knows Chas is an auto out. Make Siri make the perfect throw.
  7. Meyers should have been sent home
  8. damn soooo close to a yordongg
  9. wow can't believe we got that one to go our way
  10. this pesky mfer
  11. that was a strike goddamnit
  12. TK called that one
  13. "Slow progress, but he's trending in the right direction."
  14. but what about after that? stick with it for the remainder of the season or nah?
  15. With the way the schedule plays out for the rest of the month, I think it's a certainty that they go with a six-man rotation for those 18-straight games after tomorrow's off day. With Blanco's recent struggles pitching deeper into his starts and Verlander's age/uncertainty wrt coming back after a long an extended absence, what do you think they do in September with the pitching rotation? Should they just stick with a six-man rotation if everyone stays healthy or--with the importance of the division title--should they ride the hottest arms and maximize their win opportunity over concerns about load management for the starting rotation?
  16. JV pitching Thurs for the Hooks
  17. This matchup of tonight's starters was not so good for us last time around so hopefully we pay Littell back with a series-ending sweep.
  18. Not lately, and you have to think Blanco's arm is getting a bit tired at this point. He will benefit greatly imo from a six man rotation when JV gets back and hopefully they can find spots to get him extra rest and go with the hot pitching hand(s) when they roll with a five man rotation instead.
  19. I don't think we can realistically expect either to provide much considering how bad we've had it with rehab outcomes for the pitching staff so far this season. Murfee threw a 25-pitch bullpen session in Florida this past weekend. Haven't heard any updates since. I expect we will know how that went in the next day or two. He could be an intriguing addition to the pen but, again, it's unrealistic imo to expect any significant contributions this late in the season when he hasn't even had a chance to build up to pitching in live games.
  20. A bone bruise can be quite serious, which is exactly what this is.
  21. All that talk about Kikuchi not even cracking a potential playoff rotation looks pretty silly now.
