Abreu with a Really Badlyneeded Improvement

[patrickdrinksbeer 793]

I'm sure his Japanese team would just void the rest of his contract.  And no.

not serious about bauer, but you really think he doesn’t have a clause releasing him from his japanese deal if an mlb team comes calling?

Didn’t Bielak step up in a situation like this a few years ago?

if not coming in for an injury, was for an unexpected spot start 

Found it.

That injury for Urquidy only kept him out 2.5 weeks, but sounds like this one is different from his quotes yesterday

100% this.  You never have enough starting pitching.  Never.

it's crazy how many teams are dealing with this right now.  the yankees were supposed to have a great rotation, now it's cole + scrubs.  the mets were the dream team, now they're patching together sp2-5.  i heard an interview with someone with the m's before the season about their "3 aces", which played out about as well as you'd expect.

hopefully these are not surgery injuries.  we have the depth to deal with this thank god.  it should also coincide with our schedule letting up a bit.  next man up.

Damn that was close 

[UTexasFight 9527]

That’s not where you throw a 3-1 fastball

Consider it pushed. 

[Wulaw Horn 19147]

Bielak did his job and then some. 
Should go ahead and win this game with that going down the way it did.

Giants catcher frames absolutely everything like a little leaguer

Nice Dubon

[Scraps 13570]

Meyers, Machete, Dubon

What in the wide world of sports

[Halohal 502]

Does Bielak know that 3 and 1 is not how you finish a batter (still in the 4th, watching game on delay and catching up...)

[Mo Horn 8854]

I'm old enough to remember when Bregman was known for his clutch hits to give us a big inning.

I would have hoped that statistical milestone could remove that offensive millstone from the #1 spot in the lineup but alas, we have the mighty Meyers/Maldonado/Dubon bottom of the 3rd inning nut punch set up right now, so that's always nice.  

3rd inning nut punch- check. 
5th inning 2 out hero’s.

Oh you mean the B.S. years....Before Salsa

[tx 3 putt 77369]

We need to be pounding this bullpen 

[Mo Horn 8854]

In the 2 spot Pena seemed to be hitting better. Dusty gonna Dusty and move him back down... though that was a nice hit

[Scraps 13570]

Is this pitcher straight outta 1984?

[tx 3 putt 77369]

Maton was nails tonight 

[Mo Horn 8854]

Please bunt Maldy

[Scraps 13570]

Oh shit we gonna get the Meyers/Machete/Dubon connection again

[billfromlaketravis 11522]

This inning would piss me off so much if I were a Giants fan.

Probably would be lame if I said he's going through Hjelle this inning.
