Trying to work Fontenot into the weekend rotation, I bet. Here's his first ramp up game.

I'm hoping for the best.  Boehm has to stay in the bullpen, as the one (?) reliable arm.  What other options are there?

Easton Tumis seems like a reliable (yet young, and untested over a long duration) arm. He and Grubbs are likely the best options after Boehm. When Witt isn't leaving fastballs right over the middle of the plate, he has shown he can be a good option.

But yeah, Boehm is really the only BP arm I don't sweat over. Especially if Fontenot is moving to the starting rotation.

Stick to the code, take all you can and leave nothing for the rest.  

[VirginiaLonghorn 4,767]

PB used both hands to catch the first two F8!

[Bevo&Pevo 5,120]

Good looking breaking ball on that 2nd pitch

[Horny Bull 2,759]

Fontenot starts the game with a 1-2-3 inning.

Gotta give that 3B dude some credit, nice catch.

Season's over

[MuellerHorn 4,225]

That's just about the luckiest strike you'll ever see haha.

Fontenot lost a pitch high and inside, the batter ducked as to not get beaned in the head, and the ball subsequently hits the bat that's still stuck up in the air.

Uh... he might want to back off the plate some.

[HenryJames 66,031]

Ump needs to stop being a faget on called third strikes.

[zlavydra 2,119]

Shift works!

[ClubWhatever 12,120]

Shift worked!

[Hookem2147 21,188]

We got the midweek sized strike zone tonight 

[Horny Bull 2,759]

Quick inning for Fontenot. Doing a good job of getting ahead in the count so far.

Good catch by you, too!  That’s what a couple of “tall boyz” for dinner will do …

Keith saying "Warshington" never fails to crack me up.

[Hookem2147 21,188]

Facing Fontenot is probably just a tad different than facing Texas Southern over the weekend 

[Horny Bull 2,759]

First base runner for either team reaches via a walk.

[Hookem2147 21,188]

2-2 pitch was right down the middle.

[ClubWhatever 12,120]

lol 

[Hookem2147 21,188]

There are snails that move faster than Jack O’Dowd

[TornACL 7,698]

I can't watch this complete lack of range at 2B all season long.

[Levi 2,584]

It’s just so painfully obvious at this point with O’Dowd. 

[HenryJames 66,031]

K

[ClubWhatever 12,120]

Somebody who's caught tell me why that stance isn't stupid 

[Horny Bull 2,759]

Fontenot strands a pair T3.

[Hookem2147 21,188]

Missed 2-2 pitch on the first walk cost Fontenot about 15 pitches

2-0 Texas after 3.

[zlavydra 2,119]

2-0 Texas after 3 innings. UIW pitcher is not terrible, and they play decent defense.

[Horny Bull 2,759]

Selvig on to pitch.

[Hookem2147 21,188]

Interested to see Selvig here

[shadow_operative2.0 15,941]

Jesus fuck, Porter. 

[zlavydra 2,119]

PB reminds me of me playing OF in softball. But with prettier eyes.

[David Dennison 18,837]

Wasn't as bad as I thought, but still.

[VirginiaLonghorn 4,767]

Get PB a dip net … and a helmet for his safety.

[hobbes2702 13,028]

Can we please DH Porter 

[Horny Bull 2,759]

Selvig strands a runner at second T4.
