One of those days.

[David Dennison 17800]

Hit all your lefties against Hunter Brown.

[Gut Wagon 8038]

Three opppnent singles with a combined velocity of 200 mph is a bad sign. But it's still early. 

[David Dennison 17800]

Welp.

Keep him in until his work is done. BP needs the rest.

Not early when you are down 5 anymore. Buzzards luck. 

[UTexasFight 9304]

Do it

 

 

[Dutchrudder 11069]

Gonna need 13 runs again today, hope they are up to the task.

[Rockethorn1978 6059]

Well guess so much for Hunter brown figuring it out. He’s right back to getting lit up in the first 2-3 innings again. 

[runthebone 7894]

Early campaign for July POM looks weak

He's been so good lately I'm not even upset.

[HtownHorn 14340]

Brown getting the Contreras treatment. Fuck Joe Espada. He's fucking killing his pitching staff for no apparent reason. This is why you never should have let them score 7 runs in the 9th yesterday, you won the game but gave them momentum for today. Then you going to let Brown be sacrificed because you are a shitty manager that has no idea how to manage a pitching staff.

[Honeysucklerose 955]

Can we pull Brown today. He doesn’t have it

[Gut Wagon 8038]

I read that Brown had rediscovered his fastball. Seems the Twins have rediscovered his knuckle curve.

I bet Loperfido pitches an inning before this game is over.

This is all Espada's choice.

Why pull him at this point when you need to rest the BP? Get his 100 pitches in and move on.

[UTexasFight 9304]

That was a bomb 

[Dutchrudder 11069]

406 feet to Center for Singleton!

Chas needs to wake up, show some fucking signs of improving 

asap 

[tx 3 putt 75521]

Brown is in there until he throws at least 110 pitches

Jose Miranda looks like a penis head with Down’s syndrome…

 

 

unfortunately, he doesn’t hit like one 

Still true.…

I'd guess 100 or so and have no problem with it.

He's a veteran major league pitcher.

if it was the playoffs, huge issue 

today, have to hold the line and hope we can snag some more runs. we’ve scored here before 

[Gut Wagon 8038]

Nice time for another crooked number. Although 11 arguably isn't crooked.  

[tx 3 putt 75521]

Look, I like Chas and think he’s a solid 4th or 5th of, but damn we need to get more of his spot when he’s starting 

it’s in him, maybe they need to rub an egg on him

Pudding 

Dusty was very turned into his guys and when / when not to play them. Old school baseball feel. He wanted his guys in the best spot to succeed 

also, 100% I’m eating at This is It on monday. I’ll get a banana pudding to go because their plates are two meal plates 

[David Dennison 17800]

They're doing that on purpose.

[tx 3 putt 75521]

Fuck me, it’s open season on our super stars 

brown needs to do his job to start the next inning 

[BrickTop 474]

Ok these worthless mtfers

[David Dennison 17800]

This is precisely why pitchers should have to hit.

[YChang 3394]

Come on, chip away. Let's get another run back. 

[tx 3 putt 75521]

Pinch run him 

[BrickTop 474]

Bregman gonna catch one next

He's alright.

Day off tomorrow probably.

[Honeysucklerose 955]

Someone better get plunked

[runthebone 7894]

First two guys on their team.get one in the back

[tx 3 putt 75521]

Make them pay singleton

hopefully he reads this thread 

[runthebone 7894]

Espada better have 2 guys warming up.  One to get tossed and the next to take over.

[BrickTop 474]

This umpire isn’t helping with this dogshit inconsistent zone.

Did you watch?  He could have just as easily given up zero. 3 hits weren’t hit hard enough to break a pane of glass. Sometimes it Bielak that. 

[Wulaw Horn 18919]

Jake is hopelessly bad with 2 strikes. 

[Hornsbay22 452]

Jake just looks like he has zero approach in the box.
