Chris Young may have some life left in him in the pen.

Dyson never goes on 1st pitch so there is never a need to pitch out on that 1st pitch.

I love his speed and base stealing ability but 17 for 23 in steals isn't a stellar steal% for 2016. He was 86.4% before this year

Wang now 19 ER and 39 baserunners in last 20.1

At least in Sept we won't see him with the call ups.

Man. Alex. :(

did anyone else hear hud talking about alex around the 7th inning? Said he hasn't approached hitting coach and that you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink,

It's like a never ending joke. We've played 110+ games, he's barely hitting .200 and continues to be an everyday player. I mean sit him down a few games for gods sake.

It's amazing he doesn't get booed

wetwillie · « **Reply #65658 on:** August 10, 2016, 11:31:27 PM »

Anyone that defends him at this point has to be related to him

kim carnes · « **Reply #65659 on:** August 10, 2016, 11:35:01 PM »

Any respectable male fan would boo him

33 K's last 104 PA. And that stat just doesn't even tell how bad he looks on his strikeouts. Pedro Cerano even cringes on how clueless Gordo is

Im considering going to a few more games this year just so I can boo Gordon.

Never in doubt guys.

maybe they stretched it out too long, or maybe they didn't, but you can't argue that it isn't better to get the win off of matt albers than off of any other pitcher.

Currently winning at a 75% clip since Rally Mantis. With Duffy winning tomorrow we will be at 80%. Have to keep the little guy off the DL.

Yeah, that was really good. I only got to listen to the 9th though because I was golfing at Prairie Dunes. #wackybrag

Amazingly when you bring it up it sounds so humble
