Solid win against a team we should beat. Outstanding pitching and timely hits by those who generally carry the team.

Bullpen Bashers? Anyone,anyone?

Oh, and Fudge Nuggets is a pussy.

Whether or not you believe Giles has struggled (i.e., more than just a little worse than last year) is dependent on how much meaning you place on the difference between his ERA and his fielding independent stats.  The strongest argument is that he hasn't been unlucky on contact - as xwOBA shows he's been hit plenty hard this year.  However, people tend to confuse the "expected" statcast stats as being predictive of future performance when they are no more predictive than FIP.  Even when you filter out bad luck/poor defense, pitchers simply don't have much control over what happens to the ball when it's put in play.  It's a marginal skill and ~80% of what separates good pitchers from bad pitchers is the ability to miss bats and limit walks.

95% of this message board was fed up with Giles two months ago. He did nothing extraordinary between then and his latest fuck up that got him sent down. 

What “advanced metric” justifies that? The guy can’t get the job done. End of story.

Go fuck yourself with a 12 lb sledgehammer. Fuck ass mother fucker. Least I was watching this game to the end.

With your lack of baseball knowledge or insight, I’m surprised you watch at all. You seem more like a Beavis and Butthead type.

Nice all-around effort. DK and the pen got it done. Bregman stayed hot. Let’s keep it rolling tomorrow. 

Jake back to Fresno after the game tonight 

White will be gone after the break and all will be right in the world.

I was damn happy with the shutout, who wouldn’t be?  Then ask for one guy to hit the ball out of the infield when we have 1st and 3rd and no outs means no baseball knowledge? Bitch please.

Go back and watch your Fred McGriff instructional videos. 

keuchel is really turning it around, gaining some momentum for the second half

 

hope fiers gets a huge ovation tomorrow getting his ring

I do too. The way he carried the load in May and June last year was great.  But I have no baseball knowledge so I’m probably just imagining that shit.

I liked old Crime Dog until he went to Atlanta. Hated everyone that played for those shitheads. 

I like that we’ve played the most games in the majors heading in to the All Star break
Red Sox are only 1 behind, but Yankees and Indians are 4 behind.
M’s 2 fewer

Over in the NL, the Cubs have 6 games to make up in the back half compared to the Astros.

If i was to GIVEAWAY a RING to everyone on a DAY i would do it on August 15 at mmp. To make sure i would buy my tickets before monday morning before people knew of my plan.

I feel like there is a hint about something somewhere in here

Nope.. Fiers was a big contributor last season.. and he was the defacto ace in those 2 months. He ate up a lot of innings when the team needed him to do so. 

Kate Upton is pregnant. 

No worries, birth will likely be in offseason. 

God, her tites are going to be massive

I’d expect nothing less.
The rest of those guys taking paternity leave, take notice

I know tucker is the future and #ted but we are a better line up with kemp out there

It’s too bad his arm isn’t good enough for the left side of the infield to get Marwin out of there.

Haha - lilshep needs to make more appearances in this thread.

Haha. Kid has game. They put him on big screen also .

Springer heating up. 

Took Fed an hour to get to third. 

Yeah that was silly with Altuve up next.

I like all the strikeouts by our starting pitchers but they means high pitch counts. Hope the bullpen can last the whole season. 

Cole with a nice low pitch count inning there. Should get through 6 now

Our bullpen has pitched the 2nd fewest innings in the MLB despite playing the most games.

Didn't realize that. It just always seems their pitch counts are in the 90's by the 5th inning.
