June 19Jun 19 Front office has to be happy with the whole Jac situation. Get there last week after the road trip where they brought him up, and the store was loaded out the ass with Jac gear. They’ve had a few signed balls in the other store since he went to AAA, and damn… $200! Higher than the others, by a bit! (It’s for charity, so ok.)
June 19Jun 19 Author One more on Campbell. Quote His glovework has also been less than ideal, to put it mildly. In 471 2/3 innings at second base, he has been credited with -14 Defensive Runs Saved and -8 Outs Above Average, making him one of the worst defenders in the majors this year.

June 20Jun 20 managers just make me so mad. edward cabrera is cruising against the phillies with one out in the 7th. there’s a runner on first with one out after a dribbler turns into an IF single. cabrera retired the next guy, and then gets pulled after 82 pitchers, isibky unhappy with the decision. they then go on to show the manager in the dugout with cabrera, smiling and laughing and praising him for his day, but cabrera shows no emotion. so now they bring a rookie reliever, who gives up a single on his first pitch, then throws a wild pitch to make it 2nd and 3rd with one out, then hits the batter to load the bases. AB still in progress. regardless of the outcome, the manager should be fired between innings for pulling his SP who is cruising, and who desperately needs a win. reliever gives up the tying run, would have given up one or two more on a bad throw but the ball hit the 1B umpire and stayed in the infield.
June 20Jun 20 26 minutes ago, Derka said: managers just make me so mad I feel ya, man. I’ve been quite frustrated with our managers decisions this spring so far. A couple were understandable, because what else could you do. But a ton of pitching choices were absolute head scratchers. Pulling starters for a pinch runner, with 3 innings or better (a few times). Now don’t get me wrong, those managers are paid a lot of money to make those decisions, and they have way more info than we do looking in from the outside, but some calls you don’t need that info to realize it’s WTF time. There have been blatantly bad decisions made, before they even came to fruition on the field. A week ago with Richardson(?) maybe. First relief afterncoming up, blows a good lead and costs the game. A couple days later, same. exact. damn. thing. Granted, we DFA’d him the day after the last one. I mean hot fucking garbage. That manager didn’t know he didn’t have the juice to be a reliever? The pitching coach didn’t see it? Was the first time nerves with a big league start and a commanding lead? Why not yank that guy as soon as he started struggling? We had plenty of help available. Granted a few weren’t much better, depending on which version of their-self showed up that game, but still better than giving up handfuls of runs and loading them up. Now I know you can’t always just yank a guy at the first sign of trouble, and sometimes you gotta let them settle down and pitch. He never settled down. Bigger deal than Cole’s shoulder was him getting the DFA. Cole’s in better shape than first thought, no surgery required, probably out 6-8 weeks. Not perfect, but our starters are going to be ok for now. But yeah, sometimes you have to risk the ego bruise and mental game and yank the guy. They’re big boys, top level, and should be able to understand as a professional. Doesn’t mean they like it, of course. Other decisions were clinging to a few guys that needed a AAA reset in a bad way. They just weren’t producing for shit, and nothing was helping. I don’t think it was on-field effort, but neither were exceptional in the field to make up for it, and were JAG’s out there. (Melendez, Renfroe, and they’re still hanging on Massey for now.) We could use a minor upgrade or two, no pun intended, but maybe finally some pieces are coming together. Not sure they will get to the post-season at this rate, I thought the same last season too, but the break is coming up before long and maybe they can get competitive for a second half push to the finish line. If not, it happens. Unfortunately a lot more times for a small market team, but at least we aren’t nickel and diming the payout. Still got a bit of hardware over these past 56 years. Either way, saw some ball, had some grub, drank some beers.

June 20Jun 20 That 3rd pitch was the 9th of the inning. the previous 8 were all strikes. not as bad as Jim Joyce, but not sure how often Yamomoto will get another chance at the immaculate inning that Marvin Hudson blew tonight. ABS can’t get here soon enough Edited June 20Jun 20 by UTexasFight

June 21Jun 21 misiorowski went 6 perfect innings and then sat for ~24 minutes as the brewers brought nine to the plate. he came out for the 7th, walked buxton on four pitches, then gave up a weird, sort of pop up bomb to wallner. snaps what had been the second longest no-hit streak to start a career since 1920. he was seriously filthy tonight, he just lost it after the layoff. his future looks super bright. hopefully he and skenes go head to head at some point this year.
