Gee, Gibson and Slegers lined up for the rest of the series

 

Nope. Gee, Gibson, Santana and Berrios. It's a five game series.
 

I get not loving Melville but what are they supposed to do? They don't have starting pitching depth and it's seven games in five days. You're going to pull up two guys from AAA. In my mind we were playing with house money the minute we got a nice outing out of Sledgers.

  • My vantage point for today's games. $60 total for both. That's a real fire sale.

    And that might explain Gimenez's inclusion in the lineup for today. Got ourselves a Giminy-Gee-villickers combo to look forward to.

    Sounds like a couple of British poets.

Triple A filler game, with the wild card begging you to come and get it.

If you're going to do it against one team, the White Sucks are it. Let's get to that pen!

 

I figure 5 innings with under 4 given up by Melville is about as good as can be expected.

We need to get Rodon out of the game and get to their bullpen - maybe a 9 run inning in the 9th today

And I just saw that smirk on the replay. God that was hideous.

 

I think Hosken meant we might see Gee, Gibson, and Slegers before this day is over.

 

And Slegers is off the roster, now.  I hate to just give a game away with pitching that is filler, and not a prospect, even. Neither of these guys are. And let's face it. 27 is not still young in the scope of youngness for MLB players. 27 is still hoping and dreaming, with time running out and Korea calling.

That is 3 out of every 5 games for this team.

I'd like to forget him for the rest of the season .... but..... 6 homers given up in the last 8 innings is hard to forget.

 

And no one is yet warming up in the bp

 

Throwing in the towel. Depressing.

I hope to someday see a complete list of the pitchers that have come through the organization since since our last division title, purely for the comedy of briefly recalling the catastrophes, flameouts, and crushed hopes and dreams.

That means he's not due to give up another homer all year --- sequencing!

Not trade Garcia?

 

Trade for someone's 4/5th starter?

I predicted Turley would be one of those AAAA player when he was called back up. I guess I am definitely right. Turley does not belong in the big leagues. Melville might have better stuff than Turley. Both are just AAAA players like ABW.

Well, Twins are pecking away, slowly.....

Garver swinging at a pitch above his head.

I think rather they know they still need a bp into the night.

Hey! We got a run in with bases loaded 1 out. We're getting better at this!

Sac flies aren't going to win this game.

Ok, peck, peck now we need a BOOM!!!!! bust   :cry:

We've had some odd delays this year, and here's another one.

Rain is an odd delay? Or the timing of it?

I was referring to the part where they stopped the game to flatten the mound at the request of the White Sox.
