PLEASE don't take Randy out

Dobnak dealing. 

 

Like 70 pitches, and he's not slowing down. Why not keep putting him out there?

At this rate, Dobnak should be able to go 7 innings, which I believe will be a first for a starter this year.

Not sure I can stay but checking in. Watching, but not every AB, is Williams really throwing that well? Or are we just having bad AB's?

 

Some of his pitches have looked pretty good.

And I wonder if Dobnak doesn't deserve the 7th inning

How far is Dobnak going to be stretched?

A slump buster for arraez

Hey! One finally fell in for Arraez!

Couldn't keep Arraez hitless forever!

THERE's our Luis Arraez again.

Very Carew hit, there. Now steal third and home!!

Williams has been very, very good.

Stallings is also very, very good behind the plate.

Looks like Stashak is getting the 7th, even though Dobnak has plenty more in the tank, from what I can tell...

Really think Dobbie should start the 7th. Can help rest the pen a bit too.

 

Williams has been very, very good.

 

We're making a lot of pitchers look very good these days.

 

I wonder if the Pittsburgh gun is slow. It's saying about 91-92 on the FB, but it seems to get on the hitters really fast. Sneaky fast? Or maybe a few ticks faster than the gun?

Modern baseball stinks. Dobnak should be in there still

Another gem play

Shoot! Great pen, but I would have gone 1 more for Dobnak. Throwing great, good pitch count, rest at least one more arm.

Morneau with the Astros shade!

i like stashak, but Dobnak deserved another inning out there

SLEESTAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now to heat up the bats and get a couple insurance runs

SLEESTAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think he's a keeper

I agree that Dobnak should have been sent out for the 7th. But Stashak definitely helped quell any potential anger with Rocco’s decision.

Not Williams? Good.

Duffey/Rogers shutdown?

Duffey/Rogers shutdown?

Yes, please.

Agreed. But I expected Stashak to do that. NOT arguing with Rocco as I get it. But our depth has diminished somewhat with IL stunts. Could have another bullpen game in the next few days, potentially. Just like the idea of saving another arm from pitching tonight.

 

Small quibble I know! Lol

Agree with Morneau. HP ump has been excellent.
