April 23, 201313 yr I originally thought the same thing, but we've only played like 4 games in the last 10 days. Good point, and an off day tomorrow. Still, I'd like to see him go nine.
April 23, 201313 yr Wow, KC is making the pre-season pundits looks foolish. I'm sure we'll see him in the 8th.
April 23, 201313 yr Corriea through 7, 5 hits, 1 BB, 5 K's, 2 ER. Not too shabby, KC. Pitch count under 90. The only way Gardy takes him out in the 8th is if the Twins bat around and he freezes stiff on the bench.
April 23, 201313 yr Good point' date=' and an off day tomorrow. Still, I'd like to see him go nine.[/quote'] Yeah, I would too...as would Bert.
April 23, 201313 yr I originally thought the same thing, but we've only played like 4 games in the last 10 days. Is it healthy/wise for a reliever to pitch/warm-up in both games of a split doubleheader? I honestly don't know, but they may want to avoid the bullpen just for that.
April 23, 201313 yr Alright, let's get some runs. Judging from the dugout response, looks like Corriea might be done.
April 23, 201313 yr aaaaaaand I'm wrong- Bert says they are taking him out. Dick says the pen needs work. Did I mention I'm happy with Dozier???
April 23, 201313 yr Andy just gave him the pat on the back... And does it look like Gardy has found himself a leadoff hitter?
April 23, 201313 yr Is it healthy/wise for a reliever to pitch/warm-up in both games of a split doubleheader? I honestly don't know, but they may want to avoid the bullpen just for that. Who knows. Pitchers sure seem fragile in this era.
April 23, 201313 yr Dozier's looking good. And it isn't just his hair. Hey now...there are 12 yr olds reading this site.
April 23, 201313 yr aaaaaaand I'm wrong- Bert says they are taking him out. Dick says the pen needs work. Did I mention I'm happy with Dozier??? Me too, Big Dog. Guess that's why we're making the big bucks!
April 23, 201313 yr aaaaaaand I'm wrong- Bert says they are taking him out. Dick says the pen needs work. Did I mention I'm happy with Dozier??? I have to question this - you have a starter tonight (Pelfrey) who has only pitched 12+ innings over 3 starts - you might need the bullpen, a lot of it, tonight.
April 23, 201313 yr Just lost the sound on my MLB.com broadcast. I'm enjoying the game more. Hmmm....
April 23, 201313 yr Yes, but I wouldn't want to paint him. Hey now...there are 12 year olds reading this site.
April 23, 201313 yr Where's the sunshine Ashbury? Whoa!!! My bad. KC seems to be doing all right without it, but one mustn't tempt fate and assume things will continue well.
April 23, 201313 yr Lesson to be learned: If your starter is pitching effectively and has a low pitch count, you leave him in - you don't pull him just so the bullpen can get some innings.
