GDT: Blue Birds @ Orange Birds

[Inklink]

Ang's cousin has been pretty good, yeah. 6 RBI now.

[BigCecil]

Have to give Estrada some credit for hanging in there after the first couple innings. Tough line up.

[Governator]

If Estrada was the opposing pitcher Buck would be losing his s*** with these pop flys.

[Angrioter]

Come on Estrada

[Orgfiller]

A soft infield liner from Goins? Expected

 

If that's Tampa it drops in for a bloop double lol.

[RealAccountant]

If that's Tampa it drops in for a bloop double lol.

 

That is what rays baseball is all about.

[Deadpool]

After that 1st inning I did not see Estrada going 5...

[Angrioter]

Thanks Estrada................

Let's score some runs

[o2cui2i]

as bad as the first inning was being down 3-1 isn't terrible. Just need to get Jimenez out of the game so they can get a shot at their pen.

Yeah Ive been pretty critical of Estrada - mostly because the Lind trade still bothers me - but he has been pretty decent today and for much of the year so far. Tough for fly ball pitchers to keep the ball in the park over here in the AL East though.

[Daniel Labude]

This is a huge inning for us.

[Laika]

Nice job by Marco Estrada battling through 5 innings despite not really being very talented.

 

Give me five bulldogs like Estrada on the mound and I'll give you a AAA championship.

[JohnnyLonghorn]

Donaldson is such a good hitter

LOL...cruel but funny.

[Laika]

I still really like Estrada in relief though, where he can throw an ungodly amount of changeups. That's a meal ticket pitch.

 

I hate the portions of the games he starts where he's either a) trying to establish his fastball, or seeing a lineup for a second or third time (so in other words, the entire game).

[Deadpool]

Can we see a replay of that? Didn't look like he committed at all there.

[Angrioter]

lol Russell

[Candy Maldonado]

no replay?

[CJ-Freeway]

f***ing ump

[Dylan]

Looked like an obvious strike to me

[ElNik2013]

Strike 1 was EE's pitch to hit but didn't even swing at it.

[HERPDERP]

leaving Francis in?!

[Trouba95]

Why Francis? Are we down by five runs?

[MatBarnes]

Why the f*** Francis garbage in a close game

[Angrioter]

DFA Francis

[Deadpool]

Yes Buck and Tabby, tell us just how great a job Estrada did...

[Trouba95]

Gibby blows another game.

[guylaroche5]

up by 5 runs = use osuna

 

high leverage situation = put in francis because yolo

[Candy Maldonado]

lol Francis in a 2 run game

[CJ-Freeway]

f*** f***ing gibbons
