Another ******** strike call on Vlad favoring Lynn

Adrenaline boost let Manoah finish his pitches better

Need to actually score some runs here

Yes. But got someone up just in case

Get someone up. Reese is calling so many sliders that just aren't good yet

Eric Pardinho

Was that him. I thought it was Anderson for some reason lol

Vlad 107 mph line drive out

From the game day it looks like First inning went quick with 3 balls in play for outs. 10 pitches 3 balls 2nd innings was the trouble. - 4 pitch walk only 1 close pitch - K on 5 pitches, only 1 ball not close to the zone (wild pitch) - double on 5 pitches. 3 look pretty much over the middle of the plate - HR on 2 pitches. Both over the middle essentially - K on 3 pitches down in the zone - Walk on 4 pitches 3 on the corner - HBP on 8 pitches. 5 of the first 6 were down in the zone then went high - K on 4 pitches up in the zone and on the corner 3rd inning looks to be top form. - K on 5 pitches all on the outside or inside part of the plate - ground out on 2 pitches top of the zone - K on 4 pitches all on the corner or top of the zone So 11 pitches 2 Ks and 0 balls 4th inning looks really great as well. Struck out all 3 on 16 pitches. 5 balls and only 2 weren't close to strikes 5th inning has a 7 pitch single on a pop up and a 2 pitch HBP. He left and the RP allowed the runs on a flyball, wild pitch, and homerun. So 82 pitches and 55 strikes. With a lot of the balls close to the zone or on the corner. Not a lot of crazy wild balls. Most pitches he has pitched i think since going back down. Can't tell the pitch types though

Wasn't shelled at all. Was a much better performance

4. All pretty hittable fastballs though

Class A Short Season was removed

The GCL and AZL start at the end of June

Beltre, Machado, and de Castro are at extended spring training. At least Beltre is for sure. May or may not see at rookie ball this year Estiven Machado (I think this is him) has filled out a lot it appears Instagram WWW.INSTAGRAM.COM

So it comes down to how we define solid. Which of course we disagree lol

Yep. Velocity down and slider command wasn't good. Needs to clean up the slider for sure

It was. He wasn't pitching bad

Need to watch better. Hit Mcguire's glove on all 3 homers. 1 of which was 6 inches off the plate. Problem was it was all on offspeed pitches which might have been questionable pitch selections. He gave up 1 other hit and that pitch was also off the plate. It amounted to bad pitch calling and good hitting on pitches that weren't bad, but weren't great. Now his velocity was down a little and he had a few issues with the mound it appeared and he got hit by a line drive Overall a solid outing with areas that need improvement

Pretty much

Very disappointed in the pitch calling all night Manoah needs to get the slider going for sure though

#3 is the biggest farce ever concocted to use as a reason to not have issues with the managing, which has been horrendous to say the least. It has statistically cost the team multiple wins this week based on #1 alone. #2 you only do again if you want a weak non reality based argument to support Montoyo. In reality though there haven't been many decisions playing time wise that would be put on him...is Panik going to start at SS for Bo because he moonwalked on a homerun, no. If we had a healthy Springer to start the year, yeah that might be a little evident on playing time decisions, but for the most part it sorted itself out in the OF and for the most part DH. You, me, even Spanky could make these decisions and they would be the same. What is most impacted by a manager is his bullpen decisions and usage. Montoyo has been one of the worst possible in this category, especially after we lost 3 or 4 RPs. Sucks to be put in that position because of injuries, but he has failed enormously making these decisions this month. Cost the team 3-4 wins in basically 2 weeks. We shouldn't be looking at it if manager X would would have won those games, but rather would any manager have made better choices at key moments particularly with the bullpen. Would a different manager use Romano more wisely for save situations in the absence of anyone else currently that can do it? Would a different manager not throw Chatwood to the wolves with no command to prove a point and lose a game? Would a different manager not use Dolis to get a save when Romano is twirling his thumbs ready to go? Would another manager try Chatwood? Would another manager try bunting st the failed rate and failed execution that Monotyo has done resulting in a loss at least? Montoyo needs to go and you try and get someone who you think will make better choices

So we lost cause Montoyo was proving a point to Chatwood...really

Vlad's defense has been great at 1B

Vlad is being robbed with some good defense recently

Funny thing is, MILB went back to 9 inning double headers this season
