Was worried about this Series.
Frustrating start.
We need to fix Jack fast.

 

[biggunsbob]

Carpenter is some kind of funk in the batters box.

Kaboom 3 run jack by Greene picks Carpenter up. Deep cf

4-3 now.

 

[biggunsbob]

Come on Jack bear down !
So frustrating.
Going to have pull Jack early it looks like.
Had batter 0-2. Clown show.

 

[biggunsbob]

Jack has been shit

 

[biggunsbob]

Carpenter. 251
Tork .225.

They both need to start hitting soon again

 

[biggunsbob]

Jack has been shit

Agree. His body language is awful . I find it strange that Harris likes him so much

 

[biggunsbob]

This is why is really wanted to sweep the Pirates last night. I knew Tampa bay would give us issues. Hopefully we bounce back the next two games. Just feel like we gave that game away in extra’s yesterday after coming back and tying it late.

 

[biggunsbob]

Toledo has 11 runs tonight. Vierling is 0-4 batting .163 now.

 

[biggunsbob]

Meadows very nice swing ! 9-4 now.
Baez sac fly 9-5. Really needed a hit there.
Sweeney does what he normally does with runners on
Swings right over the pitch and strikeouts.
Another Terrible at bat by Sweeney.

 

[biggunsbob]

Jack
2.1 innings 8 earned runs. Era now 4.83.

 

[biggunsbob]

Hernandez another pitcher like Jack. When he can’t find the strike zone his body language betrays him.
He Gets 2 outs and cant get a clean inning. 10-5 now.
Gets next batter 0-2 and throws a pitch over the plate too much.
STUPID PITCHING 11-5….He is terrible. I guess it good to find out early he stinks.

 

[tomdalton22]

the worst part of Jack's 2.2 inning "gem" is it is taxing the bull pen the day after the double header. His outing could be a big reason for a Rays sweep this weekend.

Keith now 0-4 batting lead off tonight.

Don’t worry we have SGL pitching Saturday!
Probably have to be Mize on Sunday.

 

[biggunsbob]

My guess is Olson will pitch against the A’s next week.

 

[biggunsbob]

Recently.

Mets have lost 7 in a row.
Yanks lost 6 in a row, and 7 of last 8.

 

[biggunsbob]

Hate wasting Greene’s 2 homer day in a loss.
Good for his stats though.
381 feet.

 

[biggunsbob]

Carpenter needs a day off. That was bad.
