Fantastic AB from Brinson.

Worst call ever by DVH.

What happened.

That being said, baseball is a weird sport to follow because I'm excited Brinson is 1/3 (1B) with a SF as that is progress.

Brinson actually fouled off a ton of pitches with 2 strikes got the count to 3-2 and got the game tying Sac Fly. Just missed a homer.

Apparently we just threw out the go ahead run at the plate on a great relay in the 11th. Shuck to Castro to Holaday.

Great call by Geffner.

Yeah, I was actually impressed with that AB......he laid off a lot of pitches that he usually flails at.

And what does he do with his next AB?

Flail at a multitude of pitches outside the zone before striking out...

Brinson has shown improvements of late for whatever its worth. It appears he's really going to survive this without going down.

[Namaste]

Bour came up with 1 out and the winning run on 3B in the bottom of the 15th.

We lost.

Merandy being recalled again according to mish. Just absurd handling of a prospect yet again thisnyear

Will be back down when Wittgren is back next week. Graves also is in ML pen right now

[Nick]

What was up with that Ben Meyer call up? Up 2 weeks was in what 2 games? Pitched scoreless innings then back down. Puzzling.

They needed a RP arm(Cloyd sucks) and Merandy/Meyer are only ones on 40 man. Merandy was getting off DL so Meyer was called up

[Nick]

they needed an arm, but barely used him.

I will flat out say I was wrong when I predicted 35 wins. But I still not sure that they can make 60. The starting pitching has been WAAAAY better than I thought it would be. It's still not great but I was thinking it would be congregate ERA of over 7 or so.

Depends on the trades. But I can see 60 being an over/under if they do ship out all of Realmuto, Bour, Castro, Rojas, Dietrich, Urena, Straily, Barraclough, Ziegler, etc.

Like is this the team Aug 1? Not including potential trade acquisitions.

C - ______, Telis
1B - Cooper, ______
2B - ________
SS - Riddle, Rivera
3B - Anderson
LF - Dean
CF - Brinson, B. Lee
RF - Sierra

SP - Ca. Smith, Chen, Alcantara, pick 2 Richards/D. Peters/Gallen/Neidert
RHP - Steckenrider, Wittgren, E. Hernandez, Guerrero, Merandy/Richards/Meyers/Graves
LHP - Conley, Jarlin, Quijada/Peters/O'Grady

It's pretty ugly, but if they keep Dietrich, Rojas, Urena, and Straily and get a guy or two who can play in the OF, team might be OK

Brinson .302/.319/.674, 2/11 BB/K, 43 AB in June.

It's something.

True if they trade just DD, Bour and Realmuto. 55 may be the ultimate ceiling and thats if no one gets injured.

Denbo would love if he could trade/get something for all of those guys and go with a lineup like that by Aug 1.He is the one who is pushing hard for this "2020" plan. Not sure we trade Rojas or Bour but the others very possible. They are looking for guys they do NOT have to add to the 40 man right away in trades.
