Can't do any worse than Heaney!

I think Lorenzen has some potential based on his past record.

He started the season on the IL, but he looked pretty healthy last night.

And I saw Maddox do the bilateral trapezius Vulcan squeeze thing to him last night.

Latz and Evan Carter **** the bed today as did the whole offense

Leclerc has cost us 2-3 games already, and lost his closer spot already. The bright spot in the pen has been Kirby Yates. He took over the closer role this series and saved his first chance, then today when the rangers scored in the top of the 9th he shut down Detroit in the bottom of the 9th to get the win. He’s 2-0 on the year with a save, pitching 7.1 innings giving up only 1 hit so far with a 0.00 ERA. Hopefully he’s found the form he had for the Padres from 2017 to 2019. If so he could be elite.

Another early start today and Leiter on the bump. Let's go!

All these day games can KMA! MLB is fighting for viewership from the working man, and more importantly the young baseball fan....so their plan is to make games as hard to watch as possible. I'd like to get Rob Manfred by the ear for just a couple minutes...

I agree! Putting games on Amazon, Apple+, ESPN4HDsquared, day games, night games has sure made it hard to watch consistently. I think I've been able to catch most of 1 game so far.
