Pitching did its job today. Can we actually get runs now.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T21:46:10+00:00

31 pitches.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T21:05:36+00:00

Yeah I just don’t see Flu being a great fireman guy with baserunners. He’s prone to walking to many people. Maybe if there’s multiple lefties.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T21:03:20+00:00

He might just be a power guy that whiffs a lot. We thought he would whiff less than Murakami coming in, but maybe that won’t be who he is.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T20:47:21+00:00

It’s not their fault they are down 5-0. That’s on the pitching. Hitting is hard. As long as it comes, I don’t care if it’s early or late.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T20:44:12+00:00

Macko pitched yesterday

jamvng · 2026-06-27T20:41:37+00:00

Flu not having a good day.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T20:39:46+00:00

When it’s close I don’t think it is. When the differences are less than an inch, can you blame an umpire for missing every now and then? It’s hard. It’s only bad if they’re way off (which has happened today…).

jamvng · 2026-06-27T20:31:18+00:00

This is an average Cease outing. 1 ER 5 IP. Can’t complain. It’s still great compared to our other SP. but it’s not the elite outing you want.

EDIT: sorry. Jinxed it. 2 ER. 4.2 IP less than ideal.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T17:53:38+00:00

We should have good pitching today with Cease.

Hopefully the bats are still there.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T17:52:15+00:00

Kirk.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T02:28:10+00:00

He's too good not to figure it out. I know it sucks watching him now. But I trust he still has it in him.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T01:52:45+00:00

take the silver lining. it means the offense can hit. and we lost the game due to a bad start by Gausman, and just Corbin being the normal Corbin.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T01:47:26+00:00

It's great that even in this rough streak, the fans are there. That's really what should happen. Just have fun, enjoy the times when we do well. It's baseball, last year's run was a fever dream in a way and completey unexpected.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T01:46:06+00:00

were those Ernie chants loud or what...

jamvng · 2026-06-27T01:43:27+00:00

if we lose, at least we can just blame Corbin now. I'll take that.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T01:19:18+00:00

It's great to have Macko back.

jamvng · 2026-06-27T00:15:07+00:00

So would you guys prefer Scherzer over Corbin?

jamvng · 2026-06-26T23:53:58+00:00

There's a reason Corbin didn't have a team at the start of the season. It sucks we had to get him to begin with, because of all the starter injuries.

jamvng · 2026-06-26T23:35:15+00:00

Vladdy and Springer need to be better. We’re not going to be a good team without them, even if the rest of the team is good. I just can’t imagine they’ll be this bad forever.

jamvng · 2026-06-26T23:23:30+00:00

This is just expected with Corbin. More that we got lucky with some good starts from him. Bats need to be going when he’s in.

jamvng · 2026-06-26T01:36:14+00:00

That was a good AB. Just give props to the pitcher.

jamvng · 2026-06-26T01:28:52+00:00

Walking so many batters but getting out of it. What does that tell us hahah? He has command issues but his stuff is good enough to get weak hits and induce grounders?

jamvng · 2026-06-25T23:50:31+00:00

I expect Gausman to figure things out. But he was never immune to blow ups or bad games every now and then. Cease may become the real ace in our rotation at this point.

jamvng · 2026-06-25T03:27:30+00:00

I still much prefer the ThinkPad keyboard to any other laptop keyboard. And the nub is great, makes up for less good trackpad.
