It'd be nice to make this kid throw a lot of pitches early. Get him out after a few innings and rack up those bullpen innings again for the Dodgers. Do that, win today and this series could be had tomorrow.

[1992casey]

English speakers are likely to be tempted to pronounce Julio's last name as you-REE-ahs. That makes his name sound like high-nitrogen fertilizer. It's probably a whole lot better to stick to the Spanish oo-REE-ahs.

[1992casey]

FSWI will be picking up Vin Scully's broadcast in the third inning tonight.

[brewcrewdue80]

Braun Lucroy triple slash lines: .310-313/.371-.369/.519-.524 Pretty amazing

[pacopete4]

I don't understand why you don't tell Scooter to bunt there. Lefty on lefty. At least give us a shot with a guy on third.

[jerichoholicninja]

I've got to say that what I've seen from Urias so far is less than impressive.

[adambr2]

Longest tenured veteran here and you pull that with 1st and 3rd and 1 out. Terrible.

[adambr2]

I don't know if he just can't bunt or if the opportunity never really presented itself last year but Gennett had 0 sac bunts last year. 8 in 2014 though, so you'd think he can bunt.

 

My guess is they just felt a lot better about Scooter swinging away against a lefty than they did with Broxton /Davies, which I can understand. Scooter has had some success against LHP this year.

[jason21nl]

I'm just going to say it...I find Scully incredibly boring.

[jerichoholicninja]

I'm just going to say it...I find Scully incredibly boring.

 

Agreed. I can't imagine listening to one guy try and be clever for 9 innings every night.

 

I would still take him over Uecker. At least Vin talks about the game that's going on.

8ks to 1bb in 5IP? Guy is 19 mind you. Youngest at the moment in all of MLB

The stats look good but I expected a mid to upper 90's fastball and he had little control.

Effectively wild?

[adambr2]

You can just see us coming out of this with only the 1 run.

[dacrew101]

maybe the dodgers will trade us their farm for braun and lucroy after the game

[MrTPlush]

It appears their offense could use it tonight.

[adambr2]

Can't watch, but on the radio they made it sound like Carter would have been safe at home if he would have gone in with a half decent slide.

[AdvantageSchneider]

Maybe, he kind of pulled his leg up and tried to tag home with his hand for some reason. It would have been close. He should have been out by a good amount but the throw from Seager was pretty bad.

[jerichoholicninja]

No. The only chance he had was to run through and not slide at all.

[DougJonesChangeUp]

Carter has a lot of weight hitting the ground, didn't get glide on that slide.

 

Davies pitching like a stud. Greg Maddux-esque.

[markedman5]

Davies command is just unreal.

 

So much fun to watch him paint with 4 pitches.

[1992casey]

Davies pitching like a stud. Greg Maddux-esque.

A recent opponent broadcaster kept saying something like, "We're not comparing him to Maddux" over and over. In other words, he was comparing Davies to Maddux.

[jerichoholicninja]

I hate the word clutch and everything that goes with it but other than his grand slam against the Dbacks Lucroy has been so unclutch his whole career.

[AdvantageSchneider]

That's exactly what I was thinking. Everything(except the first AB to Turner) on the black and with movement. And some really defensive swings too.
