That's a strike.

Often impossible to know what comments like this refer to unless you are following the board simultaneously with the game.

This dude has a great arm. Jeez.

He has a great arm and when the ball is in the zone good things tend to happen. Unfortunately, you never know where you're going to get a meltdown outing from Megill where he can't find the zone. 

[BruisedCrew]

That call should stand.

If he could get it together consistently he could take Pegeuro spot imo. 

[DuWayne Steurer]

Listening on the radio, the radio guys (who very, very rarely question ball/strike calls) were puzzled how that was called a ball. They're usually pretty benign about borderline calls, preferring (presumably) to not bog down a broadcast with blathering on about bad calls. But that one they were pretty openly critical of.

Megill. Ruh-roh

He's been ok. I'd like to see him develop a cutter.

If the Crew could tack on a couple here, I wouldn't mind sending Megill out there to face 8 & 9 in the order....

His control always scares me. When he can command his pitches he is good. When he can't he can blow leads

I agree about his control. He throws hard but straight.

My point, and maybe it’s just me, is that  I don’t always watch every pitch that closely because I might be doing something else like keeping an eye on another game, working on  a crossword, or whatever. So, when you see a comment like that it has no context. 

[BruisedCrew]

Duran has butterfingers. 
 

Make him pay this time.

I just stepped into the thread and the same could be said about half the comments on this page.

I think it’s you.

Rowdy is hitting .159 this year against the breaking ball.

[CheezWizHed]

Rowdy wanted to hit one... should've walked yet again.

This is me.  But it's fun to try figure out the response to big plays (ike Rowdy's impending HR?)

Monasterio is hitting .105 against the slider.

I did not like the idea of trading Urias and leaving it up to Monasterio, Turang, and Anderson.

Just broaden your definition of impending to include a larger window. Like, the rest of the season.
