You'll burn your bullpen out if you panic every time a starter starts giving up some hard contact.  The bullpen is at risk of showing signs of overusage.

I agree with giving guys that have been in the league a little bit some extra rope but Priesters so young and I just don't know that you want to push the envelope too hard yet.

Send him to Vegas or the Caymans for a week. He's needs a complete reframing.

And now they're best hitter gets to the plate with two ducks on the pond.

Everybody we face has better hitting mechanics than we do.

So much good contact with the Twins and now the Orioles. I’m jealous. I’m still twitching from the 18 hits I witnessed on Saturday

Cubs blow another ninth inning lead 

At no point this season will the brewers be ahead of the cubs in the standings.  I have zero doubts about that  

[yourout]

Wouldn't mind seeing Uribe add a cutter or a four seamer to go with his sinker and slider.

Something that he can work the top of the zone with when guys are sitting on pitches down.

[RobertCrawley]

So we're stuck with Levering until the end of our lives?

Having coach hitting at the high school level and working with a lot of young kids there's things I like to see and obviously it's different at the MLB level where those guys all have superior hand eye coordination but swing paths and the mechanics of hitting are things that tend to jump out at me.

[yourout]

Alright..

Thank you for pitching to him.

[treego14]

Willie Mays Contreras!

[Gump]

William is a monster. LFG!!

 

[folly412]

Billy's heating up.  There's a big positive for our offense.

Chourio's struggles continue. We know what he's capable of but this is a good test of the 21 year olds mental toughness.

I can't believe they pitched to him. 

Granted the Orioles are pretty bad but any coaching staff worth a lick would have advanced scouted this and just handed him first base.

Explains the 15-30.

Always solid to start the 9th with a 4 pitch walk when you take a late 1 run lead. 

[RobertCrawley]

ugly.

Baltimore says "hold my beer" and tries to bunt.

[RobertCrawley]

Does the number of throws to first restart after a change of batter?
