They’re using pitch com aren’t they?  There shouldn’t be any signs to steal.

There are other things you can pick up in, I guess. 

But it's one of those "impossible to disprove" conjectures.

I think Freddy nibbled and threw some bad pitches the Dodgers punished. Did good to hear down for the final two outs.

And Collins delivers!!

Don't shoot the messenger Dillard said it but a sudden knowing what's coming could a clue. 

Not sure where Dillard got that feeling. Sure looked more to me like Freddy just had a really bad inning.

[yourout]

If the Crew was in a must win game who would you start on the mound?

[adambr2]

Did he actually throw the ball back on the field? I never saw that. I don’t know why’d you’d make a great catch and then do that.

All hands on deck with short leashes. It’s probably still Freddy to start . Maybe Miz.

It's early but the best track record for me is Woody.i still trust him.

Peralta can be so damn frustrating 

His highs & lows are so extreme 

He’s been excellent this year but I honestly won’t miss him when he’s gone 

I prefer our young pitchers with less talent but more consistency 

I’m aware we are playing the world champion Dodgers, but the walk to open the bottom of the 3rd inning - followed by a batting practice pitch to Ohtani - followed by his inability to gather himself - is far too familiar

Perkins on base machine

No way Miz he has a looong waterbag warmup.

Dillard talks a lot but says very little worth hearing

Bad inning and constantly working behind in the count.  He just kept putting himself in situations where he’s gotta throw a strike.

Collins is a gamer like Frelick … & Turang … & Durbin

I could see that if he’s still fully locked in at the end of the year. Right now I’d still like to see a little more a sample coming back from the major injury.

An opener.  Probably Zastrzyny if he's back and healthy.

[adambr2]

Dang, would’ve loved to get one more.

[wildcat83]

Nice bounce back inning by Freddy

[Bulldogboy]

Nice job there Freddy

We really have a nice young nucleus. With Miz and Chourio we have future star power to go with guys that are really solid pieces.

 

[Brian]

Contreras got screwed on strike 2 it was 3" off the plate. 

[yourout]

Out.

I don’t think you’re going to find any young pitchers with less talent and more consistency.

I guess the best example would have been Tobias Myers, last year, and now he can’t even crack the rotation.

Consistency in young pitchers is tough to come by.

Freddy is 11-4 with a 2.88 ERA. I know there’s a recency bias here today, but he’s been pretty dang consistent this year.

[adambr2]

Thought Jackson was safe on the initial play but clearly out on replay.

Yeah, and Freddy hasn’t been getting borderline pitches today. Frustrating.

[yourout]

Last hitter for Freddy.

[adambr2]

Probably just be happy with that from Freddy today and not try to push it.
