Take him out. I’m serious. Take Sproat out. He’s not ready. Take him out.

I’ve seen enough. Sproat may help later, but we have too many quality arms in AAA to watch him struggle at this level. I hope Gasser starts in his place next week.

Seems odd to me you'd start Quero behind the dish with a rookie pitcher.

He has given up 5 runs...yet it should maybe be 2-3 if Perkins and Frelick make plays that should've been outs 

 

I think Quero being back there is a double whammy with this start, too.  Sproat isnt close woth any secondary stuff and that is killing him this start

We're going to need Sproat. Send him out in the second and let him work through it.

He’s working through it, all right.

I heard somewhere that Sproat is a ground ball pitcher.

When he is on, yes.  Just zero command and I dont think quero has any idea on how to sequence pitches with Sproat, who is better than what he's shown today.  His sinker isnt sinking because he's overthrowing it

Should have been 3 runs. Terrible outfield read by Perkins and an in the glove ball at the wall by Sal.

We're going to need him. He'll need to get it figured out. He has good stuff, but not overpowering stuff. He needs to hit his spots to be effective, like he did in spring ball. It looks like the big league excitement got to him. Let's hope he settles in as the year goes on.

Don’t blame them for terrible control on the mound.
