That's the first I heard of a torn tendon hopefully its not fully torn and he only misses to weeks. Losing him until September does not bode well for us.
Maybe its just me but it seems like everytime the crowd at the Keg really gets into the game and gets loud the batter seems to get over anxious and swings at something way out of the zone ala Hardy.
When is the last time Cappy had a good game?? Its pretty sad when you can't count on more then 5 innings from any starter besides Sheets. How is it not time to give Yo and CV a shot in the rotation.
Wow that was disappointing not only did the bp pitcher not even throw anything inside but he had to deal with shadows and it looked like the wind was blowing in.
I thought I remember reading somewhere that he wanted to go to UW was for the academics and that he was a pretty good student. Does this mean he failed classes he needed or just took easy classes that didn't qualify as the minimum standards? I was looking forward to seeing him get playing time so this is disappointing.
It's sad that we are getting smoked by a team that has about 4 reserves starting today. Hopefully the Pirates can hold on they have bases loaded against Howry in the bottom of the 8th.
Not having anyone up in the bullpen or getting anyone up in the bullpen at the first hint of trouble is on Yost though. Not to mention that it is 100 degrees and the bullpen has the next 4 days off. How many games has the exact same thing happened where Yost has sat there with his thumb up his butt with no one up in the pen and his pitcher completely losing it. Its a freaking joke how he uses his pen.
I am sick of Bill and Brian talking about how good this guys stuff is, if it were so good he wouldn't have been pitching in the minors the last couple of years. Call it like it is our offense has sucked today. We are losing to a bunch of backups!
Well according to espn game notes he is not going with the team to Washington but is headed home to see a doctor. It said high ankle sprain which is the slowest healing.
If they played him he could very well be hitting for the record in Milwaukee, but like everyone else has said that team is not good and it would be a PR nightmare. I would love to see him hit it for the record and be booed out of the stadium.
