Yeah you are right, I’m sure it would blow the mind of someone who has probably never been in his position! I’m sure Patrick wasn’t trying to walk those guys on purpose. I’m sure he’s more upset about those walks than you are!
Agreed I feel Patrick would have been better settled in if he started this game. I get it he was great out of the pen last postseason but this early in season is not the time to do this. Let the starters start!!!
Just a thought, would it have been feasible to just not bring Freddy out for tge 2nd inning and bring in Mis, Patrick, or Gasser to pitch the rest of game and we could have saved Freddy for game 3? Or is that not a strategy worth trying
Yeah he may look uninspired, but also what do we know? I’m guessing he is trying to work on his changeup and slider. They probably told him to not worry about outcome and just concentrate on getting those pitches over and trying to refine them. Just my guess.
