Kyle Gibson vs Luis Castillo

[BSLSteveBirrer]

I feel like we have a solid west coast trip coming up!

[BaltBird 24]

Seattle and San Diego gonna be a tough trip. Seattle has great pitching and they're a hot team. Obviously San Diego loaded with talent. Be happy with a .500 trip between those two then take care of business VS Oakland.

[NewMarketSean]

Feels like we face a sub-4.00 ERA pitcher every night.

 

And I know we just faced two SP's against Houston with ERAs above 4.

[You Play to Win the Game]

Seattle is 23-10 since 7/1.

careful now or JA will ban you for spouting facts....lol

This is going to be a tough series to win but it's doable.  Get the one tonight and then split the final 2.

What's going to happen when we play the Pardres and Johnny Boy's don't mention Manny Machado policy comes into play?

 

"Now at bat San Diego 3rd Baseman #13.  #13 has been with the Padres for the past 5 years, prior to that he played a few months for the Dodgers.  We aren't really sure what he was up to before that"

Can you imagine Brown going, "here's Manny now for his first at bat...amazing how so much has changed since the Orioles traded him. A lot of losses and lean years but at least it ultimately paid off."  Again, an accurate statement but Angelos' head would literally explode off his shoulders and Kevin would be gone the next morning.

Mullins CF
Mountcastle 1st
Frazier 2nd
Urias 3rd
Cowser LF

[CantonJester]

Mullins being activated is fantastic news. 

[85Knight]

Mullins being activated is fantastic news.

I'm nervous. He's key to us going from very good to great. Offensively and defensively.

Why Cowser over McKenna? Cowser may be the future but the guy has simply not played well while McKenna has been a very solid fourth outfielder

I think they like the progress he has made behind the scenes. I wouldn’t be surprised if Hays is placed on the IL to make room for Hicks.

That is likely so......but when does that translate to progress on the scene?

 

My issue is how'd I fee if I was McKenna? I'd be pissed.

GLAD TO SEE KEVIN BROWN BACK IN THE BOOTH!  WELCOME BACK KEV!

Sure, I think anyone being sent down isn’t likely to be happy. Look at Nick Vespi the past couple years.

This front office is very smart, they wouldn’t leave him on the major league roster if they didn’t think it would pay off.

OKAY, Brach...relax dude...relax.  Not used to being THE color guy.  

[BaltBird 24]

I'm OK with Brach. He's not Ben or Palmer, but he's new at it. It's definitely a struggle for Deveraux.

[fishteacher]

Already shit umpiring.
