    Scored 19 runs in 3 games and lost them all. Giving up 29 will do that.

    If we give 3 runs in the 1st inning again tonight. Manager Hinch should think about pitching Pressley 1st inning :)

    1st: Osuna
    2nd: Pressly
    3rd: Whatever other reliever is most reliable
    4th-9th: The "starter" (or, in this case, finisher I guess?)

    The "backwards" game LOL. Not advising this, just saying it is a possibility.

    I'm getting a little tired of these first innings.

    It's funny that Nelson Cruz seemed to get a free pass after he was caught cheating, at least not nearly as vilified as some of the other sluggers

    And here we go again sigh

    If these early season sample sizes turn into an accurate representation of our strengths and weaknesses then Luhnow and Co. are going to be busy come late June-July trying to solidify the pitching staff. Offense has been fine, but my goodness the pitching is becoming concerning beyond Verlander and Cole.

    Easy groundball with nobody there to field it...tight walk...Crawford Box Special

    ****.

    That's 18 1st inning runs in the last 4 games.

    The offense SHOULD be able to do damage against Pineda. Although I’m not sure Miley will be able to keep us in the game. Here’s hoping he can string together some scoreless innings.

    Vilification is reserved for players that matter.
