Logan Webb
RHP
12-8, 2.97 ERA, 144 SO


Webb with the rare #weaklink start. 40 pitches through 2, already given up 4 hits and 2 runs.

Good news: 4 run second including a Bartbomb.

4-2 good guys but this game feels like a shitshow.

 

[tzill]

Excellent 7 pitch bottom of the third for Webby. He's looking like he might have righted the ship.

 

[tzill]

Barts second AB he absolute SMOKES a double.

The boy is en fuego.

 

[tzill]

63 pitches through 4 for Webb.

Still 4-2 good guys.

 

[tzill]

82 pitches through 5 for Webb. Still 4-2

Bart due up fourth T6

 

[tzill]

so of course the Gs go 1-2-3....B6 now.

 

[tzill]

Webb 91 pitches through 6.

Bartman fly out to open the 7th. Bum.

Still 4-2

 

[tzill]

102 through 7 for Webb. Wonder if Kap tries to get another couple outs from him???

 

[Stokes1931]

Villar with a double and homer #5 making it 5-2, and raising his average to .228.

The kids will be all right.

 

[tzill]

VR with a solo bomb T8

5-2 good guys

 

[tzill]

Bart now 3-4 with a single in the 9th. His fly ball out was smoked.

dude is LOCKED IN

 

[Stokes1931]

Bart now 3-4 with a single in the 9th. His fly ball out was smoked.

dude is LOCKED IN

BA up to .233. Not great, but way better than the .150 when he was sent down to AAA.

 

[Stokes1931]

Is Yaz hurt, or has the league just figured him out? He may not even hit .200 this year, and several years ago he was on the verge of becoming a star.

 

[tzill]

10 pitch save for Doval.

 

[tzill]

Takaways for 2023:

1. Bart is a piece, and potential all-star
2. Webb is an anchor
3. Doval is a closer
4. VR might be a piece
5. Brinson might be a piece
6. Joc is worth bringing back

 

[tzill]

BA up to .233. Not great, but way better than the .150 when he was sent down to AAA.

.727 OPS.

I could see him getting up to .800 this year.
