too much focus on trying to be clever, not enough on being accurate
No problem. I made a mistake once.

Meanwhile I'm liking what Otto is doing.

I sure wish IKF could hit with power. He gets bat on ball almost every time.
I figured after swinging axes all off season he would come in with some power this year

I would like to say, on July 25 and July 27 I mentioned us acquiring Glen Otto in a trade with the Yankees. In a sense I’m glad we got him because he was the one pitcher who stood out to me personally because of his K/9 and his low ERA and his low ranking in the organization top prospects.. (only 30th) figured we could sneak him in a deal. I’m hoping this is the start of good things for Otto.

Man Andy Ibanez at it again. So glad he got a chance this year. Before the season I was hoping he would catch on as a utility player then make his way into the everyday line up later in the season. Nice to see him playing well

Between Allard, Dunning, Hearn, Latz, and Otto, I think we don't need Arihara in the rotation, unless they want to pair him up with someone to limit their innings. They could even go with a six man rotation for September once they can increase roster size a tad.

I think the front office should go with what we have in the rotation in 2022. There is no use signing a stop gap type starter.

As of now this has been a fantastic debut
It is a good thing Woodward turned to the pen or we might have fooled around and won this game.

Will Kyle Cody ever pitch again? I have not heard anything about him in months it seems.

I understand Otto is young.. but damn. Only 73 pitches? Leave him in there for one last inning.
