Great play by Craw

Right forearm tightness for Lyles.

Always hate to hear that, no matter the team.

I think Bochy is too quick on the hook for his starters. The bullpen is going to get worn down by it.

Nah. His starters (save Bum) do not deserve the benefit of the doubt. They are all #5 starters, and should be treated thusly.

But you lean too hard on the bullpen and they are going to wear out. Besides, how do some of these younger guys learn to work through jams if they get the hook every time they first get in one? I think it creates the unconscious thought that they will never be able to get out of one and therefore, get worse as pitchers, not better.

But does that happen?

Did you lose a bet to Stokes and the consequence was you tracking RISP at bats for him?

 

[calsnowskier]

Shawn Michaels would be proud of that exchange...

Nah. It just got my attention early, and I went with it.

Quit stealing my lines!

Yes, I'm aware of the titles of your team's game threads. I was bored, was just messing around. Relax.

Sorry. No harm was meant.

We (I) often don't get first time humor. It is an acquired taste around here.
