Game Thread: 6/3 Hamstrings @ Jailbirds

[Stokes1931]

Span cf
Panik 2b
Duffy 3b
Posey c
Belt 1b
Crawford ss
Blanco lf
Parker rf
Cueto p

Red those redding redbirds, 5-1 good guys

Parker goes deep. Twice.

 

[calsnowskier]

This is the new A-Team...

 

[calsnowskier]

Apparently Bochy stated that they are looking at external solutions for the OF. That does not bode well for Mac/Parker/Gerkys/Slater

IMHO, we should consider shuffling this lineup to:
Span
Belt
Crawford
Posey
Duffy
Panik
Blanco
Parker
pitcher

Gets more PAs for Belt, takes some pressure off Panik and Belt, and rewards Crawford for some solid work. Just a thought.

BELTED!!

Keep the line moving boys...

JC has very little control tonight. Might be a five and dive.

 

[Stokes1931]

What is up with Cueto? He usually isn't this wild. Or is the home plate umpire squeezing the strike zone. Seems like both pitchers have thrown a lot of pitches so far.

Not sure external options that are available in early June would be any better than some of the guys you mentioned. Parker and Williamson (Parker especially) have a chance to shine better a trade can be done, maybe. Depends on how swiftly the front office pulls the trigger.

A clearly struggling Cueto still puts forth a 5 IP / 1 R performance.

Amazing.

Out of the box solution:

Coax Adam Laroche out of retirement. Move Belt to the outfield. Let the little Laroche hang with Dad in the dugout.

No player cost.

Ain't havin' it.

6 IP now

I can't see him going 7, can you? Not at 105 pitches. Well, I have seen our bullpen.....

 

[Stokes1931]

Up through tonight, Cueto has a 5-1 K/BB ratio (72/14). Tonight it is 1/5. But he's only given up one run. Amazing.

He seems to have figured out his issues, but I would rather lose the game than Cueto. If he is dealing with a strained back, send him to the showers.

I would be just fine with this bad-Cueto as our #3...

 

[Stokes1931]

Gonor not looking very good lately.

 

[Mays-Fan]

Nice job by Gearrin there in the 7th.

I'm feeling a three run shot right now.
