I still don't understand why Chirinos is the #1 catcher.

IMO we have two back ups. We need a genuine starter.

That's about as accurate as I've heard it put.

 

[DT LUNA]

Emily is playing hurt. Send her down

True, but we're not a contending team, so does it really matter? We're just hoping Alfaro is ready to be a half-time catcher next season.

He's on his way. He just can't get here soon enough. It seems like ages ago that we got production from our C.

That would be 2011. I don't expect Alfaro to be our full time catcher till 2017

Just saying that's why Chirnos is not a #1 catcher. Don't have one.

Now there's a good start......Choo

 

[romeo212000]

Choo might be back.

Happens to all of them Nick

 

[darrylgann]

A few loud outs plus that homer. Come on Nick.

Happens to all of them Nick

Nick's gonna give up some bombs because of the type of pitcher he is. As long as he can limit them to the occasional solo shot he'll be fine

 

[romeo212000]

Doesn't sound like Nick is missing many bats so far.

 

[DT LUNA]

A few loud outs plus that homer. Come on Nick.

To someone else credit he needs to quit hitting so many bats before it catches up.

 

[romeo212000]

I'm really tired of seeing Chrinos swing the bat.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Word of the day - "No Doubt"

 

[saddles]

Small sample size.

His whole time up here has been a small sample size. The good and the not so good.

 

[romeo212000]

I gotta say

His whole time up here has been a small sample size. The good and the not so good.

My point exactly.
