Lowe's terrible throw to Duran allows a run to score blowing a shut out.

Sucks because Heaney was excellent today.
Thankfully the run wasn't charged to him because of the error.

Heaney pitched a very fine game today.

He keeps this up and this team will really have a tough decision to make.
Great problem to have.

Ain't it the truth. Gonna be interesting.

And I know we've all debated between Dunning or Heaney, which one should stay in the rotation, who should get put in the pen, but that's getting to choose between two very good scenarios.

Absolutely and ya can't miss at this point.

Exactly.

Didn't take the pen long to get in trouble.

Right? Leclerc and Hernandez aren't long for this team, IMO. Maybe here in a month we'll have Dunning/Heaney joined by a healthy Otto solidifying the pen some. Also like what we're seeing from Barlow since his return.

Smith getting an at bat reminded me. He has gone 8 for 22 (.363) with 3 doubles and a HR this month, and he is kind of the odd man out. A year or two ago that would guarantee him a month's worth of starts. This offense has come a long way.

Josh is creating another good problem to have.

.391 batting average for May
.782 slugging for May

Definitely.
Have to think the excess of talented hitters - likely from the minors - will be the key to fixing the bullpen.

With an OBP of .481, Smith now has an OPS of 1.263 for the month of May.

That Gallo trade may go down as one of the best ones in recent memory.
