Palumbo went 4.2 innings tonight. He gave up 1 run on 1 hit and 2 walks. He struck out 10 in those 4.2 innings.

W and up 3-2, I am going to Sunday's game 6 to see if we can clinch at home
Got on and you beat me to it. Glad we got one local team who knows how to win. Close it out for us Murph!

That is the Ben Bishop I have been wanting to see. If he plays like that the Stars can go all the way. The goalie is the difference in the playoffs.

Going to try and not lose it when the lineup is posted today. Cmon woody pick common sense over feelings.
I still wish he would have squeezed Andrus home. Especially the way we were hitting. He needs to pull a few buttons from time to time. I do like his moves with PH and pitching overall.

Still like him 10x more than Banny. I know the first year his main goal should be learning.

Being better than some other manager isn't the goal though. Some of his mistakes can be chalked up to inexperience, but some of them are ones that he should know better about even before becoming a manager. That being said, it is too early to judge him either way.

Right, I am not down on Woodward. But I do want to see him manage like he is playing for a championship. But he is in a learning mode right now. As always time will tell.

Much better

It’s better, but I still see an issue.

Gallo has been our most dangerous hitter this year. I guess people are just going to throw him 4 balls outside the zone, walk him, so that they can get to odor.

He should’ve been dropped to #8 to minimize his stink on the lineup.

Agreed... but I'll take baby steps
