[DallasMCRSdynasty]

Thank God Balt is taking it to LAA!

 

[DallasMCRSdynasty]

We have to get a game on the Angels tonight. Its there for the taking

And gain on Detroit!

Will be interesting to see if K.Uehara pitches in the 7th

 

[fanman8825]

And gain on Detroit!

Yes I really would like to avoid them or at the very least have home field advantage

 

[fanman8825]

Another wasted opportunity.

 

[fanman8825]

Great job Oliver

Baltimore scored again. 6-1 in the bottom of the 8th

Chris Davis and Pedro Strop are helping the cause in Baltimore

Right now we only have 2 starters pitchers we can count on if we get to the playoffs.
I am hoping that Harrison can step it up to be the third. No velocity to Colbys pitches and Ogando is probably best suited to for 6th or 7th inning bullpen work.
Still think we can beat the Yankees or the Redsox. Its the Tigers that really concern me

This is why I wonder how much you guys really watch the game. Colby ALWAYS pitches around 89 with his fastballs. Every once in a while he will hit 91. He relys on location, which has been off for well over a month now.

Your right with regards to his fastball, but actually I have watched Colby carefully and his velocity is down from last year. Maybe not that big of deal but he is just giving up way to many bombs.
At this point its a toss-up between him and Ogando for the playoffs. It comes down to these final 2 starts between the two

 

[dmc0015]

Hopefully Nefti is sharp tonight.

 

[guitarmy21b]

Big save opportunity right now! Let's go Nefty!

I don't think it will even be a question if Ogando can finish strong. Colby just doesn't have "it" right now. He had "it" going last year.

I had his back for the first few starts when he started to struggle, but it's hard to feel confident when he is on the mound now.

 

[fanman8825]

Nefty Looking sharpe

 

[guitarmy21b]

It's looking like we could clinch before the last 3 games. One out from the magic number being 7, with LAA's last 8 games being Baltimore, 4 @TOR, and 3 against Oakland. They're cooling off too. I like our odds.
