It really looks to like Locke needs to be sat for a start or two. He just looks ragged right now.

Nice start for Morton

 

[Darkstone42]

It'd be nice to win this one in the ninth and save our bullpen a bit, especially after good pitching from both Morton and Watson.

 

[Darkstone42]

In that spot, how can you just watch that pitch? You should be ready to swing at anything with the winning run on second. And that one was right down the middle.

 

[Darkstone42]

Cutch and Martin each tagged those balls. Just right at outfielders.

The extra inning losses in STL I could live with but I feel that they need to pull this one out.

 

[Darkstone42]

Thank goodness for Starling Marte.

Unfortunately, we are out of pinch hitters, and the pitcher's spot is due up this inning.

 

[thedddd]

First off where did Kris Johnson come from and glad he got out of that one.

Anyway I missed the start of the game but I assume Lambo was sent down and someone was moved to the 60 day DL to make room for him?

Well my assumption not knowing the transaction must be correct that Lambo was sent down?

Yeah, we needed an arm.

But he's given us two scoreless and a good sacrifice bunt.

 

[Darkstone42]

Marte has a chance to win the game after saving a run defensively last inning.

 

[Darkstone42]

I guess at least it was a productive out...

Makes sense and if he keeps it up for long relief like this anything will do!

His numbers were good in AAA.

Come on, Jordy. You know you're going to get something to hit.

Or not, I guess.

 

[Darkstone42]

Let's go, Cutch!

 

[thehobocop]

Ideal situation here. Cutch up with a chance to walk off.

Again, or not....

 

[thedddd]

Nope with Walker on third I wouldn't be surprised if it won't be until Martin who is the next one swinging.

 

[Darkstone42]

Well, okay then.

Let's go, Martin!

 

[thehobocop]

Martin does lead the team in walk offs though. Hopefully he can get another one.

 

[thedddd]

Well lets hope for magic in the 13th...
