And as for last night's game, I'd put that more on Tyler Flowers than Johnson. They can call that a wild pitch all they want, but that's a passed ball in my eyes.

We've had some excruciating losses this season, and last night's ranked right up there with them.

Ramirez is great in the 7th or 8th, but in the 9th and in extras, he shrinks, and we've already seen Vizcaino fail as a closer last season, so honestly, Johnson is still our best option, at least until Cabrera comes back, and keep in mind, Johnson is known for bad first halfs and being great in the second half.
It shouldnt even have gotten to the point where a wild pitch ties it though.

I know it's not intentional, but God damn, we get with more pitches than anyone else in the Majors.

I'd say hit one of them, but I doubt a 70 MPH knuckle ball would send much of a message.

Back to back doubles to start off the inning were rough, but then he induced two weak tappers, and then Flowers let a ball get by him.

Johnson wasn't great, don't get me wrong, but Flowers has to make that stop.

And also last night, how do you only get 2 runs on an 83 year old Bronson Arroyo with an ERA over 5 in the most home run friendly park in the Majors?

LOL @ people that think Billy Hamilton is better in CF than Inciarte.

Ive never seen one player take so much abuse in one season as Suzuki has this year.

Umpire must be related to Sam Holbrook.

Both can eat a dick.
