    well, this is fortuitous.

    somebody should remind lt. dan that deGrom is no longer in the game.

    RF is 2-4 vs Vargas going tomorrow. Maybe Camargo at short and sit Swanson if these bad AB's keep up tonight.

    Really, the next two innings is the chance. Because otherwise you get into the meat of the Mets pen, and you don't want to do that while tied.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    Might be time to see how much damage Culberson can do with his bat in the lineup full time.

    Bad habits have been creeping back in for Swanson, but really, he's going to need to a fastball mistakes/meatball breaking balls hitter. That's fine, but he's going to need to work with it, and he was with fastballs early, but has gone back to being patients.

    If you can't tell I was joking then I don't know what to tell you. Culberson couldn't start for my kid's little league team.

    Swanson did better batting 8th, needs to go back there I think.

    Between the 2 pitchers there are 15 K and 4 H in 10 ip. Dansby isn't the only hitter struggling tonight

    Not sure what else people need to see to understand the difference between Newk and Folty. I hope Folty improves but I have my doubts.

    If we had this ump every game for Newk I'd like his chances a lot better.

    Here's the ugly part of swinging for it all there...
