    I’m glad we got 8 tonight because Soroka has not had his best stuff for sure.

    Stupid pitch 0-2, you try to get him to chase again outside. That was right down the middle fastball.

    Terrible pitching, no excuse for that. But calling a fastball 0-2 to someone who has been chasing off speed outside tonight was insane call by both Soroka and Flowers.

    Peter "Gas Can" Moylan up. I sure hope we expand the lead next at-bat.

    Soroka isn’t calling his pitches or has no say...it’s that bullheaded moron behind the plate....

    Sending Moylan out there is worse than keeping Soroka in for another batter.

    Soroka's made his fair share of mistakes, sure, but Flowers has continued to struggle badly to try to learn how to catch him. He dropped a sinker that was not even close to wild in the first inning and there's been calls that make zero sense from him in every start he's made with him.
    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.

    Flowers is a bonehead pitch caller at times, if that was all him he cost Soroka a win most likely and allowed Toronto life. It is even worse a call since Soroka was not his best tonight.
