    I doubt we leave 13 runners on base tomorrow. My heart can't take it if we do.

    RISP is generally on sequencing, and for whatever reason Suzuki (or Touki but I lean the other way with a guy making his 2nd start in the major leagues) decided to make it even easier for a great team to have good sequencing. They stopped using all of his pitches after his 6th strikeout for some reason. The thing is he's had those kinds of innings all the time and has ended up pushing through since he turned it around from having a near 5 ERA last year in Florida. Unfortunately with the environment, I think he got rattled (that's sad given it was home).
    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.

    Our entire team is scared of the Red Sox!
