Great pitching lineup tonight. Soroka and Folty will hopefully build of their last starts.. Lawlor is an under the radar guy that needs to extend his outings to get noticed.. Ellis will hopefully cut his BB down this start..
 
Great pitching tonight! I really hope Folty can continue to build. Dude was so impressive in his last start.

I wonder what the long term plan for Lawlor is. He leapfrogged Rome completely, so he obviously has something going for him.
 
I don't think Folty will ever amount to anything at the major league level. He's never been more than a decent minor league pitcher. He throws hard but that's about it, and those die on the vine all the time.

So do posts like this.
 
Anyone watching Ellis pitch for Mississippi tonight? I see he just gave up his first hit with two outs in the third. I am not able to watch tonight so just wondering how he looks so far.
 
Swanson with another multi-hit game tonight including an RBI double. Bird continuing to struggle after being put in a relief role and going back to High A. The Olivera trade gets better and better. Talk about a total bust of a trade if there ever was one.
 
Not a great night for Folty. Just 3 H and 5 K in 5 IP, but also 4 BB and 3 ER. Ruiz 1-3.

Ellis pitching really well. 5 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 2 K. Albies 1-3 with a 2B.

Lawlor didn't pitch well. 6 BB in 3.2 IP, 2 ER. Davidson 2-3 with a 2B, would be nice to see him heat up. Swanson 2-3 with a 2B, now up to .362.

Soroka had an up and down night. 6 K and only 1 BB in 5 IP but 7 H and 3 ER. ERA at 2.40. Not a great night for Rome's hitters. Riley 0-3 with 2 K (Even with his obvious power, my enthusiasm for him is dying quickly); Herbert 0-3 with 2 K, now hitting .135; Acuna 0-3 with 2 K and 1 BB.

Herbert and Riley have been pretty disappointing so far this year.

The thing is, Riley's production has still been fine. His average has dropped but is still at least at .250, and his OPS is still about .800, even while he's in a big slump.

But the BB rate and the K rate are both atrocious right now. He needs to get those corrected, otherwise he'll need to repeat A-ball next year.

Folty had it working.. he ran into trouble with a soft single then stolen base.. Error didn't help him and made him throw more pitches. I think he just got tired. He still needs more time to build strength.

Lawlor was awful.. wild pitches and walks gave them at least 3 runs..

Riley is close to a 50% K rate. he is struggling to say the least... Herbert has not impressed either.. he K's a lot and also pops up too much..Hoping those two can pick it up a bit.
