Why the **** is Jones in there?

 

[Coredor]

Shane Greene was at the stadium last night as a spectator. I bet he’d like to come back and pitch for us.

He’d make a lot of sense.

 

[msstate7]

His approach? Stand there

 

[CyYoung31]

I know for a fact that we have at least 3 relief pitchers on the farm who are better options than Nate Jones.

STRIKES

I know for a fact that we have at least 3 relief pitchers on the farm who are better options than Nate Jones.

More importantly, why doesn't AA know the same thing?

 

[GovClintonTyree]

I had solid hopes for Jones as a bounce-back candidate, and the stuff looks solid, too; but he just has absolutely no command.

Yeah, he's all over the place.

 

[Slippyjms]

Jackson is impressing tonight

 

[jsebe10]

HE DOESNT HAVE COMMAND OF THE FCKN SLIDER!! Stop throwing it!

 

[Super]

Why the **** is Jones in there?

honest to god this is the exact question i’ve asked myself every time he’s been put in this year.

 

[Enscheff]

It's worded kind of oddly, but the fly ball is treated as a time play and not a force play, so the timing of the events is all that matters whether a tag or a force out.

I stand corrected.

 

[Enscheff]

And this is rough to watch.

 

[USMA76]

My goodness, that was painful but at least we're still tied.

 

[drewdat]

After what we just watched, I've even more confused why we let Culberson walk

 

[CyYoung31]

Jesus H...

Or Duvall

 

[Coredor]

Alex Jackson kept that inning from being an unmitigated disaster. Still that was awful.

 

[CyYoung31]

Or Duvall

We cut Duvall to save money. He basically confirmed it, saying he wanted to come back.

 

[salmagundy]

Alex Jackson kept that inning from being an unmitigated disaster. Still that was awful.

That fiasco was the 8th inning. Jackson threw the 7th inning.

 

[CyYoung31]

We can bitch about the bullpen all we want, but the key factor to almost all of our losses this year has been a lack of offense.
