Jenkins...Pitching in Coors...With AJ as his catcher? Good luck, kid.
 
A little surprising to see Adonis get the day off - especially since he's hot and it's in Denver. Would've made more sense (to me) to play Jace in LF and d'Arnaud at 2B given how much Frenchy and Beckham have struggled of late.
 
Lol I know it's Arenado. But our pitches are all freaking stupid. Jeez. You can't just come in Colorado and throw it wherever and expect to be "okay."

I just enjoyed that the pitch immediately followed Joe Simpson's breathless, enamored praise of Jenkins' poise and big-boy readiness for the majors.

(To be clear: I still like Jenkins as a prospect. I just always enjoy seeing ol' homespun Joe catch egg to the face.)
 
I like Jenkins too. And I know it's really hard to just pitch well there, but my God, there's absolutely no preparation by the staff or coaches.
