I have a dentist appointment at 1PM, so I will probably miss a big part of the game.

Ask him to fill you in.

Expecting a yuge game from Inciarte.

Expecting a yuge game from Inciarte.

I'm guessing the modern Murderers' Row of Francouer, Garcia, and Flowers carries the day.

Mallex getting a start vs. Bumgarner rather than Markakis is a good sign in my book.

 

[TDlxANDER]

Watching the game on the work computer and the feed keeps jumping around on me. Almost sounds like a Chip Caray REEEEEEEEEMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIX!!!

 

[msstate7]

I'm listening to radio today and I enjoy our announcers infinitely more

 

[Garmel]

Freeman's ground rule double was bad luck that ended up costing us a run.

 

[Ozzie Swanson]

d'Arnaud keeps on hitting. I wonder if we'll see him at SS some while Beckham is on the DL.

Is Blair's velocity down this year? Or has he always been a 89-91 type guy??

 

[Russ2dollas]

Not sure. But the gun on mlb.com has bumgardner at 88-92. I think Blair was advertised in the 90-92 range with sink.

Gotta love 9:00am (Pacific) starts.

 

[Garmel]

Bumgarner does it again.

 

[Garmel]

Blair's really stinking up the joint now.

 

[jpx7]

Pretty much Aaron Blah today.

 

[TDlxANDER]

Aaron Blair was removed from the game at an appropriate time...

 

[dak]

The FO needs to think long and hard about how to get Blair on the right path. I'd like to see him back at AAA so he can get his mechanics and mind back to a good place. Let him see some extended success at AAA before bringing him back to MLB. Last time he got one mediocre, rain-shortened start before being called back up. Gant and Jenkins are more than adequate options to fill Blair's spot.

 

[50PoundHead]

This got really ugly really fast.

I am sure his exit velocity is pretty good today.
