TheDoyler23 Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Series W against the best record team in MLB. Kremer with a strong start and the pen held it down. Offense really blew some chances to make it less interesting. Ah well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDoyler23 Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 This team has tremendous chemistry going. Our birds lack a true Ace. They lack (for the moment) that fear of God MOO bat that other teams have to plan around. But they make up a lot of that with ballplayers. Wether it’s Santander having a 16 pitch AB or Mateo turning a single into a double and then stealing 3rd or Mullins chasing one down in the gap or Urias playing gold glove defense at 3 positions. Ballplayers. —— Only complaint last night is the pen outside of the big 4 of Baumann, Baker, Cano and Bautista. Coulombie gives the lead right back and Voth pitches the game into a save situation. Bah. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bah. Well the relief pitching was good enough to win, and its not like they got totally rocked. I think most teams would kill to have a bullpen as good as ours. Once you get past most teams top three or four relievers, you have a couple of replacement-type, 4-5 ERA players at best. So they're gonna give up runs occasionally. Also Givens and Tate should be back soon. Another win tonight, Tyler Wells went 7 with only 1 hit allowed along with 8 Ks, but was saved in the 7th by Santander grabbing what looked like a 3-run homerun after walking two batters.

And with him pitching yesterday, he’s not going to pitch today. He’s available today if Voth had taken care of business. It happens though. All these guys are going to have bad outings… even Cano… I think… lol. That’s a “contending team” problem that we’re not used to thinking about! And Givens and Tate will have the luxury of not having to throw high leverage innings right away, but can be depended on when 2 or so of the big 4 are a no go. Having a pitcher come out in the 6th who is more than capable of taking the 8th is niiiiiice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatBuzz Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 I'll be there today. PS, if anyone ever needs a Sunday parking pass, let me know. If I'm not using it, someone else can. We usually walk or Uber to the games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Hunderson will be that guy as he evolves a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCSaints_fan Posted May 20, 2023 Author Share Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) Nice rally. Trailing 5-2 , a 3 run homer by O'Hearn in the 8th and then two shutdown innings by Cano and Bautista to get to extras. Bottom of the 9th I was convinced we were done when Kiermaier got to second with no outs and Springer, Bichette and Guerrero were up, but Bautista shut them down with a short flyout and 2 Ks. Then some small ball in the 10th and we're up 6-5. Bautista strikes out the side which gave him 5 Ks in two innings.

DCSaints_fan Posted May 20, 2023 Author Share Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) Its good we won that because our bullpen is used up. Baker, Cano and Bautista should be on a day of rest. So tomorrow would need a very strong start from Kremer. And we face former Oriole Kevin Gaussman Speaking of which, are these guys like cousins or something?
