4/25 Game Thread - Gilbert vs Quantrill

[Vogelbomb]

Only one lefty so Polanco playing a ton this series. Hoping he can continue to break out!!

He will breakout on that tonight. Going with 9 for him tonight.

They were saying he's getting closer so hopefully by the time Wednesday rolls around w/ Tyler Anderson on the hill, Polanco is a go

Quantrill has had one good start and three awful starts, and he's stunk it up the last two years. Normally we'd be bracing ourselves for six shutout innings but the boys are finding a way to score runs so we should have a good feeling about this one tonight unless "That's baseball" rears its ugly head.

Sadly last year he shut us down and threw like a 1 hitter. Don't like Randy getting a day off but I understand. Hopefully we don't look like fools against a shit pitcher at home. It's crazy our best hitter is 0-19 against him. Polanco can't hit this guy. Hopefully breaks that tonight!!

you understand? I personally don't understand why at the 20 game mark we need to start giving all our guys rest? 25 games is too many to play in a row? They've had like 6 off days already in the calendar. Guys used to play 162, man. God, these new-age management tactics really chap my ass

I kinda understand kinda don't. I don't like it. Randy is working pitchers so yes I am mad but we aren't managers we don't get to make decisions!! It sucks. Mast over Randy is a complete joke.

No way! Quantrill won't last 3 innings. We're going to fold him up like a handkerchief

Yessss I would love that. Give our pen a big night off!!!! Come on!!!

Yes I did say that but needs to play the field. Raleigh dhs against lefties so if he can swing from that side he can play the field back at 2nd.

That was hard to watch. Polanco sucks against Quantrill badly. Would have sit him tonight. 0-20 against shit pitcher. Ughhhhhh ugly first!!!

Thank god for replay. I think they need to allow coaches more challenges.

One thing I've picked up on this year -- idk if the rest of you have noticed -- how often umps miss calls on tag plays at 2b and 3b. It made me think about years prior to replay how many calls must have been missed and the game just played on. I feel like at least 50 percent of tag plays at 2b and 3b are overturned

welp, not a good start against a dude with an 8 ERA

Yea we never ever do well against shit pitchers. Hopefully we get going soon. Top of the order sucks right now. Moore over Rivas against a righty is a joke.
