You expect pitcher to develop along a typical path....flashes of brilliance, punctuated by time of inconsistency....with the former becoming more prevalent over the latter over a few years, until the guy has established himself as a bona fide major leaguer. Justin Masterson and Zac McCallister have followed that path....Cory Kluber is developing along those lines, but still a year or so behind those two.
David Huff has been trying to make the jump from triple A since before Zac and Cory....and to be honest, he has made little advancement. Waiting in the wings are other young pitchers...Carrasco, Bauer...time to move Huff out of the way. I suspect he may be retained at Columbus if / when he clears waivers at least until they have adequate arms to stock that team. But David's final grades are in.
Well said.

We never should have made fun of the failed Mariners prospects. One of them, Mile Carp, just hit a 3-Run HR for his new team.
3-0 after 2
3-0 after 2

I guess the Sheep League is more interesting than the game tonight.

Big game today. Get the W and guarantee at least a split. Go Tribe!

I don't feel like looking up the numbers but I believe Lester has owned the Tribe.

Had to look. Lester 6-1 lifetime vs Tribe. Sox 9-3 overall when he starts.

Not gonna put much stock in this loss. A couple of wind blown hits with a couple of bad plays on defense contributed, as did Pestano not being himself yet. His velocity is down and so is his command. It's a game they normally win, and should have won. I think it was the first time they lost a game all season when either tied or leading after 6. Come back tomorrow and get the split.vball10set;1448307 wrote:and the slide begins...

Pestano has sucked all year. Not 100% surprised by that. Needs to be moved from the 8th inning for awhile.

We are used to Pestano with his consistency and so this is a particularly tough loss. Here's hoping he gets back on track real soon!

Trying to buy seats for Thursday game vs the reds. Do you guys think section 102,103,107, 304 or 307 is the best bet ?

102-103 or 107. Bar right behind it in all cases.ohiobucks1;1448328 wrote:Trying to buy seats for Thursday game vs the reds. Do you guys think section 102,103,107, 304 or 307 is the best bet ?
