Santana has been an animal at 3rd tonight.

A dumb ass fan almost didn't let Santana catch a foul ball. Hey morons, you should never be allowed back at a game if you try to take a ball from your own team. Consequently, if you don't try to stop an opposing team from catching it you should also be banned. Learn how to be a fan.

God I love Mike Aviles.

He hits some absolute ropes. When he squares it up, it is just on a line.

Thanks Aviles for digging out Gomes. Gosh this team is dumb. I'll take the W though.

I like his swing, it seems like he can cover the whole plate and really turn on the inside pitch when he has to.

He has amazing hand-eye. There is so much movement in his swing its pretty amazing he can hit the ball so squarely.

If he stays in the 3-hole, which he should, he will likely keep that pace up.

Masterson was as good as he could be the first 5 innings. Then walks and *shocker* errors haunt him in the 6th. Now again a leadoff walk in the 7th followed by a single and double. He is done at under 100 pitches. Wow.

Still lead 5-3, but 1st and 3rd and no outs.

On to TB. We are basically getting three #5 starters from them. If you are gonna take a series in the road in TB, now is the chance to do it. Throwing Kluber, ZMac and Tomlin.

They have Moore, Hellickson and Cobb on DL, and we miss Price.

5-2 on the home stand...just what we had hoped for. ...could have been 7-0.

Much better to be 5-2 and look at the what if of 7-0, than to go 3-4 and have the what if of going 5-2!!!

Yeah, I said 5-2 would be great this homestand. Very pleased with it. Made up games on Twins and Sox, and you gotta catch them first...
