2-2 tonight.

Missed the game last night. Went with some friends and my dad (mom couldn't make it) to Billy Joel at Progressive. Excellent show and a great place for a concert. We were on the field so it was ideal...not sure how it would have been in the stands or the cheap seats but 13th row center stage wss awesome.

And they lose 4-3. I don't like to second guess Tito but I didn't like the way he handled the bullpen tonight.Sends out Kluber for the eight. Kluber gives up HR,puts Miller in and he shuts them down. Sends Miller back out for the ninth,Miller walks first batter and Tito takes him out and puts in Shaw.Shaw gives up HR game over.

Put Miller in for the 8th you have done this all year then Allen for the 9th like you have done all year.

Doing the old "save closer for potential save situation instead of using him when needed to get outs" trap that you'd expect a manager considered smart by virtually everyone to not fall into. I can understand Kluber being out for the eighth; 2 runs in 7 with a reasonable pitch count for him -- he should be expected to go. And, by his standards, I understand Miller coming out for the 9th, as he's been expected to go more than 1 pretty regularly. But bringing in Shaw instead of Allen was a mistake. Go with the best guy available and scale down to the middle/long relievers if needed.

Yeah... this one's on Tito.... with an assist from the non existent offense. That's three wasted Corey Kluber starts in a row.

Agree with last statement, but believe they lost 5-3...not a good way to start the second half.

What a sucky start.

Bauer lifted in the first.

Down 4-0 and Otero in.

(Typed an hour and a half ago. Forgot to hit send. )

Bauer not helping my cause for not needing a starter, and he is just fine lol

Three straight innings with a lead off double, and they can't even advance the runner past second in any of the three...pathetic

edit: Allen stinking up the place yet again, and Bauer just plain blows

Why was Zimmer not starting? Guyer and Almonte should never be out there together.
