CRON!

[MMMordabito]

So are the 8th/9th Romero mop up duty?  It's sad that he was the #1 prospect two years ago and that's his likely role today.

[Aggies7]

Hit that one halfway to south africa

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Much like your username?

Alas, i'm not good enough to ride bareback. I'd need at least a saddle...

I wouldn't be surprised if Morin starts the 8th, but I'd be fine with Romero getting two innings. 

[Blake]

 

These tight late inning games are nail biters. 

 

Insurance runs, plz.

I think they're just about there.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Wow... 9 runs. Ol' 'Nny is doin'pretty good here. May i stop biting my nails now?

Something like this?

[TFRazor]

We're like one of those TimeLife music infomercials. The hits just keep on coming

[operation mindcrime]

NICK PUNTO REFERENCE!

I'm still waiting for a Denny Hocking reference!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Something like this?

Might be able to handle that.

 

Do i get a parachute if i get bucked off?

[MVP Nick Punto]

Ask Chief; he's the smart parachute guy.

[TFRazor]

Holy crap Romero just hit 99 on the radar gun

[MMMordabito]

oh, boy

[operation mindcrime]

Romero get the job done!!!!!!!

[USAFChief]

 

Holy crap Romero just hit 99 on the radar gun

 

And up to number 13 on the top 40!

Apparently not - I think we have seen this play out before with Romero pitching.  

[USAFChief]

At least Romero looks good.

[TFRazor]

Oy vay

[wavedog]

Dudes hitting .194 throw a strike

[USAFChief]

To be fair, this is a pretty stressful, high leverage situation Romero has been thrust into.

[woolywoolhouse]

Hearing Dick getting flustered with Romero's control here in the 8th... There's something comforting yet frustrating with that.

[TFRazor]

Pull him

 

Edit: Thank you

[MMMordabito]

You can't make this bad up.

[wavedog]

Glad we got the 4 pitches from Morin - don't see why we didn't leave him in for the 8th and bring Romero in for the 9th

 

[MVP Nick Punto]

Romero get the job done!!!!!!!

What do you have to say for yourself?

[MNT1996]

Hopefully Wes is on the phone with a trade deal

[USAFChief]

Hope you were able to get a short term lease, Romero.

[snotboogie]

Pull him

From your mouth to Rocco’s ear.

[MMMordabito]

How about we trade Romero for Brennan? They both need a change of scenery.
