Ryan looks very below average. 

That’s depressing as hell.

Gallo and Bellinger, two of the easiest outs in all of baseball 

Bellinger would be hitting 4th for the Twins

Hate to think it, especially so early in the game, but that Gallo double may just be the game.  The subsequent double just icing on the cake for the Dodgers.

He’s been the worst hitter in baseball over the past 2 years and it’s not close. 
 

well, Gallo is the closest lol

What is up with Joe Ryan? I thought this guy would be good.

He is great against teams like Detroit and KC. His numbers are brutal against playoff quality bats

Outclassed. Best to tune back in Friday when we have an actual chance of winning 

Pretty hard to disagree with that comment.

Sub-300 OBP, lots of K’s, but huge power??

That’s leadoff for Rocco.

However, we need to keep in mind that he's a young pitcher still very early in his career.  He may well get better as his career progresses.

The sad part is that he's about the best starter we have right now, with an incomplete for Tyler Mahle at this point.

Gonna step out momentarily to put some mail in the mail, relieve myself, and unload (or restart as needed) the drier.

 

Take good care of the game while i am out.

Ryan is a decent pitcher, a good #4 and capable of fitting in as a #3 pitcher. Joe has trouble with teams that lay off the high stuff and he gets whacked on pitches down in the zone. However, if he harnesses his stuff and controls where the ball goes he can be very effective.
