Lopez didn't want to come out but you gotta go after the number 8 hitter

Is the 'not coming through, with the bases loaded', now constitute being a 'dead horse'?

The bones have disintegrated into ash. You know that old Kansas song, right?

😩

Larnach is so bad at getting to the ball. Just horrible. That was a catchable hit.

[rwilfong86]

Welp, I think this one is over. 

[RickOShea]

Well that didn't take long.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

did i mention how pablo lopez should of stayed in the game 

[Danchat]

Bad inning for the Lopez's...

Agree, solid hit, but he gave up on it. 

[CoastiePilot08]

This team can’t get out of its own way 

[Twinning Blue]

There's are bullpen.   I knew they would make their presence felt.

[h2oface]

Cano anyone?

[notoriousgod71]

Perhaps if he's in right field Gallo catches that ball instead of pulling up like larnach just did as someone suggested earlier.

[rwilfong86]

Bases loaded one out, can't score. Angels come back and take the lead the next half inning. How often have we seen that?

[h2oface]

Jorge Lopez' ERA is so totally unrepresentative of how he has pitched.

This was a wasted Lopez inning already. Pablo gifted the (potential) loss by Jorge. Thanks buddy.

Too. Many. Times.

One of the parents of my granddaughters softball team live streams their games on facebook.  Watching her play in finals somewhere in Nebraska. Umpires look like MLB level. but more entertaining then the Twins at this point.

[CoastiePilot08]

The bases loaded thing is mental at this point right?

[Montdak]

Another great move.  Take out the guy mowing them down cuz he walks a guy.  If he can start the inning why not give him a chance to get out of his own huge “jam” of having a guy on first.

Current bullpen trust rankings:

 

1 Duran

2 Stewart

3 Ron Davis

Interesting to bring in DeLeon for another righty. Not complaining, but it must be about matchups? It worked anyway

How many pitches would you let Lopez (P) throw?

Thanks.   This road trip drove me to try and find a place to vent.

[rwilfong86]

There's some life. Need one more!

[h2oface]

I just looked it up. Can this be only the third inherited runner that J Lopez has had this year? If that is correct (stats say 2 before today), then he has now inherited 3 runners, and all have scored this year. 3 for 3.

[wabene]

Magnifique!

To clarify who Stewart is, you are suggesting a Dave Stewart comeback, right?
