[Blyleven2011]

We gotta get something going , the fifth inning would be a god inning to start hitting and scoring again ...

Yes we are winning but is 3 enough ..

How big of a lead do they need to cover the bullpen? 

Also, I'd rather rodon or Fedko were in center and Kriedler at short, bit they seem to like grey. Also, they've given up on Fedko as anything but later inning guy. 

Five run lead in the eighth. Unless we are planning to see Rogers, Finderbroke, Orze or Raya. Then 6.5

Saints batting practice is tonight la even. 11-3 bottom of the 4th.

[Baumer67]

Ryan still throws too many pitches for him to usually go more than 6 innings

I'd prefer double digits.

Not a great defensive inning for Lewis 

[RpR]

OK, Lewis is Not a lot improved at First.

[hitterscount]

Royce having a rough inning… so bad there it’s ruled a hit…. the standard where if you don’t touch the ball it’s a hit is really dumb.

[h2oface]

Lewis owes us at least one run. Should’ve been out of the inning. Instead he tags Ryan with a hit and subsequent earned run. And all the extra pitches leading to a blowpen appearance earlier.

This is what happens when you move a player mid season to a new position, take the good with the bad.

[Church of Kreidler]

That should have been a challenge.

Oh no.

Right, too bad they've moved every Opening Day infielder off their initial positions. 

[Patzky]

Yikes it's crunch time.

[hitterscount]

WTF Carantini, use the challenge 

[Parfigliano]

Get your head in the game Joe

[Bracky]

I feel like that would have been a good spot to have challenged that by Caratini 

[RpR]

It is not all Lewis as Ryan is sputtering, but Lewis screw up was a Major problem.

Because they stank there.

Real or Perceived slights throw him off, the experience.

[h2oface]

Come on Caratini! That was an inning closer! The BEST kind to challenge. it was certainly close enough even if you would have lost it. But you wouldn’t have!!!!

Challenge system STILL inadequate.

Karma from the non challenge last night perhaps.

This lineup is begging for Kaelen Culpepper to make his MLB debut soon. 

You can’t make it up… Truly.

I still don't like the moves, they should have been done in spring training or next offseason.

[h2oface]

At least Altuve knows when to challenge. Teammates letting Ryan down big time!

[Church of Kreidler]

[Parfigliano]

Good use of challenge by Altuve.  I didn't like it. 

[RpR]

Ryan is kaput.

[hitterscount]

None of this is on Ryan… should have been out of the inning 15 pitches ago without a run….
