Chris Vallimont has got top notch heat. Picking up Romo and getting back a prospect who don't gotta go on the 40-man at year end for Lewin Diaz seems like a pretty shrewd move. Obviously the pitching staff still needs some more arms though...
That's the nub. Every time May has looked good it's because he ain't giving up free passes. He's reverted back to form this year. May got in trouble last night by handing out leadoff and 1-out walks. It's his modus operandi.
Based on the highlights above his breaking pitch looks live a curve. Really liked how he set up that 2nd-to-last batter with a couple fastballs up before he froze him with that breaking ball for strike three.
That felt good. As nice as it is to see Schoop break out of his slump I'm even more heartened to see Buck smack a couple doubles and have his first good game at the plate since he got back from the wrist contusion.
