  1. Its fun to see Kirilloff healthy and productive. He put together a nice month in a lineup sorely needing it. Hopefully he keeps building on it and continues to finally grow to his potential. Jeffers' month seemed to be a quietly productive month. Maybe I wasn't paying that close of attention until recently, but this stretch snuck up on me. Happy to see it. Especially after his struggles last season. Castro, what can I say? It's always fun to see a guy push his way into the lineup by taking the opportunities given to them and making the most of them. That's certainly what Castro has done.
  2. Sure, but that can be done in a thread of its own. Not in the Hitter of the Month thread. The majority of comments in this thread so far involve Gallo and not about the topic of the thread. Now, moving back to the topic at hand...
  3. I imagine that the idea was that Lopez wouldn't get shelled and would be able finish out the game. It's not like Pagan was guaranteed to get through the rest of the game either. But yes, that would have been another option. Not the one I would choose, but not one I'd have been upset with either. At least it was Stewart that was burned up and not one of the better relievers. Stewart can be sent down for a fresh arm.
  4. And I would add that a game like that is a perfect time to get a guy like Lopez work in a low leverage situation to work out some kinks. It obviously went poorly, but that's why you do it. You have some room for error. Plus, there's still a lot of season left and the young starters are already being relied on heavily. And as @IndianaTwin noted, they're coming up on a stretch of 28 games in 30 days. Fresh bullpen arms are easier to cycle through than the rotation guys. I wouldn't have been upset if Varland came out for the 8th, but I don't think it was necessary and there were better uses for that situation in my opinion.
  5. So, offense is fun! Nice outing by Varland. Pretty encouraging to see him work through the couple of tough spots he found himself in.
  6. Now I'm positive that I need new glasses. I can't be reading this correctly.
  7. I don't believe that even for a second! Think of the DQ franchisees!
  8. Pretty sure you have a meme from the other day covering that one.
  9. I'll recycle my own posts as much as I please!🤣
  10. @ashbury...the trick is to tell the @Squirrelsent you. They'll put it on her tab and you'll never have to pay for them!
  11. That guy doesn't look like a cheeseburger. Just sayin'.
  12. That's a tad below what I would consider to be stellar.
  13. And far more entertaining and enjoyable.
  14. The trick is to tell them @Squirrelsent you. They'll put it on her tab and you'll never have to pay for one again!
  15. Nice to see Varland work his way out of that inning.
  16. Actually surprised if it's happened at all! But I'll certainly take it now!
  17. Even more sometimes. Most times even, by average.
  18. But he has been sitting down...on the IL. That clearly didn't help Kepler or the team. 🙂
