    after a strike call on springer, i thought the ump was going to break out in a dance. I knew then something wasn't right.

    All of this said, if I have to hear Ashby and crew complain about balls and strikes one more time I'm going to listen to the other broadcast. I'm getting annoyed. It's like 5x a game now. It could be a drinking game. Find something new to talk about please or just dial it down a bit.

    Unless it's Brownie and Blummer I always watch the other teams broadcast. Thank goodness for MLB Tv.

    I think Marwin is outhitting Delgado. Also, he stands up for God Bless America.

    Delgado has a 0.900+ OPS in his last 26 games.

    Interesting. Villar with a start at 3rd over Valbuena.

    I don't understand Tucker not getting any run. He has 2 plate appearances in the last week - he walked and singled.

    Matt Duffy coming up tomorrow.

    Desperation time.

    Wonder what happened to not calling anybody up before their minor league playoffs were over?

    Really just an organizational screw up. I thought Duffy should have been called up Sep 1 at the latest. He provides coverage at 1B and 3B, plus he should excel against lefties, something the other options do not.

    would you play him over lowrie or marwin vs. lefties? Or just to rest them occasionally?

    Full-blown panic mode. Pulled him away from the prestigious PCL World Series, which they wanted us to think was so important for the organization.

    I'd think there's a chance he's our every day starter the rest of the way if he performs.

    I actually wouldn't mind seeing Duffy at 3B, Marwin at 1B and Lowrie at DH.

    Marwin has played really well this year, but I think Duffy is gonna be a better hitter overall.
