    wow. Would be excusable for any player in a 10 run game.. but not Yuli after his last couple of weeks. Need some work, or to sit down, or something.

    Yuli just made an error? Thought he was a good glove. He is having issues. 1st easier than 3rd. I did not see the play only that he got charged with an error.

    The real story of the game is that Tony Sipp lowered his ERA to 3.38 :eek:

    He's baaaack!

    Let's give Sipp some credit -- flawless (minus Yuli screw up) outing, and he pitched so efficiently that he actually saved the rest of the pen. Nice job.

    Our run differential wasn't quite as impressive as our win total. So we just had to beat the f**k out of somebody to make it look a little better.

    Yuli will figure it out with some time. 1st base is a challenging position to learn and get used to in general.

    Rather a bizarre game seeing Sipp come in after Feliz. I got so used to seeing Sipp get in trouble and then Feliz come in immediately after to bail him out.

    I thought it was where they usually stashed the fat position players. For some reason, I always think of a John Kruk type at 1B. :D ;)

    Sipp almost got Yuli's wrist broken with that bad throw.

    Who's fault was that?

    Yuli has what 4 errors? A couple of the best 1st baseman have just as many or more and this is his first year fielding the position.

    If Sipp is on he's a great pitcher.

    One of the better lefty pen guys in the league not to long ago.

    Easy pop fly that he dropped. Earlier he made a bad throw, but I didn't see it.
    5 now and all in like a week span. He was never impressing me at 1B. He was just making plays a 3B would normally make, but he doesn't stretch well. Doesn't handle throws towards the runner well at all. Now he is screwing up easy plays anybody should make.

    The Stros hammered Koehler back to the minors. He makes 5.8M and hasn't seen action in the minors since 2013

    Who are those people? There are no 1Bs in baseball with more errors than Yuli so far, and certainly no one anyone would classify as one of the best 1Bs.
