    The defense has got to be better. No excuse for mental mistakes at this level

    McCann owes us a run. You don't make decisions on whether to let the tying run score. You get to that plate and get ready to tag.

    Yeah to get out of that inning with just 1 scored was pretty sweet, McCann not having a good game.

    McCann owes us two runs now after that pathetic pop out. He pops up a lot. You'd think they might work on that with him.

    Runner on third and second with zero out and of course they couldn't score anything

    That was as uncomfortable a scene as Rocky buying a turtle for his girlfriend.

    Sure glad Pettis didn't send Beltran home.

    The team deserves to lose, but Morton sure as hell doesn't. Hey, Devo, please with the not-sucking tonight.

    Well that sucked. McCann needs to get his head out of his a**. First pitch swinging in the 7th inning when the SP is already pushing 100 pitches. That's just f***ing annoying.

    He would've been toast. The throw ended up being on the money.

    Paging Rob Manfred. Maybe expedite some method of getting a consistent strike zone. It's already hard enough to pitch at the major league level.

    The "overused" argument is getting a bit stale... Devo's usage is no more than any average bullpen pitcher.

    As it is, he was actually accustomed to pitching more when he was a starter.

    He's still very good.... but the pace he set to start the season just may not be sustainable for him.
