    That was the best worst start by a pitcher I've seen in a couple of years. It could have been devastating. but they won a one run game, and sipp was amazing. What's wrong with Giles? He has been perfect in save situations. Has hinch lost Faith? Did he punch himself before the game.

    Beating the Rangers is sweet. Wish we could play them every game for the rest of the season.....and win them all!

    So, How long before Jake is sent down again? Derrick Fisher or JD Davis coming back? Jake is a Blake hole in the lineup. Kemp has shown he belongs in the Majors.

    Will you take mine back from Giles and give it to him?

    Still 10-10 in save opportunities with a 0.00 ERA. :)

    All other games his ERA is 9+. Not sure where that split ranks all time, but it's got to be near the top.

    It would be very difficult to have a bigger disparity.

    Yep, especially for a pitcher with 10+ saves

    Mm ba ba de
    Um bum ba de
    Um bu bu bum da de
    Regression pushing down on Giles
    Regressing down on Giles, no fan (except Bobrek) ask for him to pitch
    Under regression that brings a stadium down
    Splits a fan base in two
    Puts people in streets with pitchforks
    Um ba ba be
    Um ba ba be
    De day da
    Ee day da - that's okay
    It's the terror of knowing
    What in the world Hinch is doing
    Watching some good friends
    Screaming 'Don't let Giles pitch'
    Pray tomorrow gets me higher
    Regression on Giles coming, people in the streets with pitchforks

    Wouldn't be surprised to see Morton take a 10-day DL vacation sometime soonish.

    Been thinking the same thing. Loss of command can be sign of fatigue or something worse.

    There's no way he doesn't miss a few starts this year, so you know it's going to happen at some point, seems like a good time to let him get some rest and get some side work with Strom.

    It's the "something worse" that scares me.
