    Great play by Dubon, and a solid inning for Urquidy.

    You were not reading anything into it. Maldy made it obvious he didn't want to talk about Diaz and got them to move on pretty quickly

    Maldy hurts this team and he doesn't even care

    I would love to see Urquidy get red hot for a few starts or more. He has always quietly gone about his business. Solid workhorse pitcher who has kept us in games, when healthy of course.

    Great AB, Jose. Terrible on the last pitch but still a good AB

    No reason Maldonado should be playing

    THAT'S the problem

    Once he plays, there's a chain of suboptimal events

    Just tuning in . Bottom of the lineup looks like trash. Not sure Dusty has learned the principle of lineup optimization where your best players generate more runs and lesser players generate less runs o_O

    Urquidy sharp. Plenty of options for him to be a tandem/bridge guy. Sorta like his stuff paired with Brown, hitters will be off-balance.

    Scheduled loss. Let's see if the players can do anything about that.

    Urquidy/Brown or France/Brown makes a lot of sense

    Peña is 8 for 19 w/3 walks in his last 5 games. He’s play in 107 games. Why he’s not starting today can be explained in one word…Dusty.

    Dusty has no idea that Pena has been hitting well. He is clueless

    He's played 22 games in a row with 1 or 2 off days
