    Yep, smacked a fast ball into the bullpen. Which is why all he got today was curve balls...

    Just listened to the post match with Hinch. He said he didn't have a clue what to do because cangrejero has been banned and so he can't log in during the game for bullpen guidance.

    Incredibly frustrating to waste two more opportunities in a row to make up ground on the Rangers.

    Is there really ever a "good" day to lose? If the Rangers lose, it's frustrating to not gain ground. If the Rangers win, it's frustrating to fall further back.

    There's definitely never a good day to lose.

    But knowing that they had an opportunity to gain some ground does make it really frustrating, to me.

    Thank goodness it's an early start to quickly wash the taste.

    SEA starter, Miley (5.58 ERA), has pretty much sucked against everyone except us. He threw 6 IP 2 ER earlier against us this year. The lineup up and down has been better since then, so there's hope.

    Eh, he's just been really inconsistent. CG shutout vs the Royals, 7 shutout vs Cleveland, 6 shutout at Baltimore. He's had a couple of ok starts and been terrible in the others.
