    Not shocking exactly to see our pitchers regress to the mean, didn't think I'd see it against the Royals and Rays though.

    Bad luck in that inning. The walk should have been a strikeout. Don't see many HR's hit off of pitches that far up and away.

    When the hell did Marwin become Alex Gordon in LF?? Incredible outfield assists lately

    That was kinda unfortunate for him. Good swing, ball bounced perfectly off the wall, and an incredible throw by Marwin.

    Home offensive woes look to continue so far through the first two innings. Stanek has 5 outs after only 11 pitches. Interesting decision to remove him this early.

    I don't watch a lot of baseball. But I do not understand why they took him out at all.

    Did I miss an explanation as to why the Rays took out their starting pitcher?

    Feels like it's going to be one of those games. The **** is wrong with this team at home?

    A lot of their starters have gotten injured so they started having these bullpen games where a reliever pitches anywhere from 1-3 innings depending on how he's going. This one was just interesting cause Stanek had been getting quick outs but I guess Cash wanted the lefty Venters up against Reddick.

    Guy isn't a starter, they've done this a few times, they're going for a straight bullpen game.

    Looks like we'll have an early bullpen night too. Haha hopefully the offense picks up Cole. First game home after a long road trip is always tough mentally...
