Flush it!
Lost the first game in 3 straight series. Sad.

At some point you worry CT begins feeling or showing pressure of having to come out & win to keep hopes of winning series alive.Luckily we have CT up next. Just hit the ball.

I'm too the point where I want to see X moved to the pen. Go with a weekend rotation of Thomas, Hurter, Willingham, and Roedig. Then have English be the closer and X the first guy out of the pen.My only concern is whether X really has lost speed off his fastball because of arm issues. That would explain why he might have been very hittable last night. My impression is that X relies on blowing his fast ball by guys when he needs to.

How am I suppose to do that? I am an grown *** adult male... with a vested emotional interest in an activity involving competition between groups of 18-23 yr old boys I have never met.... in which I have LITERALLY zero control. Chill? Impossible. ...doesn't mean it isn't great advice.Chill guys. It’s baseball. Pitcher doesn’t have it every night, and neither do hitters. I did speak with someone who was at game, said umps were awful both ways, and if ball went above lights it disappeared. On a positive note , it’s day games to finish series. Think I’ll have another beer
I am relieved to hear that, at least.Was sitting at 94 and hit 96 on Sunday. Don’t think that’s it.

I like a pitcher who is going to pound the zone more, so that would be Willingham at this point. I do love Roedig though. I want to see him and Bartnicki go to the Cape this summer because they are going to be starters next year.Given the Thursday start next week, I'd take X out next week and let him get better by recovering in the pen too. Something isn't right. I think Roedig may be better than Willingham starting. Both have the same ERA but Roedig's b/avg is a lot less but more walks. Pick your poison.
