d.bote is experiencing on/off diziness and has been shelved from his rehab assignment for evaluation.

sigh.

joe maddon is out of a job.

phil nevin in.

maddon had a 157-172 record with LAA over 3 years.

I suspect Joe Madden will go on a national park trailer trip unless someone throws $$ at him to be a color analyst.

cleveland guardians player oscar gonzalez has the theme from spongebob squarepants as his walk-up song and i hope he has an insanely long career.

a.mills activated and expected to work out of the pen for a while.

espinoza to AA.

7 runs earned over 3 innings.

command was crap.  he couldn't consistantly spot anything.  rainy night, but damn...  next start @NYY...good f'n luck, bro.

a.mills got 5 innings out of the pen and did the usual a.mills things.  he got 6Ks, but i'd chalk that up to facing BAL rather than something he's done with his pitching.

    steele MRI on friday.  counsell expects an IL stint.

    no current plans for his rotation replacement.

    I would say also in the bright side column is Busch looked pretty good overall at the plate. Alzolay…man, that hurts but most of the time he’s not giving up a homer to that guy. To me the worst was almonte hanging that pitch to Garcia. He hung another one to the next hitter too and got away with it on an 0-1.

    amaya blocked like 6-8 of smyly's pitches in the dirt very cleanly...not even an exaggeration, smyly threw a ton of pitches bouncing in tonight.

    neris looking like his old self was a relief (no pun), too.

    In looking for bright spots the defense was outstanding tonight. The “stars” are going to need to shine quite a bit brighter than they did tonight offensively though for this to be a successful season.

    Good baseball game. Hopefully Steele is pitching again in April (but I’m not counting on it).

    boo.

    smyly to face the 2/3/4 hitters with a man on 2nd in extras.

    this doesn't seem like a 8 million dollar managerial decision.

    i 100% agree with you, but i dunno how jed wants to run things.  the default is delay.  i would choose brown.

    like hellfrozeover says, could be smyly since he's technically fresh and stretched.

    anyway, on a pure talent basis....brown is the best option.

  • Childersb3 (view)

    Use pitchers when you believe they're good. Don't plan their clock.

    I'm sorry. I'm simply anti-clock/contract management. Play guys when they show real MLB potential talent.

    If Brown hadn't been hurt with the Lat Strain he would've gotten the call, and not Wick.

    Give him a chance. 

    But Wesneski probably gets it

    alzolay...bro...
