Probables:

E. Hancock RHP 2-1

S. Burke RHP 2-2

L. Castillo RHP 0-3

A. Kay LHP 1-1

L. Gilbert RHP 2-3

D. Martin RHP 5-1

2-1, make it so.

Last start by Castillo started out promising, then same old. I get a feeling this is his last start before being moved to the bullpen. I honestly think he would be good in long relief.

About the time Bryce Miller becomes available.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

No doubt. The abundance of starting pitching is a great problem to be dealing with very soon. That Ferrer trade is looking better and better. That kid has some fire in him. I guess he told Dan "Give me the ball"
Love it.

 

[Blazenhawks]

2–1, scoring more than four runs in each game.

 

[Ruminator]

This is going to be a damn good road trip. The feeling I have, anyway.

 

[Goldfinger 007]

GRAND DAMN SLAM!!!!!

 

[Goldfinger 007]

Well that lead didn't even last an inning. SMH.
Seattle Mariners special. Get an early lead for once in a thousand games & give it right back up. Every time they actually get a few runs, the starters decide not to get anybody out.

 

[Bobblehead]

M's it seems could have easily gotten that Japanese player.

 

[Sperrydogg]

Luke!!! He is your father.

M's it seems could have easily gotten that Japanese player.

We didnt need first base... and we were trying to reduce strikeout rate over hrs. Only place he would have fit is full time DH.. which is silly.

He has like a 43 percent strike out rate... low walk rate.. hes Geno.. but at first base.. we have a better first baseman

Also.. as a minor stat point... That Muri has twice as many strikeouts as Josh in the same amount of ABs..

 

[Chapow]

It's almost like it'll be OK if Raley has to face 1 left handed reliever in the middle innings so that he's still in there in the late innings. Crazy concept, I know.

 

[Sperrydogg]

Naylored it

None of that foolery sir.. Logic has no place in baseball!

 

[sutz]

Most runs all season. Raley with career high 7 RBI on 2 homers. Most of the lineup contributing, but Cal still looks lost.

Hancock struggles a bit but gets the win by lasting 6 while giving up 5 runs. Bullpen gets some work for recent pickups. Not perfect but held the win, at least.

Nice way to start the road trip.

 

[Bobblehead]

3x the amount of HR's, RBI's and as much as he strikes out he walks as well.

I wouldn't say 28 walks is a low walk rate..sure it's a moot point... just having fun.

 

[Atradees]

With 19 wins the Ms are 5th in the American league. Time to shake up the starting pitching. Kade and Miller in. Castillo to the pen. It seems time to do something aggressive.

 

[Crizilla]

If Castillo gets smashed tonight then agreed this should be it for him
