The pit
Castillo getting lit up like a pinball machine in the first.
His FB velocity seems to be down a tick a 95-97. He’s not hitting 99-100 mph anymore. Might be time for him to skip a start.

4 runs is nothing for our boys in blue. We got this.

Hell give me a bat I'll knock one out of there for you guys!

maybe we should just start the inning with two outs?

I'm concerned and didn't he pitch for that stupid world baseball thing prior and during ST?
He's electric when himself but something has been off this season..
I think he needs a couple starts off with whatever needs to be done to amp up his
arm.
I hate to think this is looking like Rays last few starts last season and this season.
Bring up Dollard for a couple please.

SS starts Wong again and it leads to an unearned run via error. Dude has a -1.2 WAR. Just how bad is a -1.2 WAR? There have been over one thousand players to either bat or pitch so far this season.

Wong isn't in the top one thousand.

Castillo did not pitch in the World Baseball Classic before the season.

He's been struggling the last few games.

I'd be willing to bet the Red Sox were pretty motivated tonight after that beat down the M's put on them last night. They also have an awfully good offense. 3rd in all of MLB in team batting average, runs scored, and OPS.

We're not going to win them all. Especially against teams with a much better offense than ours. If we can get that win tomorrow, and win the series, I'd consider that a successful trip to Boston.

Maybe because he was going to be a FA.

Now that he got the bag, quality has dropped.

Yoshida would had fit in perfect with the Mariners as DH.
