Nootbaar's 1st AB tonight is why I'm not fond of his play....you need to cover the plate and swing at a ball that close....thankfully Winn got the 2 run single to give us the lead....

Crooks defense is very underwhelming ...

Glad they didn’t challenge strike 3!

McGreevy with a solid start. Deserved the win.

Speaking of Winn, couple of great defensive plays and 3 rbi!

We can't expect the team to thrive as long as Marmol has to play this game of mixing and matching AAA players. As far as I can see we're okay in RF, 1B, 2B, SS, and catcher. That's it. Pitching staff has been better than I expected, although for sure not great. We've got to find some real pop at 3B and LF.

If we had a LF and 3B who could actually hit we could live with good field no hit types at C and CF. Baez is working his way up and may help solve the OF issues but by the time he gets here and figures it out Walker might be gone. I'm not aware of anyone in the system now that projects as a plus 3B. So there is work to do for sure.

Brick by brick. This is a 78-81 win team imo, there just happens to be a lot of parity with really only 1 team head and shoulders above. They will get there, but it can’t be fixed this season. I enjoy watching this group play, you can see a core start to develop an identity with the positional players. I can’t wait to see who the dogs become on the pitching staff.

I'd take a look at Baez's strikeout rate. Until those improve quite a bit, I wouldn't want to bring him up, even with all the power he has shown.

Pages continues to show incompetence. 2 AB, 2 strikeouts looking. 3 of May’s walks, he could have challenged a pitch, one would have been a strikeout. There was a wild pitch, but he made no effort to move his body and block the ball.
