Well, the good news is that Suppan went pretty deep last night, so the bullpen should be in good shape for today.

 

On a side note, I like Karros' commentary so far. Pretty astute observations on Parra right there, and he seemed to know a lot when Telly interviewed him last night.

Manny...do you know Ben hendrickson?
Hope he gets to know Angel Salome tomorrow.

 

This is brutal. Looks like I'm gonna be able to get outside and enjoy the day a lot earlier than expected.

And we continue to embarrass ourselves on national TV. If only we could throw Yo out there to prove to the nation we are a legit team...
I'm sorry but this is a dumb statement. One game doesn't prove poop to the nation or anyone else. It's another game in June and maybe a few more people are seeing it.

 

I'd be more worried about our mental midget lefty right now.

Manny's ERA has risen to above 7. How is he still on the team? This is really getting brutal to watch.
I still assert he needs some time in the bullpen to get right and let McClung start for a couple of months. His small sample size is getting larger.

That's a little harsh, IMO...Hendrickson was a junkballer who couldn't get guys out. Parra's got good stuff but can't control it. Jorge de la Rosa seems like a better comparison to me.

I'd think they have to send him down after today, that is 4 brutal games in a row now.

 

Hendrickson never put up good stats even in the minors, he just had a flukey low ERA one season. Pretty different situation. Parra also had success in the majors before this year which little Ben never did.

It has been interesting to see how Eric Karros has basically been calling out Parra this entire game on not having the mental toughness to pitch well on a consistent basis. This is a pretty brutal outing thus far for Parra.

Yea, you are right. I'm just fustrated with him. Have (had) high expectations for him to really step in to a key role this year. Espically with his age and the years that we have him under control. Guys like this are keys to keeping things rolling and not having to dip into the FA market for starters.
