Does Santana have any real chance of sticking in CF as the guy of the future there? Not s sarcastic question, I'm honestly wondering.

"You gotta have someone with experience at the top."

 

No you don't. Shut up, Brian.

He's played about 13 games in CF in the minors. We traded for a guy named Maverick Phillips.

[bthurley19]

DOMINGO! That was a really good at bat before turning it around. Fouled off a couple tough ones and layed off to get to 3-2. Looks like he's got some quick hands for being so tall. Reminds me a lot of Corey Hart with the body type.

[Boomer5]

Santana already with as many HRs as Gomez has for Houston.

 

On the other hand....Fiers is having a very good game.

[AKCheesehead]

Wow does he ever, no hitter through 6. 94 pitches though.

[torts]

107 thru 7 no hit innings

About 34 years ago Nolan Ryan no hit the Dodgers as an Astro. Just sayin.

[AKCheesehead]

Yeah he's dealing, it's on MLB here. I wonder if the Astros made him lose the neck beard or if he did that of his own accord. I wonder, if I were an MLB manager, at what point does a pitch count matter when a no-no is on the table?

[TURBO]

I hate, HATE, the Bucks commercial that is played constantly each game on tv...The commercial is just plain obnoxious.

[gypcasino]

About a million years ago a Brewers pitcher had a no hitter

I don't no if there is even a limit for a healthy pitcher...maybe 130-135. Then again you won't hit that until at least the 9th...so how could you even pull the guy out at that point.

IMO...it doesn't. Not unless they're in obvious pain or discomfort. Maybe if it's a young arm on a strict pitch count.

I'm not necessarily a replay guy, but if it had been in place in '08, that might be a different story.

[AKCheesehead]

I agree with adam and plush. Let a no hitter ride. I was glad Fiers didn't lose Pederson there in the 8th.

[AKCheesehead]

Congrats to Kyle Lohse on his first career save tonight, too.

Are you referring to the CC one hitter game? Because that was just a scoring decision and the league could have actually changed that after the game but elected not to, they wouldn't have reviewed that.

 

My bad if you're referring to an entirely different game.

I was at that cc game, its a no hitter in my mind

[Boomer5]

He got it. Of course.

[AKCheesehead]

Awesome for Fiers. Love that he did it to the Dodgers, too.

[torts]

That was awesome, so happh for mike

[TURBO]

Fiers = Bosio

[AKCheesehead]

It was the cc game I was referring to. I guess I may have mis-spoken there, remembering now that replay doesn't cover hit vs error.

[LouisEly]

For what he went through in 2013, if there's anyone who deserves it, it is him.

 

[sarcasm]But he's just a #4-5 starter.[/sarcasm]
