Suter isn't good. When is Anderson back? Guerra? Heck Burnes or Jungmann?

A good send? It was pretty clear Thames had no shot to score once Duvall fielded the ball, as evidenced by being thrown out by 10 feet.

 

10 feet is about half a second of running, so if the throw isn't right on he probably makes it. I've been as critical of Sedar as anyone but with 2 outs I get it. With 0 or 1 out he probably holds him.

Good news is 1st and 2nd nobody out.

 

Bad news is Susac and Suter coming up.

I have more faith in Suter

 

At least he got a bunt down. Susac is just worthless.

I think he knows it to. Takes two strikes down the middle praying for a walk. Then swings at crap

I know Villar has been good lately but my God. You've got 2 runs sitting out there with a single, how do you take strike 3 with 2 out. Just how?

 

Its maddening. These are the same guys that are swinging for the fences down 5 runs ahead in the count with nobody on. For crying out loud, understand the situation. How hard is it? This isn't specifically calling out Villar but numerous times I've seen that situational garbage from these guys.

Andrew Susac has started 2 games for us and I've already seen more of him than I ever care to. He is the worst pitch framer I've ever seen, is a lousy defensive catcher and can't hit. He is awful.

And he's terrible at calling games. Nothing but high cutters from Suter. Wish Suter would shake off once in a while.

Hopefully this is his last start. Bullpen, as a longer guy, fine. He can't be worse than what's currently in place. But starter, just no.

He got rung up on the same pitch you complained that Broxton got rung up on.

Has absolutely nothing to do with what I'm talking about. When it happened to Broxton, there was nobody on. When It happened to Villar, it was a run scoring situation, which calls for more aggression on borderline pitches. I would say that regardless of who was up. I even criticized Broxton in my post and said he's already going to strike out plenty on his own. You don't need to defend Villar in every possible situation when the criticism is clearly warranted.

 

And all that said, no, it wasn't the same pitch. Gameday had Broxton's clearly off the corner. Villar's caught the corner just barely on the edge, which does by the rule qualify as a strike.
