Good first inning from Houser.

 

Eric Lauer continues to punch his ticket to Appleton, though. Where the heck is the pitcher we were supposedly getting from San Diego?

Houser was impressive. Don't have high hopes but maybe he will be more 2019 and less 2020.

 

With regards to Lauer, never understood why anybody thought he was anything. Was thoroughly unimpressive pitching for San Diego and was terrible pitching outside of Petco. This bad, I suppose not, but I never wanted him in our rotation.

The Indians loaded up on lefties to face Adrian Houser today. :)

 

In all seriousness, improving against LHH will go along way towards determining what type of role he’s going to be able to maintain throughout the season.

 

If Tribe was truly loading up the lefties in the lineup, Bradley Zimmer/ Eddie Rosario/ Bobby Bradley & a few others would be in the lineup mix today...

 

-----------------------------------

Yu Chang (RH) is in a battle for utility role in CLE. He is capable of playing all across the INF & was a part of the Lucroy deal that was voided in 2016..

 

Think there is any interest by MKE to get Chang now??

My first time hearing Ueck this year. Loving it!

 

Game also being broadcast back to Ohio. Getting to hear Tom Hamilton (WI native).

He was telling multiple stories about Lauer today (played against one of Tom's son in High School & went to Kent St for college where another of Tom's sons played & went to college world series)..

I know it's only been two innings, but Aaron Ashby looks like he might just be something.

 

Yup. He might be up in the bigs this year.

Sounds like Luis Urias left the game with some sort of leg injury suffered while running to first base after hitting into a double play.

 

Per Adam McCalvy:

 

Luis Urias was limping after a groundout here in Scottsdale and drew a visit from the athletic trainers. He walked off on his own but he's out of the game now. We will effort an update.

Not just “at Night” anymore.
