No Jasson Dominguez yet! Time for Jones to solidify his place on the team by doing well against Trey Yesavage.
I’m sure they’ll be shutout by him, though, instead.
Martian’s in the lineup game 2 ar Scranton. Sounds like we won’t see him this weekend,
This is the RHP platoon. Against LHPs it will be phenom SS, Cabby RF, and Rosario 3b.
Kirk comes back in time to torture us. Did Grisham take a poor route?
Weathers gives out HRs likes its Halloween candy.
Suboptimal, Weathers.
Suboptimal.
What the fuck is with the Jay’s uniforms? Holy mother of hideous.
Weathers officially sucks. A long double by Kirk and a monster home run by Okamoto. Last 5 games before tonight 31 runs in 17 innings.
Mr. Top 15 catcher Ks with the bases loaded and 1 out.
Boone thinks he’s a good hitter
MLBTR Overall, Guardians catchers are batting .210/.265/.326 with a 65 wRC+. That mark is fifth-worst in the Majors and well below the 89 wRC+ Can Cleveland win the AL Central with a hole in the lineup like this?
This one is done. Weathers is a disaster.
Weathers was a nice pickup. Not so sure I want Weathers in the pen or anywhere but Pennsylvania.
Former Yankee #7 prospect 22yo Henry Lalane tonight 6ip 0r 2h 9K. Last 4 games 1r, 8h, 30Ks over 21.2 innings.
Imai gets a 9-run lead in the first and makes it through 2/3 of an inning before being lifted.
Weathers couldn’t wait to get back out there and walk the leadoff hitter. Then Bird wings into action.
Grisham hurt.
Right hamstring “tightness.”
Bases loaded not being kind to the Yankees tonight.
A good time for Cruz to give up runs.
Misiorowski with a 1-hitter, 15 Ks, O BB, 95 pitches while facing the minimum batters.
Boone “Weathers was ok. Just some 2 strike mistakes. Stuff’s good.”
Lombard 1-4 with a home run, up to 728 which is not too bad for a 21 yo in AAA, He’s at 865 in June. Martian 1-4 with a home run. For some reason Boone was non comittal about bringing him up. I can’t imagine Grisham being able to play tomorrow.
Boone doesn’t want to give up Volpe just yet. My bet is that they’ll do Volpe at short, Cabby in right field tomorrow if Grisham says he’s feeling good enough to play in the next couple of days.
But yes, even if Grisham doesn’t hit the IL, the OBVIOUS move is to just call up Dominguez and send Volpe down, so that you have ACTUAL outfielders filling in for Grisham for the next couple of days (as I agree, even if he’s feeling better, the odds of him playing the next two days seem slim).
Weathers has been unhittable at times this season, and he’s gotten no run support. I wouldn’t go crazy over this.
He was also 0-2 or 1-2 on so many batters – then he couldn’t put them away , or suddenly didn’t think he could and walked them.
Probably because he’s not used to giving up homers – wasn’t that never his problem before this season?
It seems like a thing that could be figured out.
