Clippard 8 walks in 10.1 IP this year. Tied for third most in NL for relievers. Henry is tied for 2nd with 9. Marmol 1st with 10.
Longest Game Day Thread of the Year!
Even though he only gave up 2 runs, too bad our ace didn't crush this team. Instead he walked batters and had the leadoff man on in 5 of 6 innings. Plus, they now realize the bullpen is no good, and we can't get a clutch hit. Tough to be encouraged.
What will read about Strasburg in the postgame? Just couldn't get a feel for my pitches? The mound was funky in my landing area? I was getting squeezed? I just couldn't locate? I'm glad I got it going in the 6th inning?
Another couple games like this and it will be time to get the Fire Davey thread going. Zero energy level on this team, no accountability.
Our ace gets his chance on Wednesday. Our #1 starter hasn't won a game in a month, he's nobody's ace.
This is not a World Series team. They have less fortitude than a fortress made of blankets and pillows.
I really think we miss Zimmerman, funky throws and all. He lengthens the lineup.
The first inning troubles are kind of annoying but let's not pin this game on him. The offense let Teheran off the hook and Clippard pissed the game away by walking the #8 hitter.
we may have found our low leverage reliever.
Maybe this is the max effort for this team. If that's the case then it's a Fire Rizzo time because he put together a crappy roster.
