Waldron has a 7.02 ERA in 14 games (12 starts) this season with El Paso of the PCL. 86 hits and 55 runs (52 earned) in 66 2/3 innings, with a 1.65 WHIP and 10.1 Ks/9. Naturally, we'll likely make him look like a Cy Young candidate.

I promise to turn to the Nats once florida wriggles off the hook yet again

Sanchez hit a single. That's noteworthy

welch · « **Reply #8 on:** June 24, 2023, 09:15:55 pm »

Sanchez should deliver a couple of passed balls

All-star!

You might have to sell high on Lane Thomas at the deadline.

welch · « **Reply #11 on:** June 24, 2023, 09:17:55 pm »

Lane!!

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #12 on:** June 24, 2023, 09:18:21 pm »

Lane was a good get for Rizzo.

And for Jon Lester...wow.

Has anyone here ever heard of Dick "Night Train" Lane? Hall of Fame cornerback for the Rams, Cardinals, and Lions. Each homer tempts we to re-name our RF "Night Train Lane" Thomas.

CJ has potential, I guess

I will always remember Roughned for his schooling of Joey Bats that some baseball players actually know how to throw a punch.

welch · « **Reply #16 on:** June 24, 2023, 09:47:39 pm »

It is almost illegal to walk Sanchez.

welch · « **Reply #17 on:** June 24, 2023, 10:15:10 pm »

Make it a 1-2-3 6th, Josiah.

welch · « **Reply #18 on:** June 24, 2023, 10:19:16 pm »

Why pull Josiah now? Sanchez lashed a hit first time up, but his hitting has sunk almost to zero the last several years.

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #19 on:** June 24, 2023, 10:22:35 pm »

Woah. We made the heads up defensive play?

imref · « **Reply #20 on:** June 24, 2023, 10:22:41 pm »

Didn’t expect that end to the inning. Nice start Jo Jo!

welch · « **Reply #21 on:** June 24, 2023, 10:22:58 pm »

Whoa, nelly! K to Kiebert to Smith to end the inning.

Good Thompson is fun to watch

welch · « **Reply #23 on:** June 24, 2023, 10:40:19 pm »

Fine stint by Mason Thompson.

Nice base running by Lane
