And with 84 pitches after 5, I bet Manny puts him in to start the sixth, too.

This is the only thing that I really don't like about Perez. He can't pitch deep into games. But let's remember that he's basically our #5 right now. That being so, he's done fine. He gives us a chance to win 80% of the time.

Mock should be called up soon. Get rid of Colome.

Sanches in the game. Perez out after only 83 pitches.

I hate a pitcher that can't give his team at least 7 innings.

I can't complain about a pitcher giving up 1 run in 5 innings. This offense is the issue. I can't even think about the pitching, honestly.

When your offense is so inept every thing is perilous. And this offense is, potentially, legendarily inept!

I think you probably would have wanted this move had Perez come out to pitch this inning.

Perez's style screams "long reliever in the making."

Damn. Sick pitch.

I like that slider

Watching Cameron talking to Braun about what he saw from Sanches reminds of what I saw at a Babe Ruth game recently. The leadoff hitter struck out on 3 pitches and it was clear that he just could not catch up to the pitcher's fastball. I was standing by their on deck circle and as he walked back to the dugout the 2 hitter asked him if the pitcher was throwing hard and after fanning badly the kid had the nerve to say "not that hard"
