He has good breaking stuff.  It's just a matter of command with him.  He has to live on the corners and the edge of the strike zone. 

That slider is nasty!

Did the meat expire or was the bread moldy?

Is Braxton not watching the baserunners?  A lot of stolen bases against a lefty

Game over

Cool, cool.

 

eh Brax isn't an answer either.   Struggled to get through the first 3 innings anyway and then this mess.   

Who else is available.

Welp.... There's that.  The worst part is that was the only hard hit ball off of him.  The rest were walks and soft hits.  He has to trust his stuff more.

Just have to wait for Meyer and Luzardo to get healthy.  Hoeing is in AAA but not in 40 man and he was just promoted to AAA.  Braxton will probably get another start or two.

whatever happened to Nick Neidert?   Figured he would be a good callup once in a while.  

 

Actually maybe he's injured...

He was taken off of the 40 man roster and cleared waivers. He was supposed to transition to the bullpen down there.   He did for a while but he started a game the other night.

We're gonna have to wait until 2024 for Luzardo unfortunately.

With Eury Meyer and Cabrera all up in the rotation by then (or Eury pretty damn close to being called up)

Given the track history of this FO? Yes he is. But not until March.

I get that history, but the MRI came back clean.  There's nothing to repair.
