Besides being totally enthralled and mesmerized by Shohei's 1,075 OPS, and on a much smaller scale--- How about Marsh's OPS being .846? What a great accomplishment! More at bats and he'd be around the top 20 in the league.....

[bkox]

Would like to see Rojas in the game instead of Cave.. I know its against a RHP.. but Rojas needs the chance to show he can hit both LH and RH... PLUS... he actually has even splits so far

[BostonRoss]

I agree with you since the defense would also be improved. I wonder whether the fact that Cave might have seen Giolito a lot since they were in the same division for a few years. What we shouldn’t do, though, is jump to the conclusion that Thomson is biased toward veterans.

Trea Turner just saved 2 runs

[HopeSpringsEternal]

Well, could have been a lot worse. Hope that Walker rights the ship from here on out. He’s done it in the recent past after early struggles

[LoneStarPhan]

Escape with only one run is pretty good considering the HBP followed by 3 hits.

The hits were two ground balls that went through to the outfield and the bunt for a hit by Moniak, so maybe Walker will be okay tonight.
