Treinen relieved Hatcher.

[LoneStarPhan]

Pinto puts up a solid inning. Bullpen has been pretty good again today. I still hold the sixth inning accountable to Mackanin, but that's just my opinion.

Final

[LoneStarPhan]

Hoskins Ks again swinging at a ball well out of the strike zone. He has had a bad series against the A's. Hopefully he will feast of Dodger pitching.

Not a very satisfying game. Phillies leave a runner on third multiple times. Both teams end with six hits, but Oakland rides the home run with all six runs scoring on a home run.

Put one in the 1.1 column, although I feel pretty certain that the Phillies will end up drafting 1.2 or 1.3 next June.

[nycphils]

What was Alvarez's stuff like?

[Austinfan]

He was throwing 92-94, sinking FB, 89 changeup? a couple curves and a slooow curve.
He looked really good for 3 innings, then ran out of steam, which isn't surprising.
Showed enough to watch his next two starts and get an invite to ST.

[LoneStarPhan]

Alvarez left with a lead even though he was charged with 4 runs and the loss. In hindsight, he probably should have been lifted after 5 innings but that was not evident at the time. Milner came in and got a K and then gave way to Ramos, who ended up giving up the grand slam to a LH batter. He earned his blown save, but in my mind, Mackinan gets an assist.

[Austinfan]

Thing to remember with Alvarez is he should be stronger in six months, shoulder surgery used to be the kiss of death for pitchers, now they're bouncing back more often.
It took Morgan 2 years to get his velocity back (then it jumped some more in the bullpen) so Alvarez should be stronger by spring.
I think these three starts are an audition, and they're going to push him a little to see if the shoulder is healthy.
But unless he totally tanks, I think he'll remain on the 40 man roster and have a shot at a starting job in ST.

[phillychuck]

I saw Alvarez's velocity topping at 90, 88 was a cutter.
