Dreaded topic of conversation at KNBR this morning: Casilla.
Giants have never faced Aaron Blair (new guy; debuted against NYM this year).
Braves leading series 2-1.

>>68045061
That's awesome. What is it about the Braves bringing up these comfy paired players that turn out to be "ok" or shit (or at least don't live up to expectations/move on).
>McCann & Frenchy

Hey its only St Louis up next .. oh shit
>Basketball jersey at a baseball game
>>68045438
Fuck St. Louis.
>>68044828
Nah its gonna be Kershit again or Pilates boy
>FUCK
Hahahhaha
>>68045473
>Kershit TJS
>Arrieta busted for Performance-enhancing pilates
the fuck was that
So how do you guys feel about 2 out of 4 against the Barves?
I think its shit considering the Doyers played the Cubs at Wrigley and literally no ground was made.
craw why
>>68045481
Ha! He's gonna get fined. Worth it.
>>68045531
If the cubs win today it's alright
The real loss for this series wasn't the losses, per se, but Pence. There's still a four and a half game gap between second in the NL West
>>68045531
Makes me hate Casilla even more desu
>bullpen
Wonder who's going to give BUM those two ERs
>Bullpen only lights-out when the lead is huge or we're getting BTFO
>Always give up runs with a close lead
Thank you based strickland
pls leave him in next inning, bochey
>>68045555
Nice quads. But yeah theres a 3 game set against LA later this month which makes 4.5 GA uneasy plus June swoon.
How bad is it for Pence? I know its currently on the 15 day DL.
>>68045568
I don't know what to feel about Casilla anymore.
But I do know a new closer is required if the even year bullshit is to continue:
2010 - Wilson
2012 - Romo
2014 - Casilla
2016 - ???
>>68045531
Really upset, honestly. Not making excuses, but it pisses me off that:
1) A late-night flight from Moon-Base Coors to Atlanta seemed to fuck all the dudes up for a DAY game on Monday (wtf?) and seeing Shark have such an awful game was disheartening
2) Suarez's awesome game being totally ruined by motherfucking Santiago "I love da Lord and da Bible and my manager doesn't believe in me so I'm gonna be a whiney bitch" Casilla
Just a fucked up way to lose two games to such a shitty team.
Bum's sub 2 era preserved.
>>68045531
To make it worse, the Dodgers play the Braves next and will probably sweep
I told you fucks not to get cocky. I said we're only an injury away from us letting this season slip away and then Pence gets hurt. No Pagan, no Pence, no Cain who did great in his last few starts and looked awesome
We still got this, I just hate all these people who think it's easy. The Dodgers will always be a thorn in our side
>>68045744
Casilla fucked up but Suarez started putting guys on base in the 6th
>>68045723
2016 - Propane man
>>68045700
>one out
>"lights out"
>>68045723
Casilla has given up 5 runs so far. 4 of them were in 1-run games. I don't know if that's just terrible luck or if he just can't handle pressure. But it's really frustrating that he can strike out the side with a 3-run lead, and chokes with only 1 run to work with.
>>68045762
Who's cocky? Every year my butthole is clinched until we get to September/October.
for fucks sake
>6.02 ERA in AAA
>>68045830
Some shitposting casuals in the /mlb/ generals. Obviously not everybody is, it just seems like when people start talking about how great they are that's when it all goes to shit
>>68045828
He's a bit of a pussy, dude. Like, a softy, and it catches up to him. He looks like a guy that would fuck you up, but he's this big humble, sensitive bible-thumper that can't handle certain things. He's got the stuff, he just, yeah, I think you're right, he can't handle pressure.
STRICKLAND CAN THROW MORE THAN 1/3 OF AN INNING
WHY, BOCHEY
>>68045911
But aren't /mlb/ generals just for shitposting anyway?
>>68045915
I really think he'd do fine as a set-up man. But he really shouldn't be going in there with a small lead to close out a game.
>>68045922
He wants to make sure Propane man is ready when he's ready. Then, we will see the closer of the future, today.
>>68045911
>he doesn't shitpost smug giants pepes in /mlb/
>>68045951
>tfw remembering Romo in his glory days
Damn man, Casilla would set up, Romo would knock down.
>>68045977
Romo's apparently doing well in AAA rehab
>>68045915
His confidence is shaken pretty bad lately, you can tell. You've just gotta let pitches fly, you can't be timidly trying to aim the ball which is how he looks lately. He used to get ahead in the count against almost every batter but recently he's been falling behind and the hitters have the advantage
>tfw Timmy could have been the closer
>>68045977
Bochy doesn't use Romo correctly. He has some of the best stats in the game against righties, but is awful against lefties. He should be used as a righty specialist and not a closer.
>>68046025
The Bochy thing shook him pretty hard too. But he needs to get over that and let his manager manage. Like Shark said "He's a future HoFer, I'll let him make the decisions"
Rip ball park
nice
GG, braves
