* end the season today please

Technically yes, they have the best record of the non-division leaders. They'd host the Yankees in the wild card play-in game.

Rios appeared a bit gimp after the play. It was well hit deep though. Their outfield got to a lot of balls today that I thought might sneak in.

its a mystery. The only explanation is that he badly misjudged the ball. Gordon was pulling up as if "welp, thats the 3rd out, damn it", and the crowd was stunned when it dropped.

Jesus, Detroit plays Houston three more times next week. Oh well, we'll eventually get our Houston games too. If we're within 2 games after Wednesday, I'll be happy.

very fun fact.....no team in the majors has less losses than the Royals

I would like to hear what Robin Ventura was thinking when he intentionally walked Chris Getz. Should be quite the conversation.

That's Hillman-esque in its indefensible stupidity.

Falu Triple and Lough base hit, walk off in 10th for Omaha. Well done, guys.

Hoch is right where he needs to be. He is not starter material but is perfect in a setup or closer role.

We had four players see over 20 pitches today...including Frenchy.

Gordon, Butler, Moose, and Frenchy saw a combined 90 pitches. That is a great sign.

...

you think he has a closer mentality?

the best we can hope for is this nice stretch is giving him some confidence and maybe we could end up making a quality starter out of him after all

I highly doubt it...but he's been excellent so far this year.

Saul Good 05-05-2013 05:56 PM

Hoch is what he is. He can eat up some low pressure innings, but I can't imagine ever wanting him to pitch in important situations ever again.

Maybe we can trade him for another Guthrie. Who else is secretly really good on the Rockies that they don't want?

I think this song is fitting here. Plus it is a bad ass song.
