If they throw Kowar 3 innings I expect the Padres to score 10 runs.

I like the hustle from Eaton. He'll make some mistakes but he'll make some great catches too! IMO he's a better OF than Olivares, Melendez, Dozier, and Isbel!!!! If Eaton could only hit.....

I'm a better outfielder than Oliveras is.

LMAO!!!!

Ah great now the Royals thread is going to DC.

Vinny and Salvy had some hard hit balls in that inning that just didn't make it through.

It's kinda bad. How Bad Is It? It's kinda bad when your LF & CF combined are BARELY breaking .200 BA

Yeah but they can catch the ball well!

Bradley plays way to often.

Way to set 'em up Mike! Nice DP.

That swing by MJ almost looked like a safety swing to waste the pitch.
