I’m locking my son in his room so I can watch this in peace tonight.

I'm trying to convince people I know into going to the K last minute with me

You sure?

Let's do it!

ROFL

That’s exactly what happens with closed doors in my house!

When my kids were little and I'd close the door on them, they'd lose their shit. I was better off sending them to their rooms with the door open. It's called managing peace. :evil:

I thought you said your record sucked as a thread starter?

Benny up to the 2 hole!

What?! If cmh ends up ****ing up Lynch's debut he needs thread starting privs permanently revoked.

We got this. I'm only like 1-2...

Excited to see Lynch. It will be interesting to see how long they’ll let him go if it comes to that. I’d think something like 5 innings - 60-70 pitches.

So you're personally responsible for 20% of our losses? Great.

Hoping Lynch can at least go 5IP (or more).

Can't do worse than Keller, at least I'm hoping for that.

Nice snag Dyson.

That’s what speed do

Damn the Lynch kid takes no backseat in the ears department to Hochevar. He ever learns to flap those he will fly!

Hopefully Lynch calms down next inning or this is going to be a short outing.

Go take a seat and calm down.

Yikes, Lynch was terrible in the first inning. 2 walks and everyone that hit him hit him hard. Just lucky it was right at the outfielders. That is as lucky as you can get.

A bit of a struggle for him. The Indians look like they are right on his fastball.

It's nice to see Benintendi figuring out his early struggles.

First big league start Id give a pass and hope he settles down.

Aw ****, Sal missed that hanger.

Agreed. Let's see if he calms down how it looks.

They are tattooing Lynch

GOT HIM.

That slider is nasty

Then he makes Naylor look foolish

Yes more of that, please.

Feels like a ton of drama.

That’s the right call.

He's already registered basically every pitching stat you can have.

If he hits this guy I think it's the only thing left on his stat sheet but a W.

Much better 2nd inning

That a way Daniel. Way to hang in there.

Good recovery, kid

Call it a hunch, I don’t think he’s gonna be the pitcher of record. But that’s ok. Get the jitters out now.

Atta kid!

Nice, he's settling down now.

Absolutely

Middle's open!

Nice AB by Lopez after being in the 0-2 hole.

****.

Shit whit.

Whit has been scuffling

Get the kid some runs

Much, much better third inning even with the leadoff walk.

This

His pitch count is back to reasonable too.

C'mon Salvy. Help your pitcher out.

Would be nice to cash in some runs here....

Eh, not the worst thing to happen. It'll do.

That'll do Soler. That'll do.

Soler power

I'll take it.

On the board.

What was that umpire doing

Being a jackass

GD it....

He nailed it.

Nice job Daniel. Way to hang tough.

He’s battling

That a way Dozier!

Yeah, Dozier!

Damn. That was hard hit by Dyson, just first baseman made a nice grab.

Damn it

There ya go Dozier!

Whit Power!!!!!

Gonna waste a leadoff triple.....

WHIT

or not!!!

Way to pick the team up!

WHIT!

Whit!

Whit! Boom!

There we go.

I wonder what kind of pitch count they feel he's worked up to are the training site.

The Kansas City Royals are my favorite professional baseball team
