Andy young flies out to center to end the inning.

[Ronin]

[Ronin]

Pitch count at 42

 

[Azjose86]

Put Bum out of his misery please.

 

[Ronin]

Peralta didn’t even move on that one. Lol

 

[Azjose86]

Lmao. The guy is throwing batting practice fastballs out there. 87mph with no movement

 

[BC867]

I don't see why he isn't everyday DH for now. I'm okay with him taking AB's away from Lamb & Jay.

Because Torey, in his rigid proclamations, announced that DH would be a rotating position.

Just as I accepted the necessity for the National League to adopt the DH to be competitive
with the American League (and the rest of the world), treating it differently from the other
eight positions in the batting order makes it a hit-or-miss proposition.

As I've said before. it is like shooting at a moving target, which makes it difficult to succeed.

 

[GatorAZ]

Do we still have the receipt for Bustgardner?

 

[thirty-two]

We are getting destroyed, lol!

 

[thirty-two]

Can we just call game and be done?

 

[1Sun]

This would be an excellent time to pull the plug, rip off the band-aid and fire Torey.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Ugh ome good gm followed by a crappy one repeat

Lol least suns are balling...

 

[AZCB34]

MadBum will be on the IL soon...shut down for the remainder...which further saves Torey.

This team already looks like they have given up today.

 

[Azjose86]

What's the mercy rule?

 

[BC867]

I watch the progress (make that regress) here, but I am glad I have stopped staring at the tube for three hours a day.

No one has mentioned the score, so I'll check that on my Scoreboard screen.

Madbum started. That’s all you need to know.

 

[Lefty]

Shut Bum down for the rest of the season. Something is wrong.

 

[BC867]

Lol 9 to 0 Padres fun isn't it

The "to zero" is just as bad as the "nine".

Gee, if the D-backs could hit they would be a good team if they could pitch.

 

[AZCB34]

And they are being no hit through 5 2/3

 

[AZ Native]

I was hoping we would not to make major changes during a shortened 60 game season but something has to be done. And it always falls on the manager, it goes with the territory.

 

[Bobster]

Did Bumgarner just take our money and run? He is looking more and more like Russ Ortiz or Shelby Miller with each appearance.

I was thinking of Russ Ortiz too.

 

[az240zz]

I was thinking of Russ Ortiz too.

Sure looks like it. This team looks as if it wasn't ready for the restart.

 

[1Sun]

It clearly wasn't, and that falls 100% on Torey Lovullo.
