IGT #43 5/23 who's your Padre?

[ashie62]

Conforto is the best player on the team.

[Edgy MD]

Harvey comes to the plate.

Keep pouring it on. Chasing the starter early in game one is how you sweep a series.

[Edgy MD]

Sheesh, don't ask Harvey to squeeze.

[Edgy MD]

Wow, Rivera looked like a dead duck and the throw is cut off.

Conforto is a pro, man.

[Frayed Knot]

I dunno, but three or four more runs here in the 1st and they just may 'Harvey-proof' the game.

[ashie62]

Conforto could garner a number of MVP votes.

[Guest 41Forever]

I like this game so far. A lot.

[Edgy MD]

I think we have another blown call at first. Shoulda challenged.

I suspect Terry is just being gracious.

[Edgy MD]

And Harvey comes out and walks a .160 hitter on four pitches.

Or maybe not.
It's the dreaded 'Give-Back' inning again. This entire staff can't seem to master the art of the shut-down frame.

[Guest cooby]

7-2?

[Edgy MD]

Looks like the ump gave Matt a strike on Ball Four again.

[Lefty Specialist]

Harvey is off. Just can't throw strikes, and he looks uncomfortable. And now he walks the pitcher leading off. Jeez.

He'll let them back in this game.

[Edgy MD]

And he walks him.

Best Matthew Broderick baseball connection: He received batting instruction from Charlie Lau in Max Dugan Returns.

[Guest 41Forever]

Walking the pitcher is never a good thing.

[Edgy MD]

Man, he's still not finishing. He's aiming his pitches.

[nymr83]

Harvey is simply a bad player right now. He needs to be in Vegas working out his control issues. Walking thevpiycher with a 5 run lead is a pretty unforgivable sin/sign you have no idea where the ball is going

Sending Harvey to Las Vegas to work on his problems is like sending someone to Colombia for coke rehab.

[Edgy MD]

If anything, the ump and Padre hitters are helping him.

[Edgy MD]

Well, that was about as ugly as a shutout inning can be.

[Lefty Specialist]

Myers really helped him out by swinging at about 4 balls. He was lucky to escape.

Bad ass.

[MFS62]

Harvey, get the ball over the plate!
They gave you a 7 run lead, and you're trying to give it back.
I'm having a John Niese flashback.

Later

[Guest 41Forever]

Conforto-a-BOOM

Remember in the spring when there was talk that he was going to be a fourth outfielder or even go to Vegas to get steady at-bats?

Not gonna happen.

[Lefty Specialist]

Conforto is simply a really good player right now.

[Edgy MD]

Nice to see some tack-on.

I was afraid this flooded basement performance of Harvey's was ruining all their mo.

[Guest cooby]

jo?

I'm having a last week in Milwaukee flashback.

[Ceetar]

I'm hoping there's some some repetitions needed for Harvey off surgery and what not and he'll round out into somewhat closer to his 'norm' by July.

Boy, I hope so, because I can't see having all that much confidence in him right now. Heck, I literally forgot he was in the rotation the other night when explaining rotations to MiniWolf. "It's Wheeler tonight, then Milone, then deGrom, then Gsellman... then whoever the fifth guy is, then Wheeler will pitch again on Thursday." I'm the worst.
