I'm expecting Darvish to match or come close to what KH did yesterday.

For those who were hoping for Morrow to return and help the pen, just announced that he will be shut down because he didn't respond well after his sessions...

No surprise here.....
2 guys now, Edwards and Morrow gone from the pen that were counted on

I wouldn't be against him signing a league min deal next year just to pay back the team.

I wouldn't be shocked if they greenlight something. The pen is holding up but is not on stable ground now

They can pack his bags and move on from him... he done

They definitely need to add someone or two to the pen, they look ok now, but.....

Not the good one so far

Needs to keep ball down, ball carrying really good today

3 outs were all very soft contact

So fucking disappointing about Morrow. I said from the moment that contract was announced that it did not make sense to depend on an injury prone player to be a closer for a championship contending team. You have to wonder if he will pitch at all season.

Turn on the TV to see Yuseless has already given up three runs, putting us in a hole against Greinke. That wasn't enough. I was then reminded that Chatwood pitches tomorrow.

Nut punch x 2.

Let's get to Greinke and change the mood.

Top 3 probably a big reason why Ricketts cut him off this past offseason ...

Theo great and all but you cant keep covering up mistakes by over spending on others, at some point you gotta let it bleed out and that where their at this year...

Heyward knew he struck out before the ball crossed the plate...

This could be one of those games where it didn't look good early but Darvish bounced back and held them to 3 and offense was able to get to their bullpen late and pull out a win

Is it time yet to change expectations on Kyle Schwarber?

Can you call a guy "catcher", when he never catches a ball.
