This piggyback BS is really looking like it'll work out this game.
Maybe no relief pitching used.

Oh shit I jinxed it!
Other than Castillo being all pissed off for being pulled and Dan and him having a very awkward discussion in the dugout about it.....
Maybe they decided a sneak attack approach to taking him out of the game would work best before he gets to the point of implosion..?

Either way I think you should give your starter 5 innings when they've earned it since mlb won't give them wins unless they go 5. And he earned it..

I know the outcomes were great, but just for the record, Dipoto sucks. I hope he goes bald.

Mariners win! We're HEROES!!!

Sweep this series and we'll be in first at 28-29.
First at 28-29 would be hilariously sad. I'll take it!

Being angry at getting taken out is better than asking to be taken out isn't it? You guys want emotional players don't you, fire in the belly? But everytime a player shows some emotion he seems to get criticized for it here. Damn right, be pissed off about getting taken out, show some fight. That's what this team seems to be lacking. I like seeing that, this team just seems to be going through the motions

:lol: Seems like Castillo wanted to stay in but how much better would his life and sense of well being been if he woke up this morning 2-5 instead of 1-5. I don't think anyone under the age of 80 still cares about pitcher wins.....

Of course but how in the absolute hell did he not know that he was pitching a max of four innings. These idiots have the communications skills of a garbage disposal....

Why was Miller unhappy, didn't he get the win?

Miller was pissed after PB1. After getting pulled, he was shaking his head before he crossed the first base line. He had harsh words post game, almost divisive. Neither Castillo nor Miller want this BS at all. I was in a profession where "double teaming" was occasionally necessary - it's never pleasant to share your work unless it's the nature of the work. There are 2/6 unhappy guys in the rotation and something's got to give.

Trade Castillo and Canzone for Wilyer Abreau. Boston needs help and east coast teams love their Italian players. Insert Abreau in RF, Move Raley to left, and make Randy full time DH.

Boy talk about one big kick in the ass for Castillo, Diss!

Way to boost his confidence guys, taking him out with a big lead while he’s cruising, so he can’t win the game!

What a WEIRD organization!
