    Castro is our Brad Ausmus.

    Bottom of order is killing us.

    And he is not good enough defensively to be adequate as a starter. That's something we need to figure out in the offseason.

    I don't think it would be shocking to see Conger get more starts as the end of the year approaches.

    I'll rephrase that. He's good defensively but not elite.

    Seeing eye singles made that inning intriguing.

    Yeah, they're good. They don't treat the listener like a child who's never seen a baseball game before. It's an intriguing strategy, I wish certain other announcers would try it.

    Being a triple short of the cycle is like being 1 girl short of a threesome.

    eh, getting to that point through 4 innings is like getting the first girl to say "ok, I might be up for that.."

    Carter needs to get in front of that ball. He was hugging the line and just lazily put his glove out.

    Indians arent killing the ball here.

    Keuchel needs to pitch through it.

    Would getting another double be the same as a dude walking up and saying "so I over heard y'all..."

    How the hell did Carter not knock that down at least? Tough luck for Keuchel on that one.

    Questioning Carter defensive miscues is like being 1 girl short of a threesome.
