Has anybody told Ross yet that Michael Fulmer might actually just be bad and not to give him meaningful innings?

Not sure if Ross has no other options or if he is just bad.

I mean he could give Alzolay, one of our supposed longmen, more than one inning for once to start things.

Good. All those decorum "unwritten rules" are dumb as hell and need to be dropped. gently caress decorum. The game's not over 'til it's over. If the other team puts in a position player, demolish him. Run up the score as much as you can. That's the price you pay for resting your relievers.

I will never understand why some people demand that guys stop doing their best. Why should any hitter sacrifice their own stats just so they don't hurt the other team's feelings? gently caress that. If you don't want a team running up the score, lobby the league to implement a softball-style mercy rule. :colbert:

That's my insane rant.

A hit for everyone in the lineup tonight, a run for everyone except Albies.

my stance has always been that "dont run up the score" ceases to have effect once you can vote

you dont like em scoring, stop em from scoring, you're a grown-rear end man.

Atlanta has hit 5 2-run homers. That's all their scoring.

Whoops forgot about those two doubles.

I'd say that has to be a record, but I'm sure there is some team in 1901 that hit 12 2-run bombs and it was by one player. That player being Tungsten-Arm O'Doyle.

I also just saw that HBP, and I have no idea how Manny Machado is still in the game. It looks like it hit him about 2-3 inches above the wrist. I know it's only 80mph, but that still loving hurts.

Feels like just yesterday Fulmer was an "empty your farm to trade for this guy" kind of prospect

Oh yeah I remember there was a ton of chatter years ago about the Cubs moving a haul to try and get him. He was a rookie darling and then between injuries and just kind of falling off his career spiraled. It looked like last year he may have reinvented himself as a great bullpen option but so far it's been an absolute trainwreck this year.

Wood looks gassed but that was a strong 4 innings. Need to get him stretched out and banish Manaea or Stripling to the bullpen ASAP

I dog on Montero a lot but I saw that he has a .444 BABIP against despite his soft hit ball percentage being really high so hopefully it evens out

The Padres now have three times the walks as hits. How many runs have they gotten despite this bounty of baserunners? Three.

He’s been incredible man. After how up and down his rookie year was this has been so encouraging. Would be awesome to try and get him some more run against lefties and see how he holds up.

Can't believe Michael Wacha had a no-hitter through 7. Also more surprised that the Padres didn't end up blowing that game.
