I think he only threw one strike to Winn. Absolutely refused to walk.

Bullpen game, so SP is kind of meaningless. Batting 7th there is a chance the SP isn’t even in the game anymore.
Don't ruin a good complaint with logic!😀
Joke's on you cause it doesn't ruin my complaint that Gorman hasn't gotten enough PT... 3rd start in 13 days.
No you primarily complained that he was starting against a tough left hander. Without noting it was a bullpen game and rhe starter doesnt realky matter.

As for his plating time, he really hasn't deserved at bats the way the team has played and with his underwhelming performance. We have done pretty well without him. I have no complaints that he hasn't been playing. He should probably be in the minors but apparently they feel Brant Brown is the right guy to work with him at this time.
Thanks for telling me my own thoughts, I'll be sure to run them by you in the future :roll:

You are most worried about the 2025 team winning, while I am worried about the organization managing their assets as effectively as possible. We are not the same.
Glad to help you with your thoughts you seem a bit confused. As far as winning, the team is playing well and has earned the chance to keep winning. Gorman has had lots of MLB at bats and has regressed. I am not too concerned about putting him ahead of the team at this point.

Yep! Winn loves to swing at those pitches right at his feet too. Very frustrating to watch.

Makes him not good as a leadoff. Wish they would just leave him at 2 hole.

the 1st inning was dominant for Pallante...

starting off in a hole in the 2nd inning....1B and 3B, no outs.

Run is likely to score unless the runner breaks for HP on a ball hit to SS

It's just Stubborn Oli being Oli... He's definitely better at the 2 spot.
