Great work Craig recapping Lynch's debut! I agree that he was basically so so, but not bad for a debut. I'm a little worried that the train might be close to a derailment. The hitting and defense continues to be hit and miss and last night was another great example of such. A couple timely hits and better defense and we are talking about Lynch getting his 1st MLB victory. Whit has to make that throw on the double play. To me though the more frustrating defensive miscue was the wild pitch by Barlow, at least that's how it was scored. In my opinion that was a pitch that Salvy got lazy on, which he does from time to time trying to glove it instead of making an effort to slide over and block. In the end does it make a difference if the inning ended 3-2 instead of 3-3 I don't know. I kind of feel like tonight is a must win with Bieber going tomorrow. Need a solid outing from Minor and our bats to rough up the rookie!
