I look at the score and it’s 6-1 and I’m feeling pretty good about things. Where I messed up was not looking to see who was starting for Houston. Burrows is a joke.
Came her from World Cup to ask what the fuck these numbnuts are doing.
You could rightfully ask the same of the USMNT
It occurred to me a minute ago that the closest parallel to Burrows & Imai is Jason Jennings & Woody Williams.
hahahaHAha
Well, son of a buck, we’re back to a one run game.
One of these teams is gonna score 11+ runs and lose.
Well shitfuck. It’s the Astros.
12-11 Nationals is the final.
If only Burrows had found a way to hold the Nats to 8 runs.
Burrows = Jason Alexander = Colton Gordon = J.P. France = Brandon Bielak
I personally think you are insulting every other pitcher in that list by comparing them to Burrows.
After another round of Imai and Burrows, all I can wonder is if Crane will fire Brown after the draft or wait until the offseason.
This likely has been covered ad nauseam, but how the hell do you leave Burrows in to give up 8 runs?
He gave up ten runs.
I know he left men on for the grand slam; I meant only from his pitches.
A better question is why the fuck is he still on the big league roster.
He is fucking awful.
Well, I don’t know why he’s in the rotation so I’m not sure I can help.
If Burrows is allowed to make one more start for this team, one or both of Brown/Espada should be fired. Leaving him in as long as they did tonight was flat out stupid. Burrows has done nothing to earn any kind of trust. He should spend the rest of the season in AAA learning how to locate his pitches and not placing them on a tee at the major league level. He’s killing this team.
Mike Burrows is a yankee?
Chandler Rome stated this morning that Burrows’ ability to go “deep” into games has benefited the team by resting the bullpen.
If you’re conceding 20% of your games, who gives a rat’s ass if your bullpen is rested?
He’s a regular Operation Human Shield.
