Phew. Tie game. I was about to be so mad if we made this guy throw 40 pitches in an inning and didn’t score.

 

[LordVOLdemort]

Dang, they are about to pull this old boy.

 

[peerless98]

Walk is as good as a hit, well, sort of

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

A walk will tie this thing up.

BINGO !!! GBO !!! Bases still loaded w/2 out,

 

[peerless98]

Ferguson, do some damage

 

[Switch 625]

These stressful innings take a toll on pitchers.

 

[volz2wallz]

Come on BLADE!!!

 

[LordVOLdemort]

Dang Fergy come on

 

[cobbwebb0710]

These stressful innings take a toll on pitchers.

And spectators!
GBO!!

 

[Switch 625]

Swing the dang bat!!!

Jeezs Ferguson

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Well....not ideal. At least we tied it, but he threw 45 pitches and you only get 1 hit in the entire inning. Pretty gross.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Thats just a terrible AB

 

[VolBalls33]

100 pitches thrown through 2 innings and the score is only 1 to 1!!

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

What is going on with him

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Swing the dang bat!!!

With bases juiced, you gotta go down swinging!
GBO!!

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

With bases juiced, you gotta go down swinging!
GBO!!

Yes that was terrible

 

[VolBalls33]

And also almost an hour to play 2 innings. Baseball is weird sometimes.

 

[VolnJC]

With bases juiced, you gotta go down swinging!
GBO!!

Gotta move Max down and Steenstra up

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

With bases juiced, you gotta go down swinging!
GBO!!

You'd think he knows to do that very thing. Oh, well ..... get'em next at bat.

Ferguson is not himself this season. Arguably the best prospect on this team to start the year and he looks completely lost. It’s a big IF, but if he ever figures out his issues it would help immensely come post-season.

Good luck this weekend.

Just a brief synopsis of Florida so far. Nothing has been "bad", but nothing has been as good as it was supposed to be.

Lineup is that way.
Starting pitching is that way. Main issue is control problems which are not typical of an O'Sullivan team.
The other thing is that they have the ability to do something stupid at any moment which is also not typical. A baserunning mistake, etc. Last weekend there was a fly ball the CF clearly called for and the LF clearly heard it because he slowed up and sort of began to peel away. But, he was so cavalier about it he still bumped into the CF who luckily still made the catch. But, it was a WTH moment for sure.

And they don't have the pitching depth that they typically have.

Talent is there and there's a lot of season left before figuring out whether it's going to be like this all year or they'll flip a switch.

I should have gone to Vegas

Tidwell struggling to get ahead in the count

It’s hard to criticize this team, but sometimes I think we may be just a tad too patient at the plate.
Maybe patient is a bad way to describe it, dismissive maybe?
GBO!!

Let's roll 2 here
