    It is absolutely ridiculous the pressure they are putting on this kid. One player is not going to save this team.
    I lost a bet...

    surely this is only coming from the outside. How does this guy come across in interviews? Any humility? If he has a sense of humility , he should eb able to keep things in perspective.

    If he hits anything like Castro and makes 1/2 the errors Castro makes, we have a nucleus.

    He started the nonsense last night with his own error.
    Then it just got ugly...

    He gave up 5 runs in the 1st.
    All unearned.
    He actually lowered his ERA. last night.

    Ozzie must be losing his mind in Miami these days.

    You read my mind.
    I was hoping you were going to go there.

    He gives up 2 singles, commits an error, and then gives up a 3 run Dinger.
    And those runs are unearned?

    Not buying it.

    from a technical perspecitve. not sure a 4th inning hit counts as a cluch game winning hit. you would think that has to happen in the 7th or later inning. maybe even 8 or 9 is needed to qualify

    Did realize it was that early. Just saw he put them ahead for good. 2-4 is a good first game though.
