Official Game Lineup - 4/18 - Bucs vs Guards

Post by Possum »

Gards

1 LF Steven Kwan L
2 CF Lane Thomas R
3 3B Jose Ramirez S
4 DH K. Manzardo L
5 1B C. Santana S
6 RF Nolan Jones L
7 SS G. Arias R
8 C Bo Naylor L
9 2B A. Martinez S
SP Luis Ortiz R

Bucs

1 CF Oneil Cruz L
2 RF B. Reynolds S
3 DH A. McCutchen R
4 1B E. Valdez L
5 C Joey Bart R
6 LF J. Suwinski L
7 3B Jared Triolo R
8 2B Adam Frazier L
9 SS I. Kiner-Falefa R
SP C. Mlodzinski R

Hey Shelty, why not let Hayes play tonight and start Triolo at 2B instead of Frazier? Hey GMBC, trade Valdez straight up of a guy at 1B for the Guards. His name is Santana! :D :D :D :D
Let's Go Bucs

I'm sure Ortiz would love beating his former team. I noticed his ERA is almost double from his last season with us. Hope the "slumber company" comes alive against him.

Here's Ortiz' game log. The bad ERA is the result of a terrible first game. But his next 2 games got a lot better.

How much longer do the Pirates go with Suwinski. He’s off to another rough start. Sending him down isn’t the answer. Maybe he needs to go to another organization where he might get some help, because he’s not getting what he needs here. Either that or he just isn’t a major leaguer.

I don’t believe Suwinski is MLB quality. This is his fourth season. His career BA is .205. His career best BA is .224. That came with 26 HRs but also 172 Ks. His overall minor league BA was only .239. He’s just not a hitter. He’s got strength when he makes good contact, but that very rarely happens. I don’t believe he’ll finish the season in the Pirate organization and I don’t believe he has much time left in MLB.

It’s looking more and more that Mlodzinski is better suited for a bullpen role.

I think the announcers have been on camera more than the players tonight.

Agreed- he has shown nothing to have earned a starting role. If Jones was
healthy, he wouldn't be starting

Bucs have five hits and nine strikeouts through six tonight with Suwinski having three of them . It’s getting tough to watch him.
