Good idea putting Vogie in front of Yoshi, so we have some speed on the basepaths

That's Michael Perez catching, in case some of you didn't know what happened to Roberto yesterday

Thank goodness Hayes is getting a rest. Those 4 days off during the week must have worn him out. And there are 2 other factors. Shelton usually benches his best players to avoid winning series and Hayes had 3 hits in game 2 yesterday, which is usually rewarded with a seat on the bench. So tired of Shelton's idiotic antics.

Welcome back Michael Perez! 2-run HR puts Bucs ahead 2-0.
Between a recent PG article and Greg Brown's comments, Roberto Perez is expected to miss quite a bit of time. Haven't heard anything specific but the White Sox' Eloy Jimenez had a severe hamstring injury a few weeks ago and is expected to miss 6-8 weeks. This might also start a chain reaction within the system of catchers moving up a level. Henry Davis already seems ready for Altoona, so that could be a convenient result if an Altoona catcher goes to Indy to replace Michael Perez.

It's no wonder we never get hot because of this idiot. Hitter have to get regular at bats to get in a rhythm. Know it's one thing when a guy is 0 for ever like Cole Tucker but guys like Hayes, and especially younger guys.
Why can't we ever have a deceit manager. Hurdle was decent the 1st few years but evolved into robotic managing and only playing the vets no matter how awful they were.
