    Shoulder could be any number of things. But none good. I’d imagine he’s out for a while and probably the entire season with the way this team’s luck has been.

    Clear missed call by the ump. Terrible call. Gyroko comes back with the solo HR, nicely done. C’mon guys.

    Now West wants to call that on Munoz and Shiltz screaming at him

    Ponce got squeezed on a pitch that would’ve ended the inning. Umps just can’t adjust their sights to a pitch that’s off target, yet still in the zone. Automated ball/strike calls can’t get here soon enough. Mo can now go to sleep for the evening.

    Shildt may get tossed tonight if things keep going how they have so far.

    Martinez injury right shoulder strain.

    Often, when coming back from injury, you tend to make adjustments that cause you to injure other parts of your body. My guess is, in trying to not re-injure his oblique, he put excess stress on the shoulder.

    Yeah it didn’t appear to be the oblique. I thought it may have been his back but it makes sense with his arm and the diminished velocity.

    I think at this point if I think how this series is going to end up and with a likely impending trade or two in the works. I’d just see how long he’s out and if it’s too long I’d reset for 2019. Shame because he looked decent in the first 4 innings of work.

    Parra has been the difference in this game tonight. I remember his showboat homer last year against Lance Lynn. Still don’t like him and tonight he’s responsible for taking at least one run away and maybe two, and scored Colorado’s first run.

    Yeah it wasn’t like he painted the corner either. The ball was all white over the plate. That call has to be made even if it didn’t hit where it was intended.

    Repeat of the earlier Martinez error puts Parra on 3rd. Also with two strikes.

    Worst fielding team in the NL. Worst fielding staff for the last 3 years.

    Team needs some fresh set of eyes throughout the organization.

    Looked like he just knicked him with the glove. Still, it shouldn’t really have been that close a play.

    I may be the only one here to feel this way but the umpire clearly missed the call but must you give up a grandslam? How about getting the next guy out or hold him to a single?

    All these games in a row and it looks like Ponce is gonna be forced to eat some innings.

    So Ponce baited Parra with that wild pitch, a wiley vet move if you’ve ever seen one. Home field advantage, I bet Ponce knows the exact point 15 feet up on the back screen where the ball will ricochet directly back to Yadi in time to nail the runner.

    The pitch was a meatball no doubt.

    You are right NJ315, gotta take care of business. But still it would be nice to have to get only 3 outs in an inning. I guess we shouldn’t whine too much about the umps, because it’s usually our guys who are forcing our pitchers to have to get the extra outs. They’re all human, some more than others.

    This is the time you bring in JMart

    Well, this game got a bit more interesting. Need to get at least two runs here.

    Bases loaded, nobody out, and we let Fowler hit for himself.

    Predictable outcome.

    There’s the book on Fowler…throw him a high fastball and he’s a goner. I would have agreed with you, C2016. If Harrison can not hit into a double play, Jmart will hit.

    JMart should have been hitting for Fowler

    Arenado is just excellent defensively. He would look great as a Cardinal. Hint.
