Time to get the scheduled loss out of the way early this week. Manoah is first up.

giving up 1 run
11 hits/walks,
8 strikeouts.

i think he'll go 4.1, giving up a HR, 4 BBs and a HBP. this is where were at now.

Bautista outplays his contract by more than $70 million over the next four seasons (2013-2016).

maybe he talked to verlander in ny and he was given advice about it. this is the only hope.its strange that a guy can completely lose it like this. can anyone think of a pitcher who was this good in his first two seasons that collapsed like this. i know prior and strasburg were injury related but this doesnt seem to be.

So how long does Schneider keep running Manoah out there before he gets fired? Its ridiculous trotting out a guaranteed loss every 5 days. That cant possible be good for team morale.

I would hope this would be the last time he starts for this team until he looks like a major league quality pitcher again. They're just wasting games.

Not this good, but Ricky Romero.

Why would he get fired for upper managements decision.

You can't believe that Manoah looks like how he's looked all season?

A couple of pitchers in prior ab's could have went either way.
