Canes bs Noles - Game 2 - 7pm, ACCN

[scane]

The problem with playing both catchers in the lineup is you can't pinch hit for a .172 Perez.

You could have and put Jones in if you reached Bot 9. I’m not sure anyone is healthy but Mike Rosario, but that probably would have been an upgrade.

 

[Rellyrell]

Pick up the W tomorrow, take the series. Sloppy, sloppy game. Smh

 

[NC_Canes_11]

Choked another one away against those clowns.

Perez has been pathetic at the plate all year. Expected a lot more from him going into the season. This one hurts. Tons of chances to win this game. Sloppy early and no clutch hitting late

 

[IndayArtHauz]

Whatever. We’ll take the series tomorrow.

 

[ewcanes]

Like I posted earlier, feels like if we could just average at least 5-6 runs per game in this series, we win it and probably sweep.

Just didn't know we were gonna drool all over ourselves tonight.

 

[scane]

Noon on ESPN2 for the finale. Should have 4-5 available from Walters and McFarlane plus an inning or so from Gallo. Have the quick hook ready if needed.

 

[canester95]

Dang it. Hate these clowns.

I really question Gino's lineup tonight with both Gutierrez and Perez hitting a combination under 200.

They weren't the reason we lost, but they didn't do anything to help us win. Just a terrible game offensively and defensively as a whole by the team The team didn't execute the basic fundamentals in a night where the bullpen kept us in the game.

Let's see which Miami team shows up tomorrow.

 

[scane]

Please Gino make this so:
Kayfus
Dorian
Yoyo
Romero
Burke
Levenson
Pitelli
Garcia
Long

I’m indifferent to swapping Dorian and Pitelli

You could have and put Jones in if you reached Bot 9. I’m not sure anyone is healthy but Mike Rosario, but that probably would have been an upgrade.

I just don't understand the thought process. It's like he needs to have it blow up in his face in order to make a change.

Meanwhile, there are lost opportunities when we're basically giving away outs. More balls put into play may be the difference in winning and losing. It was tonight with YoYo and Romero striking out with 2nd & 3rd and no outs.

Opportunities could develop at the bottom of the order with just one hitter replaced.

I’d be happy if I never have to watch Perez hit again. All he does is hit fly balls and K except when that is what he needs to do. Dude couldn’t have rolled a better double play. Please don’t play him again this year.

 

[Pitcher in the Rye]

Please Gino make this so:
Kayfus
Dorian
Yoyo
Romero
Burke
Levenson
Pitelli
Garcia
Long

I’m indifferent to swapping Dorian and Pitelli

Burke in the 4 hole. Romero k’s too much.

 

[ewcanes]

Man, tomorrow is huge for the ACC race…

Win and we’re looking at a potential series win (2-1) at home vs ND to finish 1st in the ACC no matter what anyone else does.

That’s assuming we get no extra help from Louisville or Pitt tomorrow.

 

[Miami04]

Tomorrow is HUGE. We’ve got to take the series.

 

[shoeless]

If Gino plays Gutierrez again today I’m going to say some more not nice things

 

[LXAcanes]

FSU will pitch Montgomery today who is a righty so Gino will probably put as many left handed batters in the lineup as possible. I could see Mike Rosario starting in one of those outfield spots.
