Well they do not deserve a thread after last night's no show performance.
But Luis Gil will be interesting to watch.

So WTF, make a thread.

Yea, me too. I like that he seems to be able to throw high and low, in and out. Good velocity and good off speed stuff.

Yes. Why? Do you think a guy just barely in AAA knows more than a 5 year catcher? Catchers set people up for a pitch. When they see that the batter is looking for a pitch they call something else.
Doesnt have to mean he knows more  
UConn4523 : 8/3/2021 9:52 pm : link
could be an issue of confidence of a certain pitch.

I couldn’t care less. Sanchez doesn’t know these guys and what they are comfortable throwing. Pitchers shake off catchers every day of the week. It’s not even worth mentioning. Aside from that, I just found it interesting that the way these two kids pitched, that of all things is what you brought up multiple times. Almost like you’re looking for something to complain about. I think you’re over analyzing things, but if that’s what you do, have at it.
I don't complain  
RasputinPrime : 8/3/2021 10:00 pm : link
when Gil pitched like he did today and we scored 11 runs.
noone’s complainin’

You watch what you want and I watch what I want and I will comment on what I think are mistakes.
They pitched well, but they gave up 3 hits when they shook off the catcher. I suppose you did not see that.
Gary does not need to know what they are comfortable with. He sees what they are throwing and how well they are throwing each pitch and he certainly knows what the Orioles batters like to hit, which these pitchers will not know.

If Chapman or Cole and guys of their experience shake off the catcher, they have earned it. Two guys barely into AAA should not be shaking off an experienced catcher.

Anyway, you are certainly entitled to your opinion.

Meanwhile it is 13-1 after Judge creeps one over the RF porch wall.
Nice game ending

Good night all, sleep well. Hope they get it done tomorrow. I will take 2 wins out of 3 the rest of the year.

Nice to return the favor with a 13-1 win tonight.

Keep rolling.
Went to see Hudson Valley in person tonight  
Giantfan21 : 8/3/2021 11:47 pm : link
so missed the Yankee game. Glad to see Gil and Ridings pitch well tonight.

Rnady Vazquez pitched amazing for Hudson Valley. Big Sleeper prospect

watch closely and you see Yankee catchers always look to the bench before the pitch
Gary is definitely not calling the pitches.

even if he was calling pitches  
UConn4523 : 8/4/2021 8:20 am : link
it isn't cut and dry. A pitcher, no matter how green, should be able to shake off what they aren't comfortable throwing. There's also synergy between Pitcher and Cather that doesn't happen overnight. I'm sure they will work on it if it is an actual issue (and it may not be).
Luis Gil  
Carson53 : 8/4/2021 12:19 pm : link
has an impressive arm, if that kid can harness his stuff...
well they might just have something there.
They got him from the Twinkies for Jake Cave, hmmm.
Hopefully he gets another start. Deivi Garcia has taken two steps backward this season, disappointing.
Gil has better stuff than Garcia.

The bench generally calls throws to first base by the pitcher. That is why you see the catcher looking into the
dugout.

Was really impressed but this Ridings kid. You can never have enough bullpen depth. I know it was against the Orioles, I hope they give him the opportunity to stick with the big club.
Funny  
Professor Falken : 8/4/2021 1:37 pm : link
Gil and Ridings were two of the three pitchers who combined on a no-hitter recently for Scranton. Watch Ridings close out the game. If you watch the whole video, you can see he clearly had no clue they pitched a no-hitter.
