Got home and turned the tv on with the first pitch being Gattis RBI single. I'll take the blame for the first 5 innings.

I'm a little behind, but LOL at Geoff getting Eschenfelder with the "YOU LOOK AT HIM!" at the very beginning of the game.

The collective groan from the oakland crowd when Correa scored combined with the complete silence from the drums was heavenly.

They should not be allowed to drum like that. Sounds like some junior high bull**** in there.

3.69 now. He really is in the pitcher of the month conversation if he can keep this up.

Mike MF Fiers, yall. If you need me I'll be over here eating my crow.

What's absolutely wild is looking at our strikeout rate. We went from 8.58 in 2015 to 8.96 in 2016 and then now we're at an MLB best 6.85 this year. As we were discussing Beltran earlier, I'd think him and McCann are a huge part of that turnaround. Not to say the coaches haven't done some work, but the amount of improvement over one year is pretty crazy. Putting the ball in play has allowed for some special innings.

This is how Fiers has always been though. He goes trough times where he is a great pitcher, but goes through times when he looks like he shouldn't be in the majors. His problem as always been a 2-3 really bad pitches a game that end up in the seats.

Of all things I thought would happen this year, I don't think I'd believe anyone that told me Fiers would have improved. I thought he was done. It must have really gotten his ass in gear when he was removed from the rotation for a day, and then the injuries happened.

Yeah... the crawfishboxes folks found this guy a long time ago. Really hope Evan has a restraining order on that cat.

The last month Fiers has an ERA of 2.25, xFIP of 4.16 and has cut his HR/9 to 0.5. He's consistently gone 6 plus innings a start, with the last 2 at 7 or more. He had a bad first month that was exaggerated by all the HRs he gave up. Since he got demoted and immediately reinserted as a starter he's been a different pitcher.

Supposedly Fiers chatted with LMJ about his curve and it changed things. His timing was impeccable because he's been a steady eddy during this tumultuous time for the rotation.
