Eye of the Tiger: Delgado Tigers News
17-10 in August, 87-41 overall AL East leader.
We started out really slow in August and had a nice 7 game winning streak and ended fairly strong. September's schedule is tough. We finish up vs BC, then 2 @ COR, 4 @ ATS and 3 @ GC., then 4 vs PON before an off day. That 13 game stretch will be tough on my pitching staff and I am unsure when anyone from Middleton will join us.then we see MET for 3, @ MAD for 3 then we host WB for 3 and end the month with another 4 games vs ATS. So we have 2 13 game stretches without an off day.
RP Ricardo Ortiz was innured during his rehab at AAA. When he is healthy, he will come to us but will be on a strict 15 pitch count. We may not get Walter Johnson back until we start the ALDS. i hope to get him back during our final 6 games in October though.Medina could be back as early as the last week of September but he too will be on a strict pitch count, probably 25 pitches.
Overall i am happy with my pitching staff right now. Christy is back to lead the staff and Lurte, Stupec & Ramos have all stepped up. The back end of my pen has been great in Its current setup.
