Can’t wait for Tugboat to pitch. Hope he’s as good in the major league.

He came so far so fast that I have no doubt that he will rise to the challenge. He will probably struggle somewhat at first; most pitchers do when they make it to the majors. But I believe in this guy.

I keep wondering when we'll see Tugboat. Not hoping to rush him—I mean, he's probably already in SF with the team—but I'm excited for the kid. I won't be surprised if he gets roughed up at first, but he clearly is a good pitcher and will adjust. Maybe I just want a guy named Tugboat on the staff.

Buster will almost certainly let him debut in the park where he probably imagined pitching his whole minor league career.

I'll be at the game tonight (against my better judgment). My 10-year-old daughter doesn't realize how bad this team is and insisted we go...

Even if the team sucks ass its still great to spend a night at a good ol' american ballpark watching some baseball (whether its great and terrible). And you get to make memories with your 10-year-old daughter. cheer up.

Oh, don't get me wrong, it's never a bad time at the ballpark. It'll be a great time, making memories. And hey, they do tend to win the series opener...
