Don't mind me, ive only been calling for Gimenez at SS since we made the trade :)

It was always going to be next year save for injury, and here we are, Bo's bat is sorely missed.

Vlad has had rough night weak ground balls for days

Bo could do that from 2B or DH lol

Alex Gonzalez was a great ss defensively, but he could not hit, and he was not a great player as a result. Offense is more important. 

[Grant77]

Twins up 3-0 and still threatening against Weaver.

Going to need the Twins to hold for a win.

There are positions on the field where your offensive production should come from.  Defense at C/SS/CF matters a lot and if you can get offensive production from there too then it's a sweetener.

Hoffman hasn’t pitched in a while, he even admits he’s not good when that happens

We've got plenty of breathing room. A win tonight and a Yankees lose pretty much seals up the division in my opinion.

[Jays24]

This is the least fun part of the game seeing Hoffman pitch...

[Grant77]

Caminero HR incoming

Hes also not good when he pitches too much, should probably admit hes not meant to be a closer lol. 

[Spanky__99]

Pitching has been pure filth all game from both sides, keep it going Hoff.

[Horses Fart]

I’m scured 

[Grant77]

Buxton walks to load the bases with 1 out, Austin Martin coming up with a 3-0 lead.

Good point hahahah

Why does everyone seem to use their closer now in a tie game on the road in the ninth?  It seems senseless to me.  Who is going to close the game if you take the lead now?  It was always the rule NOT to use your closer in this situation.  I don't get it.

[gruber9292]

Infield defence just feels different. 

[Jays24]

Hoffman viewing experience lol

In our case might be better considering how crap Hoffman has been 

[Jesusindashed]

Pitching has been fantastic need to take advantage

If you recall our playoff game against the Orioles, you may find your answer.
