I don't know if you can go back to Munoz in the 9th, and there's nothing reliable left in Seattle's pen. I wonder if Gilbert is available for an inning or two.

Why is Kerry Carpenter Barry Bonds?

Skubal is better than Kirby

lol, Skubal out

I can't believe people are talking about walking Carpenter with nobody out in the 6th inning of a 1-run game

Looks like Skubal is done. Tigers deserve to lose if so

99 pitches for Skubal. I'm leaving him out there for the 7th if I'm Hinch

AJP being the voice of reason on the panel is certainly unexpected

M's fans on reddit are melting down about the hook, but - Carpenter crushes rights, and has owned Kirby - Carpenter can't hit lefties (usually) - Speier is really, really good I think you can't really criticize Wilson

lol, What a terrible move pulling Kirby. Textbook overmanaging.

6 - Speier 7/8/9 covered by Brash and Munoz But I'd let Kirby go if he keeps getting outs. Just don't want Carpenter up as the go-ahead run

I'd pull him for Carpenter, but only if the #9 hitter gets on

George Kirby is f***ing dealing

Seriously. He's dominating, but 71 pitches through 4

Skubal up to 54 pitches through 3. Mariners are going to get to the bullpen by the 6th inning, probably

Just repeating what the broadcast said

Josh Naylor is a beauty. 2nd slowest sprint speed in baseball and just stole 3rd and scored on a sac fly.

Did something happen to Safeco?

Kirby is going to outduel Skubal tonight. Please

Wow, hell of a job by Dominguez

3 innings and Varland, Fluharty, and Dominguez are down. This is going ton be tough.

I f***ing hate the Tigers

Somebody link this man to a Bautista bat flip video ASAP

A lot of talk in here about grades, but if you're looking to maximize the likelihood of a card holding/building value, you should be looking at cards that are numbered so low that they don't need to be graded. You don't want a card that there are 500K of and that needs a PSA-10 to go from $15 to $200. You want a low numbered card (/1, /10, /70 etc...) that people are a lot less likely to grade. Look at topps dynasty auto rookie cards of great players - they're all number to /10 or below and nobody grades them. Topps heritage red ink rookie autos number to less than 75 etc... You're better off with an Ohtani or Whitt or Judge red ink rc auto or dynasty auto than junk that's only valuable because of the PSA-10 grade. Also, look at population reports on PSA's site. There are like 25,000 base topps Soto rookies with a PSA-10. That's why the card went from like $400 to $70 orr whatever it is now. But more importantly - Laika is right. Look at it as a hobby that you might possibly make a buck on if you're disciplined. Don't invest in pitchers. They don't hold value unless its Maddux or Pedro or something. Don't sink thousands of dollars unto Eury Perez, Connor. Just buy a high end Ohtani or like Sandy Koufax or something.

This org is very risk-averse. It's very hard for me to see him use Yesavage on 2 days rest. I think both him and Gausman will be in play on Friday if required.
