  1. You know there are...other ways, of watching this game.
  2. Here's hoping they shut down Yandy Diaz for the season with the groin injury. I knew the previous series would be a nightmare, there's no way the Yankees were losing to the White Sox at Yankees stadium, so I was just hoping to survive those three games still in first, now that we did, it sets up a little bit better for us than it does the Yankees. Still got to play the games and get it done on the field.
  3. At no point did I feel we had anything confident beyond Kevin and Shane. Berrios was at the bottom of the list, Scherzer was too much of a home run risk. Bassitt was up and down and his road numbers are terrible. There was never a clear number three for the playoffs. There still isn't. If we end up in the wild card. Assuming Gausman pitches 162, I think games two and three would feature bullpen games with a lot of Lauer and Yesavage in each. If we make the DS and beyond, you get Bassitt back as your 4, but the bullpen game may still be your number 3. The bottom line is I think bullpen game might be our number 3 throughout the playoffs.
  4. Bring in Davis Schneider. You need the offense more than the defense and you still have Straw on the bench to play defense.
  5. Tremendous job by the bullpen. Rodriguez needs to keep it going. We'll squeak one or two out eventually.
  6. We've had a lot of luck go our way this year. The baseball gods are making up for it in one week. I think we're even now. The worm is about to turn.
  7. Earn your keep Santander. Your season starts now.
  8. I had a good feeling about Varland today. I never have a good feeling about Vladdy.
  9. Didn't Schneider and the trainer start coming to the mound while he was pitching yesterday and he sent them back? Or did I imagine that? Yesterday is a bit of a blur for me.
  10. I still like our chances to win the East. We still have the advantage. Tomorrow is the key, gotta win that game. The series against Tampa sets up decently for us. The offense cannot stay dormant forever.
  11. Can't read too much into tonight's game specifically, Crochet is dominant. This team has to show up for the final four games. The final four can be had.
  12. I've been saying that since 2 years before they signed it.
  13. So, if we have to use Bieber, Yesavage and Gausman in the next series, does Berrios go from banishment to game one starter? Because this lines him up for that day. But then again you are exposing him to the Red Sox just days before they might see him again. Or do they feel better with Lauer to make that start. Could you imagine if Berrios or Lauer is our game one playoffs starter? Lol
  14. That's what happens when you prioritize short-term financial gain over long term building.
  15. A lot of the second generation players listen to their fathers, max out the money don't be loyal to organizations. That's how Vladdy bent this organization over an expensive wooden table at Rogers' headquarters.
  16. Give Scherzer credit, he gave us some innings after it looked like it was all going Kansas City in the first inning.
  17. What I mean is, I don't think they're treating this as a must-win game, or at least I wouldn't, they obviously want to win this game, they would like to beat the odds but they have to be prudent. Out of the remaining five games this one is your worst chance to win statistically speaking, so you push more of your pieces into the next four, you hope to beat the odds in this one, but if it starts off poorly, you hold back some of your better chips, you don't go all in to save this game is what I'm saying. You push more of your chips into the next four and you take your chances there. If you manage to win this game anyhow, great, if you don't, you've done the best you can to line up your next four knowing that you still have the advantage over the Yankees.
  18. You have to be realistic about what's in front of you, they don't have a realistic option against Crochet for the game tonight so you try to win the next four, you're thinking emotionally and not rationally. What gives you the best chance to win the division? Throwing everything into this game would not give you the best chance. If they threw everything into this game they would have already brought in their bullpen.
  19. I think the Blue Jays realistically conceded this game and the division as a tie tonight. Scherzer was not beating Crochet in any universe. Sometimes you have to sacrifice The Rook to win the King. It's about the next four games.
  20. You really need to stop discounting the Boston Red Sox as a bad team.
  21. Don't worry, it's not like Crochet is Jesus Christ. We got this bro👊🏻
