I wish people would stop with the sell BS. They are NOT going to be sellers..the problem is, it looks like they aren't going to be buyers either...the crickets are chirping in Stearns's office.

 

If the next three weeks look anything like the last 3 they may very well be sellers.

With two of our top 3 hitters being free agents after the season, selling makes a helluva lot more sense than buying right now.

Not doing anything is worse than either buying or selling.

Not upset with pulling Hader. Upset with putting in their worst pitcher in such a apot.

 

This. Burnes was an option. Peralta was an option. If a 5 run lead was this much of a concern, it wasn't mandatory for Counsell to go with the AAA guy who hasn't pitched in the bigs in years.

 

And he left him in to give up 4 earned runs..

Counsell hasn't been good this year in my opinion but the guy hasn't had any cards to play with. Stearns has left him hanging in my opinion.

Who is left at AAA worthy of a call-up? Jay Jackson? Sanchez? Perdomo? Gotta keep trying until you find one that isn’t a gas can.

 

Smith as well. Then there's three guys on the 40-man who should probably just be DFA'd off. I still think part of the Guerra move was expecting to DFA him out of the organization soon and get to moving up arms from the loaded Biloxi bullpen. That's already bit them.

Not necessarily. Depends on what is available. It's too early for much trade action, except for Dipoto who has a trade addiction.

When they don't make the playoffs this is the game everyone will talk about.

 

Not sure how this win will keep them out of the playoffs.

I was giggling about the Mets’ pen allowing 5 runs in the ninth, guess the baseball gods weren’t having anything of that.

Now who do you put in to "protect" this lead?

 

 

Burnes.

 

Scary but yeah, probably. Wonder if they consider leaving Junior in?

 

 

Please no. Let's live or die with Burnes.

Yelich has looked pretty human lately. Of course he's still going to go into the break with like a 1.100 OPS, so...not terrible.
