Cease looked good and kept the pitch count down. Nice!

Goodwin is so lucky on that. Coulda torn his knee badly

Great baserunning by Magic there

I'm going out on a limb today and saying Robert has a good day

I'd say 96-97. That 101 is so easy

Yeah if Sox win today and Cubs beat the Twins it's a division title for sure and rest please

Sox have the best BA in the AL. Everyone sucks this year.

Robert has really hit a wall. I would give him 3-4 games off.

dude. are you kidding me? LOVE

this team is Amazing.

Tim being friends with bauer...that HR just inked Bauer for next year.

He just proved he can hit an elite pitcher. Welcome to your playoff RF starter...

For sure. Had a nice bottle of red wine with dinner, Pulling out the rye whiskey next!

It's all good. you guys drinking yet? these threads are so on edge. Man, we are in the playoffs!

Bauer is so good. God damn.

All Magic does is hit.

I know. Chris got what, 8 years before his fell off?

Went back and rewatched the inning. His spin on the ball is excellent...the movement is passable, but not elite. But the with the 101, movement doesn't matter. His catchers are going to need to try hard to not make his sequences the same. His 2nd pitch of the inning was an 85 mph changeup...Not sure how often he will throw that, but it could be devastating if he mixes that in occasionally. I am glad they brought him up. He has a 4-5 year window before that arm falls off. Interesting to see what the 2021 plans are if he dominates the playoffs.

Magic at leadoff is fun. but not gonna happen much the next 3-4 years with TA7.

it's important because no one wants the yankees in a 3 game series with Cole and the way they are playing lately. let the twins get raw dogged by them as the 4th seed.

I do for 2022. But depending how this postseason goes (I think they will be a starter short), Bauer is TOP priority for the team. I would rather have Bauer and Engel over unproven young starter and FA RF. the hitting is stacked already and will be better next year with Moncada back, Robert better and Vaughn.

the team payroll is way too low to justify not going for 1 year deals on Bauer. with him they literally are the best team in MLB in 2021, no question. That is the beauty with him. I think this new wave though has definitely pushed the Stroman's and #3 or 4 types out completely, agreed there.

oh he isn't in my 2021 rotation for long. Giolito Bauer DK Dunning Cease until Kopech is ready. Now Crochet could push this even more. And 2022 looks WAY different. Giolito Bauer (if he chooses to stay) Kopech DK Dunning/Crochet I see no place for Cease on this team other than a major injury. He is trade FUEL.

Also...what if this dude comes in and kills it...Kopech odd man out of rotation long term...?

LOVE this. Makes me wonder though...Why didn't they call up Vaughn 3 weeks ago then also? if you are gonna go for it....GO FOR IT!
