fathom

Like the Pirates did today, you use a lefty to hopefully get the dumbass manager to stack the lineup like the lefty will pitch the whole game.

The whole thing has gotten so out of whack ever since the deadline debacle. There’s a reason teams don’t just start using relievers for 2-3 innings a few times a week.

When you have a very rested bullpen.

Yeah the only real unlucky play was the Meidroth liner. These guys slept walked for the first 6 innings.

One of these days, Venable will realize there’s basically two weeks left and manage like it.

Pulling off badly

Will can’t say he’s utilizing analytics when he lets Sam face that guy. Every decision he’s made lately seems to backfire.

Good at bat, but come on Will

I bet we see Quero, Doyle and Acuna or Rogers

Lefties are 9-76 with 31 strikeouts against Montgomery

No chance in hell

He swung for sure

Montgomery murders lefty batters. Unleash the crappy hitting righties on the bench

Too busy with some stupid story about the clubhouse

Not worth the risk with him running

Just a complete lack of urgency by him for a pitcher that clearly is running on empty

Cause it makes it a lot easier to tie it? Grichuk isn’t likely to bat again

Yeah I don’t get it, cost them a run

Good lord

Please no double play

You never want to face a travel team where every player has a Y in the middle of their name

Brayden would have homered

Good swing! Be a hero Peters

How about show the replay instead of a stupid story

He’s just so damn bad in the clutch
