Tony LaRussa did this one fully correctly. Give Kopech the shot against Trout. If he gets him, he gets Rendon. If he doesn’t, backup comes in because they’re already ready. Now if Marshall gets in more trouble, Hendricks should be ready quick.

It’s a bit early in the season for a 6 out save.

I’m ok with Marshall now, but also want to see how Kopech handles walking the best player in baseball.

Never reply to me again. Ever. You are an awful human being.

Maybe not everyone deals with it in the same way and maybe a company might want to think about that before they run a big shiny ad behind home plate? But please tell me how your reaction is appropriate and mine makes me “insane”.

He should only come in if the lead off hitter gets on.

Seriously are you trying to make me want to fight you?

Total honesty, I haven’t gone to bed either of the last 2 nights cause I want to see Hendricks. The dog will wake me up 6 hours after this game ends. On a Saturday. Make it worth it Liam.

IMO - yes. Crochet can pitch tomorrow. Foster has pitched 2 days in a row, Kopech won’t be available, the starter isn’t likely to go 7. Everyone will have pitched other than Ruiz if Kopech gets through the 8th. Kopech hands this off to Hendricks. If Kopech gets in trouble in the 8th, Hendricks does a 4-5 out save.

I’m watching a baseball game, I don’t need to be reminded about how much my wrist hurts when I pumped it after that slider.

No. Kopech goes until we lose the lead or the inning flips to 9.

Please lecture me more about how I should feel about my medical problems. I’m sure you’re the expert. Totally appropriate.

Guys who have been bad defensively for years are likely to stay that way. Robert is a plus defender. Moncada is pretty good. Everyone else?

A poorly set Up ad about how people need to talk to someone about their pain. I can’t tell whether it pissed me off more because of my condition or because of the opioid addiction epidemic.

Apparently get used to them? Defense will make a lot of these closer than they should be.

Damn. Wrong place to hit that ball.

Go get him AV.

Seriously F*** you to whoever wrote the ad behind home plate right now.

That was the unintentional intentional walk. Not a bad time for it with the kid. Just needed to not throw the ball into the dugout.

He knew it wouldn’t be anywhere close. That’s a big advantage.

Rodriguez wanted no part of Abreu.

Tim is always aggressive, this looks like the exact same approach he has had every time I’ve seen him, but the last 2 years he has hit the same balls way harder than this. Hopefully there’s a quick fix.

I’m ok with him stealing 3rd in this situation.

Tim is making some pretty weak contact right now.

If Kopech doesn’t hand this off to Hendricks then we have lost the game.
