"8/28 @ Twins: Davis Martin's return could be just what this team needs." You didn't see this in the post ??? But sure, Davis Martin is highly likely to return to his Top Ten mlb form of the first 2-3 months instead. Because...well, why not??? Castillo hadn't pitched well against the Reds, so Davis logically will throw a shutout, too, against a team he has historically struggled against.

Carrigg is the main reason Doyle is expendable...along with him hitting his arbitration years. McCarthy is well over an 800 ops (another Sox miss) and Moniak has been another pleasant surprise to go along with Goodman. Ofc the Mariners were also in a pickle with Castillo too expensive and also bumped out of their rotation with Anderson/Sloan coming on strong. Should have gotten him for 25% off his salary, period...forget about Dominguez, who they could actually use again with the bullpen leaking like a sieve.

Otoh Steele and/or Horton are going to be back at some point next season. But yeah, Suzuki Happ Imanaga (complicated contract, and time to go back into FA but no great pitchers after Skubal either)...

Davis Martin has a 3-4 record with an ERA of 6.08 and 28 strikeouts in 8 appearances against the Twins in his career.

Much easier said than done...but why they keep challenging him instead of treating him like CLE Josh Naylor or prime Jose Ramirez is beyond me.

Not Sandlin? McDougal?

Don't tell that to any Sox fan who understandably got nervous at the end of 2005...after having what seemed an almost insurmountable double digit game lead. Of course, completely different talent levels with those Indians/Sox WS teams.

PCA alone outproducing Antonacci Peters Grichuk Braden in fWAR, probably bWAR too.

On paper and at home...Cubs are the much better team. But that doesn't matter if the manager...hitting with risp, bullpen, and bullpen overusage are slowly killing your team morale

Well, there was that one time we ALMOST added Alphonso Soriano, would fit in with all the team strikeouts Might as well start building the PCA MVP Statue...

what the hell is wrong with Brazoban now? got spooked trying to close in Boston and has seemingly fallen apart now

If they even make the playoffs...will be limping down the home stretch worse than 2000 and 2008 without Quentin

This result seemed inevitable after the rain delay. All they were missing was the inspirational speech from a former Braves' underachieving outfielder.

Scouted Brazil, Colombia and Venezuela…

That’s the equivalent of travel ball stories if your kid would rather play PUBG lol.

There’s always Sophie Cunningham… Or you can watch Tip Toe and be properly traumatized.

Grittier than Paul Lusk I was of the Brian Schwabe/Todd Leslie era

Unless you time travelled back to 80s or early 90s…

Derek Hill’s fault?

Fedde going to end up like Jimmy Cordero...way too many pitches

Vargas is all out of sorts...the key error/s yesterday didn't help his psyche but he's old enough now to learn he has to put it behind him.

Mason Adams / S.Smith / Sandlin

Counting Peterson, they have six starters now.
