I’ll support any manager not condoning jogging down the line anytime. It doesn’t have to be running for your life, but run hard.

So 56-72 starting Friday. That seems very optimistic no matter what they do. 54 games left with Indians, Yankees, Red Sox, Angels, Astros, Cubs, Brewers, and Cardinals. That’s 1/3 of a regular season. 14-40 at best?

He could have, and should have. Unfortunately, managing is CYA (cover your ass). They give pitchers with more experience the final three outs.

With 10 days left in the season. Ha.

When the Sox get the 2nd pick instead of 3rd, we can look back at this one and smile. I’m grasping.

Pirates happy flight for sure. Oh well.

Meanwhile, Gomez has an ERA under 1, and he seems to be able to go more than an inning.

This team is something, and it ain’t good.

Don’t blow this, Nate.

Omar comped Adolfo to Manny Ramirez, hopefully without the juice.

They have the right to play him a full season in the minors at age 21, and then hold off a few weeks next year. It’s been done many times.

Eloy isn’t skipping AAA.

His lower half is huge.

On his last double, he was out trying to get a triple because millenials are obsessed with cycles these days.

How do they keep Eloy down until next April/May to get the extra year? If they can’t, wait until Super 2 is past, and bring him up. He’s a born hitter.

Eloy walk, Zavala dinger

In exchange for bringing him up for Friday’s game, lock Eloy up for 10 years now on a team friendly deal. (Just kidding?)

Collins double too.

When I hear a guy hurts himself jumping off a back of truck or carrying luggage up the stairs, I just ignore it. It may or may not be true, and it doesn’t really matter unless you’re paying the guy.

First place team under .500.

Paxton will take no hitter to the 9th in Toronto.

Dylan Bundy faced 7 Royals. 2 walks, 5 hits- 4 homers.

If Adolfo has Tommy John in September, when is he ready to play again as an outfielder?
