Weren't the Sox looking at Fetter back in 2021 as well to replace Coop? I remember Hahn was interested. I'd imagine had Hinch gotten the job here, we would have hired Fetter too.

I feel like Hinch has always had the Astros' number since leaving. Good for the Tigers. They actually got here because they were innovative with their injured pitching staff. I'm not sure how good they'll be in a longer series, but a short series like this one really suited them.

2021 was so long ago that the AL triple crown award winner (Tarik Skubal) was actually not very good back then.

Braves are really flirting with losing this game. They only scored 1 off a guy with a 8.5 ERA.

Sucks for Atlanta.

This is a crazy game. Braves took the lead back and then Lindor homers in the 9th to put the Mets up.

Braves blew a 3 run lead in the 8th. Now they have to start Sale game 2.

If they don't make it, their collapse, while not as bad as the Twins, will look actually worse from a playoff odds perspective. They had a 92% chance to make it a week ago.

If the double header is split tomorrow, Arizona is out. If either team sweeps the DH, Arizona is in.

I don't think that ever hit the wall on the bobble. Although I think the look on his face said it did lol.

I think the tide of the whole season changed on the first drive of the 2nd half. Having just a functional run game makes Caleb's life way easier. Waldron finally figured out how to use Swift. Johnson got pretty much all the short down yardage runs and I think he converted just about every time. Caleb and the WR corps definitely left a few points out there, especially at the end of the half, but this was a very clean game from him sans a few of those misses in the end zone.

What a choke job from the Twins. Weren't they up by like 5 games 2 weeks ago?

If this team had an even average bullpen they'd be about 10 games better. They blew so many games in the middle of the year that were winnable. There was a period of time where nobody in the bullpen could hold a lead.

His numbers suck but every time I watch him hit he looks like he belongs in the Majors.

It's too bad they don't get to play the White Sox to rescue their season.
