He also has below average bat speed, which for a big guy like him is not ideal.

He's kind of like this year's Timo Perez

Not to mention Vargas has been going through the motions recently and he's probably out best hitter against LHP.

So the ump pointed at Colson when he and Wells collided. If Wells couldn't make that play and nobody else did, is that interference?

A few too many pitches that inning for Burke. Hard to see him making it past the 6th now.

He's had two of the biggest hits of the year, but has been god awful the rest of the time.

Burke's been missing a lot since Schriffen said that even his misses are close to the zone.

We have to be the only team that Jones has success against.

Out of challenges in the 3rd...for real?

How hard is it to tell guys to not challenge early in the game with no runners on?

Terrible challenge. Not even close and in a very low leverage spot.

Colson has a 78 wRC+ since the ASB and a 72 wRC+ in July.

They did on 3-0 and he pounded it into the ground.

It's kind of crazy that Weathers only throws his fastball 25% of the time when he throws it at 96.

It was on Gameday. Ball was fully in the zone.

The one time where a slide would have worked out better.

I guess our starters have just decided to give up in the first inning these past 2 days.

His peripherals aren't great, but he'd easily be the 3rd best starting pitcher on this team right now.

Lauer was pretty good last year, but he's giving up 2 HR/9 this year.

Dodgers get Skubal...we get...Eric Lauer?

That might be the story of the crying kid

It depends on what the new CBA says. But I'd imagine that the most likely outcome is that the can gets kicked down the road for one year.

He also doesn't really play defense anymore. But he would be a very good Grichuk replacement.

There's a very real possibility that had we lost this game, the outlook at the deadline could be very different. Especially if a win like this gets the team going in the right direction again. This team still hasn't lost more than 3 in a row all year, but it'd be kind of hard to justify buying big at the deadline if you get swept by the Yankees without their 3 best hitters.

Ray better bring Logan Webb with him then
