Is Cooper EVER going to “fix” anyone ever again? I know greg thought Soria was, but he’s a closer who throws 92 mph. It was only a matter of time.

When the rest of the coaching staff goes, he better go also.  

Closers occasionally blow games. Soria has been way better than most expected.

Stoney apoplectic about the outfielders not being told to move in.

Soria was K’ing close to 11/9 and only walking 2/9 coming into tonight, so I’m not sure why velocity really matters.

So how is this game ending guys?

Altuve against Soria with the bases loaded and no outs. What could go wrong?

Impressive control by the pitchers tonight. Too scared of the bat with a full count all night.

Infield dribbler and bad throw home

That's what I'm thinking too. Knowing Altuve, I wouldn't be shocked of a hit either.

EDIT: Altuve got himself out. WOW.

Soria K’s three guys, Davidson hits a HR in the top of the 10, and then Volstad blows the save to end the game.

Now that's a shocker!

Soria's first ER in a month and a half, so of course he is a failure. 

Now Gurriel is gonna get tons of ASG votes and win that

Well I was right about a hit, just the wrong player.

Why the hell was infield in? Gurriel hits into double plays. Oh well, be ok Timmy

These losses just have to be decimating to these guys.

You really think MLB is going to let him win?

Would Moncada have had a play on that in his regular spot? I can't rewind

Good point. I didn't even remember that incident. Either way, he's gonna get votes like crazy in the next half hour.

Meh, I'm not surprised. It's been that kind of season.

Close...Madrigal wouldn't have

Wow BA looks... like an adult now. Gained some weight, no more goldy locks, etc.

You ever hear his red line radio appearance last year?  It's amazing

Random question- since UZR doesn't factor in positioning or shifts, does that walk-off single hurt Moncada's defensive stats?
