I hate to take him out against the Twins but now is the time to IL him. they can eat against the Pirates and Royals while he's out. 

Do we even need to IL him? Just straight up sit him vs the Pirates and Royals. That's 7 days off. Madrigal should be back Tuesday so Mendick can move over to 3B.

i assume that scared everyone else as well

That was scary... won't lie.

I thought that was a goner.

I don't trust Marshall either but I stopped calling the manager an idiot for using him months ago because clearly I'm wrong.

You’re assuming a 10 day IL stint will cure his problems, I think we have assume they will be a problem the rest of the way no matter what.

It's possible, but I'd like to give him 10 days to find out. It could be covid related fatigue which isn't going away this season if that's the case. If he's just got nagging muscle injuries then 10 days should be enough to help.

Good call. I'd sit Moncada tomorrow and vs the Pirates and Royals.

Whew. Ricky really rolled the dice

He is lucky Bote just got under that or there would be ALOT of chatter regarding that call.

Even Gio himself thought Bote hit that out.

German i agree with you on both points.  Marshall is a good story.  That said he shouldn't be a set up man in my opinion. 

GIO thought that was gone lol

We got so lucky there, holy shit Renteria get the fuck out of here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What are you even talking about. Guy didn't give up a hard hit ball for 3 innings. You guys just love pretending like nothing ricky does is smart.

I may like the idea of ReyLo and Gio G each going the same day. Get 3/4 innings from them and hope they can get you the 8th with the lead. 

Bump.

A dozen insurance runs would be nice

It was a bad call no matter what. Bullpen is rested for the most part and Monday off

Grandal leadoff walk!

Dreaded leadoff walk for Grandal!

Nice AB.

 

Abreu is red hot, let’s hope he continues 

HE JUST MISSED IT

Jose just missed his second of the night

Fouled it straight back, damn it

The ball was a hair away of being launched into the stands.  Let's not act like we are watching a chess master 7 moves ahead.  He got lucky 

Jose was sitting curveball there
