Hey, the runner will probably be going, since it is too easy to do so, against Sox pitchers.

Why is Bummer still in

The Met's thought they made a splash with Baez (whom many here wanted) and he sucks. So you never know. 

I left him out, manly cause I dislike him.

the guy we just traded 30 million surplus projected $/WAR can't come in, good lord what a horrific trade.

They’re saving him for tomorrow it sounds like. Has nothing to do with his ability.  I do absolutely hate risking this game for an appearance that might not happen tomorrow.

Bummer getting hit hard on his sinker.

Frazier, Bryant, and Escobar all would have been better upgrades to play second. I’m saying if they were going “all in” with the Kimbrel trade then go all in with the second base addition. Hernandez doesn’t move the needle as much as those guys IMO. I know Frazier hasn’t been that great since the trade. 

They lost out on Frazier awhile ago.  I don't think they could do both.  Would rather have Hernandez and Kimbrel than no Kimbrel and Frazier.

Who knew, Bummer in a 2nd inning vs all righties, was a bad thing?

 

Oh....almost everyone.

what a fucking joke, Hahn should be ashamed.  It's like he built a great portfolio and then decided to go all in on some shit ass play that is already stale.

Andrew Benintendi just gained the white Sox a game on the Astros

 

This wasn’t particularly well thought out

copium.

we all saw that coming a mile away... dumb

Bummer on lock down. 

these balls hit off Bummer are line shots, ugh

It's the 8th inning

Tony playing for the imaginary save tomorrow instead of trying to win today.

Agreed, lock the W tonight and tomorrow is all gravy 

Hendriks in. Considering every major arm got the day off yesterday, I'm not sure why we're trying to save Kimbrel. Win today and tomorrow is whatever.

nope.

Saving Kimbrel to go tomorrow?  How about winning the friggin game that's in front of you?

So Kimbrel gets so 9th?

Liam in, with a 1 run lead...

 

Here is our expensive bullpen in trouble once again. ?

lets hope this putting shit in the blender and hoping it comes out a smoothy works again for old man HOF

 

there was no reason to send bummer back out there.

I imagine Liam will go 5 outs.
