Stanton has not been bad


He’s been awesome. But wh even pitch to him, 1st was open.

Aside from that, you cannot pull starters this early every fucking game. Completely unsustainable. Gavin was fine, he had great stuff tonight. Boys was even worse setting down 11 in a row and getting pulled. He used Smith for Boyd for no reason, and today Smith tops at 94 not 96/97, and shocker Yankees destroy him. Overworked and tired.

The more pitchers you use the more likely one of them is going to not have their good stuff

Anthony Rizzo hasn’t saved anything at 1B….a bunch of potential saving plays and he’s 0-4 by my count the last 2 games

Clase is turning into Jose Mesa 2.0. Regular season stud, postseason dud.

That thought ran through my head, too, during the game last night.

Our relievers have all thrown over 100 pitches in the postseason, in less than a games worth of innings.

Case Smith is at 141 in 9.1 IP. Just absurd usage. Vogt messed up…

I mean….I love when Stanton hits one 117.5 mph in a big moment but FFS quit pitching to him. He’s the slowest guy in baseball. Two out, put his ass on first.

The Tribe pitchers and manager just don’t have any feel for when to pitch around a guy. Soto was never not in control. Judge, the MVP has more holes

Some of the sting of this series outcome is taken out for me as I’m about to go to bed. The last two nights have knocked the stuffing out of me. #oldman

Another 3 hours before I go back and forth with my recordings of NLCS and SNF
