We’ve been about as unlucky as any team in the league with injuries this year. It’s an unfortunate reality that when you have four leverage guys on the IL you are going to blow some great starts

Fair enough.

Like dire said below when your best high-leverage guy, Nutsack, is on the IL and your closer goes on the IL w/an irregular heartbeat(which he's had before) it makes for some sphincter tightening late in games sometimes.

Matzek should be back by the ASB I would think. He's doing his rehab assignment now.

We traded Touki far cash to the Angels after DFAing him the other day.

What are the odds that Morton is back next year? He has a team option for 20 million with no buy out and has been locked in for the past month or so.

Glad to see us end that atrocious 10 game home losing streak, a feat we had not seen since 1986.

That 86 team started 6-19. They were supposed to be good coming off a 2nd place 89-72 finish in 85, but started off horrible, much like this year. However, from that 6-19 start the 86 team finished up 80-57 to finish in 2nd place behind the Astros at 86-76.

Too early to tell, I’d imagine. Lot of things to keep an eye on: can Soroka come back and show enough at the end of the year to feel confident he can be back in the full-time rotation next year? Does Ian turn it around this year? Does Wright keep it going? Are these 1-half aberrations or do they last all year? How does Strider handle the 2nd half stress? Wtf happened to Ynoa? He was our #1 for a minute last year. Does DeGrom opt out, and do we actually make a play for him?

I think if AA gets the combination of answers he’s looking for, we won’t be bringing Charlie back. At least not at $20 million. There’s too high of a chance he falls off a cliff and gives you nothing or we just have enough other guys they trust to fill the rotation and can better use that $20 million elsewhere (like re-signing Dansby, extending Fried or Riley, etc…). You’d love to always have a veteran starter like Charlie in the rotation, but it’s just too big of an unnecessary risk at that price imo (assuming those questions get answered sufficiently).

Yeah, your nicknames are terrible, and quite frankly, a bit homoerotic.
