I kind of figured they'd have a quick hook with Elder. I was wrong.

You don’t have to have a perfect team but you have to at least give yourself the best chances to win matchup wise.

If Harper hits that off Hand/Minter that’s one thing, but allowing Harper to face Elder there is absolutely fricking brain dead shite.

This isn’t June 15. Elder has a place as an innings eater but him getting through Schwarber/Harper once was miracle enough, you absolutely cannot allow him to face Harper there under any circumstance.

I would’ve had Hand ready here


That’s the problem with only having 1 left-handed specialist in the pen. You just never know when to use him. Obviously, in hindsight, I wish we’d have used him there. But if Harper rolls over to 1st base there, we may be glad we still have Hand for later. We may still go on to win the World Series, but AA did a terrible job of constructing this bullpen.

They got drunk on those first two innings, but it’s not a coincidence that both teams started barreling the ball once the batters eye got covered in shade.

Easily a spot for Hand there

I could’ve lived with that

I think they used all their right button pushing for 21 and they’ve been shite since

He’s very very limited stuff wise. Allowing them to see him a second time is just insane.

Putting Tonkin in here with the game somewhat still undecided was so fricking stupid.

Now just ride him for the rest of the game even if he throws 200 pitches

Well Tonkin might get an opportunity to pitch a whole lot now.

Felt like we were betting it all on Strider/Fried and trying to steal this one. I still can’t believe we let Elder pitch to Harper.
