Wednesday, August 2: Grayson Rodriguez & Orioles vs Yusei Kikuchi Blue Jays

[Moshagge3]

There goes Gunnar Henderson showing up Mateo again.

[mrbig1]

Gunnar is our MVP.

What a joy it is to watch Gunnar play the field.

If Hyde has learned these three things:

1. Mateo is exclusively a pinch-runner at this point.

2. Do not bring Fujinama in in high-leverage situations.

3. Do not write Hays higher than #7 in the lineup.

This will have been a "good" loss.

 

 

If Elias has learned to option or DFA Mateo after this game, I'll consider that a win.

We might have won today if Hyde go ejected this game, where he couldn't make all these stupid moves this game. Hyde is a great manager, just not today.

We haven't had a big 9th inning comeback in awhile.

I get the feeling this is going to be the most upvoted "popular" post of the entire thread.

I'd sign up for that.

Irvin impressive -- didn't hit anybody.

[Billy F-Face3]

Irvin could have been the 5th man, IMO.

He gets charged with the runners who got on base when he was still in.

  I can see 2 hits but 2 HBP. Unreal.

They didn't even hit it out of the infield once that inning and scored 3 runs.

[Moose Milligan]

We're gonna lose this game 4-1 WHEN THEY HAD ONLY THREE HITS THE ENTIRE FING GAME.

[Emory Eagle]

What a waste of an excellent GRod start.  Why bring in Fuji with two men on??? This one got under the skin.

It's good to have a healthy competition.
