I wouldn't mind if Adley only caught 2 days a week from now until the end of the season.  Let him DH and take some days off and get out of the squat so he's fresh for the playoffs.    McCann is a very able backup defensively.

I don't know about just 2 a week, but it certainly seems like Hyde is giving him days off a bit more often.   Makes sense as his decline in production in the 2nd half of the season very well could be related to the fatigue of catching so much and playing so much.

Incredible consistency all around for this team.   Almost too perfect to be believed.

Great record at home, similar great record on the road,

One of the best records in MLB when scoring first, one of the bast records in baseball when the other team scores first.

And of course the complete lack of being swept or prolonged losing streaks.  We have lost more than 2 straight games just twice... a 3 game losing streak and a 4 game losing streak.  

@Frobbyas documented the record in every 10 game stretch and it is incredibly consistent too.

The number of comeback wins has also been insane. We're never out of it.

Picture keeps going in and out. Sound stays.  The funny thing is it doesn't seem to be doing it during commercial breaks.

Praying for a good Gibson.   He might be due to be good.

Same for me on firestick

Schanuel looks like he gets a lot of HBP. Right on top of the plate.

Man, MLB.TV has been terrible the past couple of days

It was doing it for me on the computer and on my Apple TV. Checking Roku now and yep. It's even worse on Roku because the sound is dropping out too.

I think we may be getting another bad Gibson game

Got out of it, but the lumber was really clickin'

Yep. I guess it's not just me. Keeps going like this and it will be an easy decision to not stay up.

The Angels feed is having similar issues.  I'm also watching the STL/ATL game and there are no issues with theirs.

Some pretty hard contact in the first for LAA

I think you are right...hope we are both wrong, though...

[Yossarian]

It seems the microphone location in this ball park really picks up the crack of the bat
