If that last hit off of Hendrickson had gone 10 feet further he would've been out of it. The box score shows 3ER, but that's only because they didn't ring up BRob for an E. It should be just 2 ER.

I can't believe everybody here was fussing at the P. We knew he was marginal. With standard good-D, we'd be up 3-2.

Oooops. I guess Hendrickson would have done worse?

Now it's going to show a whole lot more...

We keep hearing that we have to protect the bullpen. How can they say that and justify running Hendrickson and Eaton out there?

Who would you propose replace them?

Yep. 4 out of the 9 runs.

So, that's 5 runs that never should've crossed the plate had our defense played like our defense tonight.

Let's attack Hendrickson, though.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By Bemorewins · Posted

      While I wouldn’t love a trade involving Basallo.  And would prefer a lesser tier player. I understand that you have to give value in order to get value. And I don’t think we can continue to afford to punt present opportunities for future possibilities (that may or may not come). I also acknowledge what you stated that Miller has a notable injury risk. But I believe you don’t make the shots that you don’t take. IMO Miller would put us over the top in terms of being a WS favorite this year. And if we could pair him with Bautista for a few seasons in the future, the odds would be seriously stacked in our favor in the postseason.

      They didn't draft him to hit home runs. That said, I think he'll get one out this year. More than likely on the road, given Aberdeen's dimensions, but he's hitting it well now.

      Big fan of JM.   Even as bad as he was late last year I always thought he was an asset.   Very happy to see him hitting better, and his fielding has never been better.  He looks like a savant out there.

      Not as many wins as the Yankees.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By Philip · Posted

      I don’t disagree with anything you said, my point was that he slipped a bit. Normally you’re right, it wouldn’t matter, great players have bad days. However, with his injury, history, and the fact that he’s always throwing as hard, it is possible for a human to throw, the injury risk lowered the price a bit. A few weeks ago, I posted about the possibility of a Basallo/Miller trade, so I’m definitely willing to acquire him, and pay a lot for him to boot. But the injury risk is real, and, although it’s minor, probably irrelevant, he has slipped a bit recently.

      Austin Hays 2024

      By Say O! · Posted

      Putting aside results/outcomes for the moment, but To me, Hays has physically looked stronger/faster these last few appearances (even if sporadic usage) rather than his IMO 80% and constantly banged/nicked up.  I see him continuing to get more comfortable in this limited role and be a real asset as weak side platoon and pinch hitting option.
