Llovera won't even be on the roster tomrrow.Cora has less pitchers to keep track of as far as unavailability for tomorrow this way.
Perhaps. Tho in fairness you’ve been saying this for a month.They needed this game. Damn.
That might have been more interesting if they did that an inning earlier. Oh well.Probably going to get a fair amount of Murphy today & then they'll send him down tomorrow.
Sounds like they had a mini party yesterday.I missed all the horrific defense tonight but I wonder whether it’s a feature with this team after they play a stretch of good ball, really grinding shit out, to lose their focus on defense.
No, it's a bugI missed all the horrific defense tonight but I wonder whether it’s a feature with this team after they play a stretch of good ball, really grinding shit out, to lose their focus on defense.
Sounds like an analytically, front office collaborated decisionAlex Cora has spent the better part of the last two seasons managing the bullpen as if winning is rarely realistically within reach when the deficit is bigger than a single run and I don’t know if it’s more frustrating for him to be right or wrong about that.
I'm going to lose my mind the next time an effective starter is pulled too early and we lose because of it.Those two runs. Cora just punted. Stealing innings. On the other hand, he probably figures they will never score 3 in the ninth.
He is allegedly being replaced by Hhatera.Llovera won't even be on the roster tomrrow.
This journey is hard to escape from.Just a fourth-place team
Hanging on to playoff dreams
We still keep hoping they're going anywhere
They've been so shitty, boy
Lost to Oakland and Detroit
So hard to see 'em going anywhere
Just when you think they're all but doomed
They win a bunch, our hopes exhumed
A roller coaster every night
It goes on and on and on and on
Winning, failing
Up and down in the wild card
The failures hurting every time
Defense, is feeble
Playing with my emotions
Riding, up or down every night
Watching games, and hoping still
Every win is such a thrill
Then they'll blow one to crush the odds
Just one more time
Some we'll win, some we'll lose
but we'll end up singing the blues
Up and down, it never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
Sweeping, then getting swept
Up and down in the wild card
Highs and lows, lurching every night
Squanders, feeble
Messing with my emotions
Why'd I get my hopes up every night?
Don't start believin'
Let go of that feelin'
Defense, feeble
Don't start believin'
Don't hold on
Give up, people
Don't start believin'
Let go of that feelin'
We should give up, people
Don't start believin'...
Murphy is the patron saint of the shuttle to Woostah.Chris Murphy is being optioned for Houck, which was more and more obvious as this game went on. I think Llovera stays.
