Raley is sporting a new glove. Nothing like a little MLB swag.

Maybe we can convince Dusty to take more naps during games.

I think we can all agree but this game would be a little bit closer if the pitching change had gone as planned.

Especially when he's calling James in to pitch.

Regardless of how bad Dusty is, I'm still glad it wasn't Bannister

Raley faced Belt in college


How's he do?
unfortunately the burnt orange roughed up the Ags pretty bad in those years

so once Raley went to the mound in the 8th...he re-invoked the 3-batter minimum rule.

even though he had previously satisfied it by completing the 7th inning

Was Assmus a candidate?

I was of the belief we should have made Espada the interim and then go full search in the 2021 offseason if necessary

Yep. It was a shallow pool of candidates. I mean kiddie pool shallow.

I think we should have made Espada the interim and hired AJ again the second we could.

Interesting. I assumed the 3 batter rule only applied when entering the game. Not coming back out for a new inning.

I'm baffled why baker would even consider James there. Thank goodness Raley went out there

Yep. Worked for Sean Payton. I would have done it for both AJ and Lunhow. But Crane was too busy bending over and pissing the Ryan's off.

Why wouldn't you just let Raley finish it?

Bring in another pitcher have no idea what he's got today. Raley looked sharp

dusty's incompetence might just start the "rehire AJ" movement. As more time goes by people are cooling off and with perspective I think it's pretty obvious what happened was not that big of a deal. He didn't commit a crime, he didn't beat his wife... I mean there's a lot worse stuff that people do in baseball and take a lot lighter sentence.

Why do you say he was bent on pissing off the Ryan's. He definitely bent over and took it. Maybe to save the ring. I really don't know.

Pretty sure he just invoked the three batter rule for the first batter. Then he hit three total and could have been pulled, but we just let him finish. Purely because he can't put and grabbed the ball I think. It's good because James blows.

Anytime someone is going to get pulled for James or Sneed, they should just run back out there real quick. This five relievers a night **** has got to go. Just let the hot hand roll.

We've hashed this out countless times but I don't think it was that he did it. The issue was Crane had explicitly told them to ensure we weren't doing anything along those lines and he was given those assurances.

It was the blatant lying to Crane that burned that bridge.

They showed Reddick's rob of Pence last year, with a sprint speed of 17.1 mph. Usain Bolt's fastest ever was 27.8 mph in 2009, and the fastest players in the NFL are between 20 and 22 mph. I wonder what Josh's speed is today, and what someone like Straw is.

Average human is 15.
