According to Twitter, it's possible Reddick's hand is hurt enough to lift him from the game.

I'd go to Pressly in the 8th
Framber has absolutely been a workhorse today.
5 runs isn't ideal but glad he got through 7 innings. We needed it
Now we need to win it in 9.... can't afford to go into extras

Franber gave up 5 but he damn well did his job and ate up innings.
Bunting Brantley? Worked out but I hate that call
Wtf bunt, and wtf throw.
Crazy
Crazy
That was almost certainly Brantley's decision
What a freakin' ugly AB.
As hot as it is I can't believe they run framber back out
And he's battled. Not like it's been a breeze of a game.

I seriously question Dusty's mental capacity...
I'm starting to feel a little uneasy about the year extension myself
Valdez needs to man up and take that grounder to the chest to block it
Fightin' Texas Aggie and Sam Houston State Bearkat
Hats off to Valdez. He has done well overall.
Might be time Dusty
Watch for a squeeze...
What a stupid ass decision by dusty
I'm shocked. Who could have seen this coming? (Sarcasm)
Hard to imagine there's a worse manager in the big leagues than Dusty Baker
Can anyone remember the last time Dusty actually made to RIGHT decision?
Is the correct spelling Dustyed or Dustied?
What everyone of you said. Dusty is so stupid
...and I don't think Devo is going to help

I get that being a MLB manager is tough job--everyone blames you for every pitching change, pinch hitter, lineup change that doesn't work out. But, geez, Baker seems to be just randomly making choices, and every one seems to bite him in the backside. Seems like one decision would work out by accident....
Given the contracts we lose after this season, why didn't we add something to fill the gaping holes in the bullpen. If we aren't going to try to win this year, then Click should have sold.
Franchise went from having A-level leadership to below average.
If I am missing something about the current direction of the franchise that has been communicated, please let me know. Are we trying to win now, in rebuild mode, or just sleeping this year?

The worst part about this is Framber going from 5 in 7, which was fine, to probably 8 in 7+
Yeah...that was a bad move to keep him in that long. The bullpen has been bad for sure but you gotta keep going to them until they can get outs.
It is entirely possible that this road trip takes us out of the playoffs.
I wasn't happy with the Dusty hire ... but I didnt think he'd be bad. I wanted Espada to be named interim for this season and then go all out on a search in November 2020
Dusty has exceeded my expectations for how bad he'd be. He doesn't get this team and I think him being away from the game for 3 years has hurt him.

The guys on 790 before Friday said we would have to finish 9-15, and the mariners would have to go 16-9 for them to pass us (give or take a few games I dont remember exactly)
Since then we have lost 3 games and they have won 3 straight
For the Astros to finish .500: We need to go 9-12 to finish the season (including today)
For the mariners to finish .500: they need to go 12-8 to finish
