what? Springer not in the lineup
We are managed by someone dumber than a junior minor dad. What can I say? I mean Dusty is worse for his team than ButtChin for his.

At least Dusty can't trade away our best players

If I'm Springer I'm PISSED

Biggest series of the year with playoffs on the line and he's our best hitter right now in a free agent year and he's riding pine.

Why on earth would he want to stay and play for Dusty after that?

WTF?!?!?
And he's been hitting like .270 with around a .850 OPS the past 28 games. He needs to be out there in meaningful gams at this point.

But, regardless of the offense we trot out there for this game, the most important person in this lineup is LMJ. If he is not at least respectable and can't save the BP, he will be screwing us more than any offense would.

Here's to hoping we get a quality game LMJ.

21 pitches, 3 outs and 0 runs. I'd call that a successful start for a McCullers road game.

george is 0-15 in his career as a pinch hitter...So he's due.

Just more strategery by Dusty.

As much as I love Correa...I will never understand how he takes so many called 3rd strikes that are no doubters.

This team needs a big swing on the road in the worst way.

Sometimes I think it's being to selective. Just my opinion.

He can run them off though. Or make it where FAs don't want to come here.

I think all of these fly ball outs by Straw have been interesting this year. Just get that launch angle down a little bit, dude!

Altuve is the 2nd best bad ball hitter I've ever seen, behind Vlad. He might actually be better at it than Vlad, excluding this year.

Pretty sure he did on that walk-off against the Rockies, but it sure doesn't feel like it, does it?

Lance didn't get that call last inning...

I like the swings we're putting on Gonzales though. Soon those have to turn into something good for us.

Marco Gonzales is 9th in the majors in WAR for pitchers...just saying

Edit: just for clarity I heard that on a podcast earlier today, looks like it's officially 13th in the AL, per fangraphs

Brantley should have been on second but he didn't run out of the box. Should be 1-0
