He looks so much better at the plate. Hope he makes the post season roster after what he's been through recovering from the shoulder injury.Farmer1906 said:

I do too, but I am not sure there is a scenario where I want him at the plate. He can be a defensive closer and pinch runner. An okay series or two isn't near enough to pass up Chas's body of work. I'd take Diaz and/or Mancini as a PH over him as well.Teddy Perkins said:He looks so much better at the plate.

97. I am not sure the big man is going to get enough opportunities.
Agreed. Happy to see it for him. I think he was pressing. I wonder if his arm strength is back yet.Teddy Perkins said:He looks so much better at the plate. Hope he makes the post season roster after what he's been through recovering from the shoulder injury.Farmer1906 said:

If Jake returns to form, a Jake/Chas/Tucker/Yordan/Dubon as and OF rotation is plenty solid. I didn't realize Dubon was just entering his arb years. Obviously wish we had a different option there for the 5th option, but he can play every defensive position basically and cross over to IF. That OF Allows us to spend on Yuli's replacement and JV.
Pretty nice play right there
Being the DH I don't think Dusty will pull him so he should get two more ABs. Let's hope there is some traffic on the bases for him to drive in.
That's 200 innings pitched this year for Framber Valdez, a career high.

This is terrific. The retiring Stephen Vogt was introduced by his kids during his final game. https://t.co/1W0u5XzDQ4

Mancini needs a slumpbuster, a live chicken, Jobu's rum, and a wood chipper to run his bats through.
Amazing season for Framber. AL innings pitched leader.
That’s going to be it for Framber Valdez, who leaves with the most innings pitched in the American League. Put a bow on that incredible season.

I'm glad he has 3 arbitration eligible years coming up. He'd be a $200 million plus left handed pitcher if he were an unrestricted FA right now. As It is he made $3 million last year.Teddy Perkins said:

Just realized the game was on. Tucker taken out after only 1 AB? Not hurt right, just giving him rest?

"game".. This game is closer to a parade than a game!
This was a cool moment for Stephen Vogt to homer in the final game of his MLB career. pic.twitter.com/JutWcBfspt

This is pretty cool for him
Phil Maton is warming in the Astros bullpen. Nick Maton is scheduled to bat second in the eighth inning for the Phillies.

The maton faceoff is nearing
Stanek made 2.2 for 2022, is in 3rd year of arbitration in 2023,, and is an ufa in 2024.
7 earned runs given up in 2022.

WHAT??? Vasquez with a HR? Last night, it was Machete. This afternoon, it's Vasquez.
Baseball is a beautiful game. Nothing like it!
We got the losing brother. Trade him.
That was very cool indeed.
Loved that
Only in baseball are meaningless end of the season games are this much fun.
