With our starting pitching it almost doesn't matter WC vs Division besides the longer series. It feels like we'll be in a lot of 6-4 or 7-5 ballgames and need our bullpen to keep us ahead. Bats need to stay hot.

This is a fun little game. What do you expect to happen more often? Bats doing work or pitching shut things down?linkdude said:

That's the beauty of JV, and to a degree Framber. You know that if the offense is rough they have the ability to be a stone wall.
Same for Javier. He's shown flashes of his 2022 self.
But our offense is the superior group.

Neris had to issue an apology?! That's so soft.
It's because they tried to cancel him with the homophonic bull *****
Framber was not at his best last night. It was pretty clear that he got rattled real quick in the 1st inning.
I thought it was a good job by Maldy & Josh Miller to get Framber back on track and to get more innings out of him.

Julio plays for the other team? Or did Neris use a no no word?Farmer1906 said:

Lame. Liked Neris calling him out. We've seen too much passive aggressive bs from Servais' Mariners over recent years.

Media played a game of telephone and decided they could "get" Neris.
I miss chinese Yuli scandal
I remember, wasn't that with Dhervish?

Hector Neris has been one of the vocal leaders in the clubhouse this year. As good as he's been coming out of the bullpen, he's possibly meant even more behind the scenes. Neris will demand big money this off-season. The Astros #1 free agency target this offseason will likely be Josh Hader, but if that doesn't work out, I think it would be worth trying to retain Neris. He means a lot to this ballclub.
Casually dropping a Hader bomb.
Sure hope it's not Hader after the news today.
I think it was Maeda
Hey guys. Y'all realize Angel Hernandez is not good, right?

I see it both ways. That guy has a 1.18 ERA and is a few games away from getting generational changing money. His team blew it already. Why put yourself in a situation you're not comfortable with in a meaningless game?
If Hernandez and Bucknor were white they would have been **** canned years ago.

Because that's what you're paid to do? He's thrown 53 innings this year...he can't get four outs?
Is he paid to get 4 outs or 3?
Would you feel differently if we stretched a SP out from 90 to 120?

Does a Jays win hurt or help us?
No?
All of the tie breakers give me tired head.
We want Jays to lose.
He's paid to pitch when they tell him to pitch. It tells you a lot about a person when they duck responsibilities like that. The competitive spirit in most major leaguers wouldn't do what he did.
Yeah, I put all the scenarios together last night on here. With only 3 games left, it was a lot more complicated than I thought.OKCAg2002 said:

Really?
33% more work, no?
Julio got his feelings hurt.
Julio Rodriguez refused to comment on the exact words they Hector Neris said. But he made it clear he never plans to speak to him again.

It's impossible to be this bad unless you are really trying. Sucks for the game man.

What a soft little *****. I thought professional athletes were supposed to be alphas but it appears Julio is not.
More like Va-Jay Rod, am I right?
Julio is a loquacious fellow when he's winning.
He's Karen when he's losing.
He's Karen when he's losing.

At this point it's the mlbs fault for not tossing him.
