Think they'd be walking Seager to face Garver?

Intentional walk for Seager ..... why, because of Grossman in the 3 hole.

Bad time for Semien to go cold, but he'll hopefully come out of and just take for a month.

3 ****ing innings is all it took for Bochy to look like a buffoon with his lineup choices. Brutal.

Swings right through a fastball in the middle of the plate. Unreal.

And there it is. Seager intentionally walked.
So stupid. Why is Grossman there.

I still would, if I were them lol.

But I'd feel much better about Lowe or Garver behind Seager than Grossman...

Right down the dick. Strikeout.

If the other team IBB's your #2 hitter in the 3rd inning then it's absolute lineup fail.

Eflin gets Grossman with the sneaky "fastball down the middle" strategy.

Grossman must have pics or something.

hitting Grossman 3rd is indefensible

If you want to play Grossman, fine, but him batting 3rd is absurd.

Sucks to leave a runner on 3rd

Grossman has pics on Bochy. That is the only explanation.

And that's why you shouldn't have Grossman hitting in the 3 hole behind Seager.

It's wild. Men on 1st and 2nd, no outs, semien in a slump and grounds into a dp, opponent walks your best hitter bc your guy in the 3 hole is awful. Wtf man.

The only guess is that Bochy thinks he's playing 4D chess, and if Tampa brings in a lefty to face Seager, then he'd have Grossman in the 3 hole to protect him... but that strategy would ignore the first 3 at bats of the game where he's likely to face a righty and be the black hole that he always is.

Or as mentioned, he might have nudes of Bochy.
Proposition Joe

We have hit the point where I can safely say this roster wins despite Bochy's roster moves. No idea how he is as a leader or "recruiter", but the bullpen usage and now lineup decisions is just void of any actual strategy.

We're not gonna have to score many today the Eovaldi is dealing.

You forget we have a bullpen?

Eovaldi may be in a pitch limit range today

Never enough runs for this bullpen. My guess is they have to get 9 outs today.

Evo looking very strong!

Possibly and we need to get the bats going anyway...

Please please let this mean Evo is back. Monty, Evo, Dunning and a potential Scherzer add gives us a pretty formidable playoff rotation.

To be honest, we haven't paid it off yet, but some good at bats so far and some hard hit balls. Time to bring back our sequencing skills from a few years back
