Don’t renew Dusty’s contract. Don’t resign Maldy. Find a decent LF and some bullpen depth.
-
Fitting end to the series: Brantley and Tucker do nothing with RISP.
-
Of course Maldy is hitting here. Of course he is

Perfect ending to the Dusty Baker era. Fucking dumbass decision after dumbass decision with not even the slightest hint of a plan. Fuck him for how he’s managed this team.

Uncle Mike has had at least three opportunities with RISP the last two games and hasn’t driven in a single run. Just let down again and again by anyone not named Altuve, Bregman, or Yordan.

Sure would be cool if Tucker and/or Pena unfucked themselves tonight.

Bagwell first pitch. @tx 3 putt ain’t gonna like that
I would have rather seen Bagwell take the top of the 9th last night than Montero.

I’m still absolutely stunned that Dusty ran Singleton out there with the bases loaded and two outs. Even for Dusty that was some crazy shit.

It makes zero sense to run Singleton out there. I am not being hyperbolic. There is simply no logical or strategic reason to run him out there in that situation.
He's not a contact hitter, and that's exactly what you needed there--someone who could hit a line drive to the outfield to tie it up. He drew a walk on Friday? Great. There are two outs, and Maldy is hitting behind him, who you ended up pinch hitting for anyway and likely would have if Singleton does draw a walk. So, at worst, you send Diaz up in that spot instead and guarantee an AB for the guy who you really want to hit there. I would have sent Chas up, you know that guy who has been a well-above average MLB hitter all season and homered in Game 4 and has the speed to leg one out if it comes down to it, but either way, you can't give Singleton that AB.
Please someone tell me I'm missing something because I am losing my shit thinking our manager really just rolled with Singleton because he thought it would make a cool moment if he came through.
Fuck it. We'll either celebrate going to the World Series again tonight or we'll celebrate Dusty not managing the team anymore. I refuse to entertain the possibility they'll bring him back for another season. If we do, we deserve to have the golden era come to an end.

So Famber in game 6 with a short leash? Can we really afford to let him give up 4-6 runs in >4 innings? If it were an away game maybe, but not at home where the bats don't work.
He got it done is half the time last time out. Batter-to-batter from the opening pitch?

Maybe Tucker will pull his head out and get on base for Dooby or Maldy

Not sure where Tucker’s head is these days, just it’s for damn sure not in these baseball games.
-
Have to be batter-to-batter here. Would have even be fine with Maton starting this inning.
-
Fucking pitch 4 to Lowe was a strike. Should have been out of that inning.

Today is a great day to start a 4-game winning streak.

Not sure Montero is the right pitcher to bring in.
The great thing about this post is that it works for any situation.

If we could get him for relatively cheap, I'd love to have him back. He's 39 and may not give you a full season, but I'd love to have him as our 3rd or 4th starter.
