  1. 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.
  2. I get what you're doing. That said:
  3. For anyone suffering through Smoltz, this is what you're missing:
  4. He got it done is half the time last time out. Batter-to-batter from the opening pitch?
  5. Was this ever in doubt?
  6. Feels like a lifetime ago.
  7. Maybe Tucker will pull his head out and get on base for Dooby or Maldy
  8. Not sure where Tucker’s head is these days, just it’s for damn sure not in these baseball games.
  9. Have to be batter-to-batter here. Would have even be fine with Maton starting this inning.
  10. Fucking pitch 4 to Lowe was a strike. Should have been out of that inning.
  11. Today is a great day to start a 4-game winning streak.
  12. The great thing about this post is that it works for any situation.
  13. There's one.
  14. Get a run or two, chase Eovaldi, win it against their pen.
  15. Honestly, that would have been a big help.
  16. He'll treat him like LMJ in Game 3 of the 2022 WS. Let him eat as much as he can and save the pen.
  17. Welp, I guess we might get to see France today after all.
  18. I thought by the time we got to the ALCS we were done with the day game bullshit.
  19. Fewer double plays. Probably better at blocking balls in the dirt.
