    2024. Such a waste of cap space. Love uncle Mike but he done.

    McCullers has been a far bigger waste of cap space IMO. He should probably be a late inning reliever only. If he could even stay healthy

    I mean do we? 

    We just lost to a team in the Elite 8 that plays nobody bigger than 6'7. Larranega is a top 10 coach in college basketball and really I think Miami is the model we should be following. 

    I.e. a bunch of combo guards that can score with an athletic big (even if undersized). So pretty much what Beard was doing at Texas. 

    I agree, though if we're looking for taller guys, it needs to be wings who can actually shoot. We had Timmy Allen and Dillon Mitchell. Jordan Miller ate us alive and was the difference in the game

  3. The refs were just gasoline feeding the fire that was Terry's bad lineups, lack of adjustments, and overreliance on Carr and Allen.  The offense was Timmy Allen bricks and turnovers for way too long. Dillon Mitchell got a lot of minutes in the second half, but Morris, who might have been able to spell Carr well, didn't play. We didn't call any plays (or called stupid ones) down the stretch, and Carr made mistakes on back-to-back possessions.

    The job should definitely be his, and most likely behind the scenes he knows that, but let’s focus on the next 3 games and then announce it during the championship post game.

    Yeah, while this is probably overthinking it, I’d also wait to announce it. The players seem inspired to play for him to win a contract

    Ovie is avg but he did improve our Edge position..  On paper this transition class looked to be really good.. and it still can be.  Let's see how Quinn finishes up this season and how he plays next season.  Billingsley coming back next year?  Neyor hopefully recovers from his knee injury and balls out next season too

    Ovie is frustratingly average at his best. Most of the time he’s unplayable.

    Win tomorrow night and we're still in good shape with big SP advantages in games 3 and 4.

    This one hurts because we blew a big lead, but 1-1 was always the most likely outcome of the first two.  Get it there and we're still the favorites.

    I don’t trust Dusty to manage this team to our advantages. He neutralized our biggest one tonight by not taking Verlander out and pitching Luis for 0.2

    I mean, it's not as if LMJ has one of the best curveballs in the game.

    Wait, yes it is.

    Groundball pitchers against a _ew York Yankees team that hits home runs or strikes out

    All of the Yankees bullshit talk about the roof being open perplexes me.  They play in a stadium that doesn't have a fucking roof.  They should be used to winds and other conditions affecting the ball.

    Don’t be perplexed. They’re Yankees.

    @Helobious y'all had the chance to put a major dent in this series and swung and missed. That 8th inning had my pulse racing. If the Yanks had stolen this game tonight with a big inning there, I think their chances of winning the series is pretty high considering the bump it would give that team after yesterday's game 5 victory. Pressure is still on the Stros to win game 2. 

    There’s no pressure. It’s going to be a sweep or gentleman’s sweep.

    You’ll never admit it, but the refs did you a solid there.

    What's there to admit? It could have been called targeting, but he did lead with his shoulder. It could have been down, but it didn't look like it. Sometimes those plays happen. I'm glad it went in our favor this time.
