You know what, **** it. This time I'm going to believe in the comeback.

Kikuchi was at 100 pitches. Don't want his arm falling off. Doesn't help that we have injuries and a bullpen that sucks right now.

97, let him pitch this inning and you still have a chance. Instead they chose actual scrubs.

Also Kikuchi will be traded by July so I don’t think we need to worry too much

Varsho sucks even more.

No he’s this team’s most valuable player by a ton this year by WAR

Now if you want to trade Varsho for an actual good player instead of those bums, I’d be open to it

That's saying much seeing how awful this team is right now. Nobody is going to give up a good player for Varsho.

I'd rather have a healthy Kikuchi if I was to trade him then risking an injury.

For the best defensive player in baseball and a likely 5 WAR player this season? I have a feeling you’re wrong

Deciding to name Turner, Jansen, Bichette - Snap, Crackle and Pop. We're winning on a walkoff by Bo.

Nah... you're wrong. Could care less about the defense if he can't hit a baseball to save his life.

I have been watching on and off. But I think I saw Yimi Garcia warming up in the pen -- why warm him up and then not use him... and use Pearson? Or was it a few innings back and they didn't want to warm Garica up again.

Why waste a good pitcher in a game you're definitely losing (we gave up more than 0 runs).

Unlikely

And now they will lose due to using joke RPs in the 9th

That play summarizes the season to date. Game.

Good thing we went to Pearson there. Excellent game management.
