Its funny to see skank fans get triggered by Vladdy with his shush motion, even though he always does it.

Keep gausman going as long as he can.

If Schneider takes out Gausman before the 7th inning that should be a fireable offense.

Having Gausman Vladdy and Varsho on my fantasy team has been fun today.

Enough is enough, Merrifield must get the lion share of 2B at bats, only if he plays LF and Kiermaier take a day off

Do not want to see Biggio subbing Merrifield, I don't care about lefty bat

I agree. Hopefully he can complete 8 innings, then I would prefer Swanson taking over. Romano has struggled a lot at Yankee Stadium. Give him the day off, especially after yesterday's outing.

I strangely feel calmness when a flyball towards LF and CF this year. I'm not used to this feeling

At least half the fly balls we faced today would have been hits against last year's OF.

Swanson is the best reliever on the team right now.

I think the batting lineup needs to be tweaked to optimized and not for lefty/righty matchup

1 Springer - struggling but we need him get going to compete
2 vladdy - keep his swing for contact instead of homerun cuts
3 bichette - keep being aggressive and drive runs in
4 Chapman - riding in his hot start
5 Kirk - Kirk is a better hitter than varsho
6 Merrifield - lion share of 2B atbats and at times LF
7 Varsho
8 Jano
9 Kiermaier

As with Bass and Garcia, Cimber is another guy who has looked much worse this year in the pen. Could be issues there.

5 hard hit balls in 5 batters. Yikes.

Always with two outs these pitchers struggle
