good thing we didn't bench him or move him to the bottom of the lineup


Not even Randle would suggest that, but his hr yesterday was not the same swing plane as his recent ground ball inducing swing - in the time off last week he must have done some work on his swing

Agree. Do not need to see him pitch again this series. Same with inserting IKF as a Starter. IKF Stopped the hitting momentum everytime he came to the plate.

Better to confirm that these two scrubs should be parked on the bench in close games the rest of the series and even post-season (if this team advances). Hopefully both of these guys are not on the ALCS roster also.


If Bo is healthy, IKF doesn't make it.

And in a seven game series, we'll see one of the other starters make it over Bruihl.

Gotta win this series first though... can't get ahead of ourselves...

So much for New York homers. Looks like we’re the power threat this series

We still have fluharty, little and lauer no idea why we would be using bruihl in any high leverage situation involving a lefty.


confirmation to not to add him to the ALCS roster. :lol:


It was a mistake (overthinking) to put him in the first place. Yes. I actually pitched the 4 lefty thing, and not sure what happened to Borucki after he decided to accept assignment back to Buffalo. That probably would have been an unnecessary pick as well. But in reality, the 13th pitcher shouldn't be a factor in a short series anyway with multiple days off. Bruihl is our Paul Blackburn.

But as I said whining about the guy pitching in a 12-0 game is a hell of a great place to be as a fan of a team.

Moreno already made a World Series and made an impact in the playoffs

You don't trust this bullpen with a 12 run lead?


He was cruising with a no-hitter and 11k's. At least let him finish the inning.

Now the Yanks are hitting, gaining confidence and momentum.


He was up to 78 pitches, totally pointless having him potentially get up to around 100 in a 12 run game.

lol momentum? Do you expect us to shut them out?

If he’s not going all the way, no reason to leave him in any longer.

Edit: IKF no fit in.

Blue jays bats getting hot at the right time. Great to see after that stretch where they weren’t scoring more than 1 run a game
