Trash team. We had a little rivalry going before, but we've left them in the dust. Should be an easy sweep.

I wish we had Kikuchi on the mound today to counter, but we should be okay with Manoah.

Probably shouldn't be throwing 1-2 sliders up to Julio Rodriguez, yeah.

Or to Cal Raleigh either apparently. Awful pitch.

Too bad we had our #5 going today against Castillo.

Wasn't a terrible pitch really. 1-2 slider down and out of the zone, and he golfed it.

People upset about our HR jacket and the Mariners are doing goddamned Poseidon cosplay.

Bichette literally 45% the size of Manoah.

I don't care about HR jackets, but I do care about Manoah hanging bad sliders (and yes, the one to Raleigh qualifies, that was not good enough after letting him see it multiple times in the AB before that). He looks terrible in this game again.

So what do we do about this **** guy now. Walking the 9th batter not even Close. Command looks worse than nate pearson.

Gotta disagree. He has hung some sliders, but the pitch Raleigh hit out was 3" off the plate down. That's where you want a slider with downward movement to finish.

The walks are a much bigger issue than a guy going fishing and catching something.

What is there to do? He just has to pitch better at some point. It's not like they're dropping him out of the rotation.
