Had IKF not got that out I think we may have crashed the servers.

I am not trying to beat up Little but how does John justify using him in game 5 but not tonight? According to John he didn’t make a mistake but it would appear he actually believes he made a mistake.

Well, if he didn't go 3 for 24 before that, we might not have needed a game 7.

No division title or ALCS appearance without the real MVP

Probably no playoffs either


It's World Series or Bust!!!

Great inning by Dominguez and IKF is there for his defending.

FO is directing him who to use as far as bullpen arms in these games

It’s mapped out for him

Great inning by SD.

Get us started Vladdy. Get on base and hope the rest of the guys follow your lead.

Our defense is 5% better though with IKF at second vs Davis in OF, so you gotta take into account the 1-200 chance of that 5% having a meaningful impact, even if we are down runs and IKF is the worst hitter in the game.

so are we using any starters or is the talk "everyone is available" just something Schneider spews out like we're idiots?

Let’s look at it this way: if we comeback it’ll be more memorable. No, I’m not happy either, this is me saying the glass if half-full of toxic waste.

Barger

Need to space out the lefties so not an option

Barger was also awful in the cleanup spot for like 2 months to the point they moved him 4 days ago lol

I'll take the mirage that's getting hits and runs over what Kirk has provided in the 4 spot.

we should just fire Schneider then and use Chatgpt as the bench manager.
