Well, after losing to some mediocre teams, maybe they'll start sweeping the top teams?

Good to see Josh Palacios back. Although perhaps not, since it's at the expense of another injury to Springer.

“We could have gone forever. (Raptors management) kept knocking on the door and I was like, ‘A couple more minutes.’ Because we were really into it."

Bichette, Semien and Vladdy have cooled off quite a bit. If they were hitting like they were earlier this season, we would have had a few more wins right now.

What a wasted opportunity. This team always finds a way to shoot themselves in the foot. Such a frustrating team to watch with all that talent.

Wow that could have been ugly with Kimbrel sliding in with his spikes at home plate.

Just took a Reese McGuire infield hit and two wild pitches to get er done. That's top shelf execution right there

picked a hell of a game to attend. first one since 2019. felt a bit surreal but glad to finally be able enjoy some live sports again.

also about damn time we had some luck go our way, especially when our bats were super quiet. otherwise, really liked what i saw from manoah. had some trouble getting guys out at points but still pitched himself out of a few jams. he'll figure that out in time.

on to the next one.

We gave up two of our top 10 prospects for this guy?

Berrios has been a terrible acquisition so far. Absolutely terrible.

Letting Berrios keep pitching would be a way better option than Thornton.
