Hopefully we aren't dumb enough to keep Santander in the clean up spot.

We could have used a random lineup generator today and done better.

It would be his third appearance in four days. The couple of times this year he has pitched three times in 4 days he looked terrible. Keep Coughman away from the mound.

Vlad probably gets 100m less on the open market after his season.

Technically yes but could’ve gone either way, easily would’ve accepted a ball

I still trust him over Jeff Coughman to get three outs.

I can’t believe we’re going into the post season with coughman as our closer still

It would not be a Brendon Little appearance, without this guy giving up a Walk.

Wherever moved,he should bat behind Kirk,or whoever our hottest hitter is because right now he needs all the protection he can get,and maybe that will help,but based on his swing,no,i wouldnt expect anything but the same popups,groundballs,unless he somehow hits a ball on a line or a deep HR,then maybe the slump will be over then.His swing needs to flatten out more.Looks like he is trying to punch the ball with his bat.
