Will Wagner had his ML debut and had 3 hits last night for Toronto! Hated that we traded him and Loperfido, but our new pitcher is doing a great job so far.

Pressly is such a liability. Anything under a 4 run lead with him seems like it's always a sweat

And then the end of the season and post season roles around and he's elite. Like clockwork.

Part of why their plate approach can be so maddening. Bases loaded in the top of the 8th with 1 out and nursing a 3-1 lead and we proceed to strike out and ground out without scoring a run. How about a team AB? Instead of trying to hit a tank, shorten up and look to shoot a ground ball through the right side?

Missed the last half of the game. Why did Kilkuchi only go 5 2/3 innings? Line looked good.

He would have made it through six but Altuve had an error on a play that would have been out #3.

Just looked at his last few starts. I guess he runs his pitch count up quickly.

Agree, but just keep chalking up wins at this point. After the last 4 outings with a bunch of runs, having to scrap out a win was bound to happen

For sure. My frustration was more general at that approach and using that as a specific example. Fortunately it didn't bite them in the ass.

This.

Hell, bunt squeeze would be fine with me. Pete Rose the ball - you don't need a dinger. Just something other than swinging for the fences every time and walking away with 2 K's and zero runs.

Ok, I've "slept" over 23,000 times in my life (yea I'm an "Old") but I never remember messing up my elbow, or any joint for that matter, from sleeping.

WTH are these guys doing on their off days?

Is Correa's masseuse still working the tine?
