    Once again we can see this bullpen is really in need of some help.

    I agree sometimes they look as though they are just going through the motions. Kind of like what Nolan Ryan said about Josh Hamilton, he said he never saw Hank Aaron give away an at bat.

    Not going to blame mardi gras. They wanted him to pitch, let the defense help. Well the ball just got by marwin. The play is made and tuesday leaves the inning 3-2 still preserving mchughs gem. devo has hit a little bump. He'll get out of that.

    Meanwhile, LA can't lose a game.

    We'd BETTER *beat their ass in the playoffs... or, or I'll be disappointed

    Less worried about the Dodgers. Indians and Royals are playing some best baseball right now. Cleveland currently #2 seed and I'm positive KC can beat Boston in a wild card game.

    I hope so but with this bullpen it would be very hard

    Agreed, i think Correa would have made that play and saved Martes.. but Marwin looked a step slow....

    This game is on Hinch. Should have left Mchugh in for one more inning.

    Yeah, making the WS is another challenge. We've struggled against every other AL team that we'll face.

    Hopefully we're mostly healthy when things matter most. McHugh pitched very well today, so that can't hurt.

    Hinch is looking at the bjgger picture. McHugh's second game off the DL, pulled him at a good time. Look at it like a pre-season NFL game. Starting QB looked good before being pulled early...outcome of game really not that important. Backup QBs may need an upgrade though.

    what's going on right now doesn't really matter

    just need to be hot and healthy going into the playoffs

    and going 8-6 since the break is not exactly slumping

    Exactly. Not to mention this isn't exactly the same roster since the break.

    Devo had a 2.18 ERA last season, so his "earth" seems great.

    He might just need a 10-day vacation.
