    I don’t know what to say here with the Hinch decision.

    JV must've told AJ he didn't have it tonight or else he'd be up there bunting.

    Well it worked out for Hinch, lead off got on with Gattis on deck and then the top of the order

    Right now, Reddick is a better hitter when he doesn't swing.

    Hinch made either the best or worst decision of his entire life right now.

    Right decision. Leadoff runner on. We need someone who can hit, and Gattis has been seeing the ball well.

    50% Verlander is better than 100% bullpen

    Alright I'm literally praying to God right now that the offense wakes the F up and starts knocking some damn runs in here pretty soon, lol.

    hinch just playing mind games with our batters. by throwing out the bullpen, he is letting them know they better get some damn hits and get em some runs.

    this is the right decision here but Hinch was going with Gattis no matter what

    JV must be tired and he's possibly being saved for gm7 if it gets there

    Makes sense.

    JV can still win, if we ball right now.

    Let's make it happen, then unleash Lance.
