    Who else would you have pitch? McHugh has been used a lot. Not a save situation so not Rondon. Not a Loogy situation. Harris has been pitching a bit recently. And it is a four run lead.

    The fan in me wants a steal of 3rd here to make it easier to score.......which he might have on that pop but I know it's not the right baseball decision

    Hinch’s job isn’t to make sure Giles gets work, it’s to help us win ballgames. Hinch is awesome but every time he puts Giles out there in these situations he deserves every bit of reasonable criticism he receives.

    Cmon guys let’s end this... one hit does it. We can’t keep tossing this pen out there.

    Blech, Springer's had pitches to crush last 2 ABs and just missed both of them.

    I would have forced the issue there and made him throw me out. Oh well he’s a 21 YO rookie and didn’t want to make the first out at third.

    Or his plan is to keep letting Giles blow in meaningless July games so Lunhow will be forced to trade/cut him.

    I’m mostly kidding here FYI

    Well, have NEVER seen an ending like that.

    Bregman's effort to avoid the tag really payed off.

    already has 2 saves against the red sox. are you really making your judgment off of possibly the first 2 games you watched him in this season?

    curious to see who you think is a better option on the market that's readily available (i don't even think treinen is tbh).

    against cleveland, boston, and new york he has pitched 9 innings and only given up 1 run.

    Bregman is a good luck charm.


    I have never seen that in 40 years of playing and watching baseball
