    This game shows that, lack of brain power can definitely apply to both teams

    Tonight was when an easily movable object met a stationary force.

    Probably going to require a sweep of the Tigers to get a bye.

    Mon Arriighetti vs Melton
    Tue Brown vs Skubal
    Wed Valdez vs Morton

    At least we are going in with our 2 best starters and maybe an Arrighetti finding his form.

    I'll be a little mad if he's not on the bench again next year

    Feels like Dubon, who will be more expensive, will be non-tendered or traded this offseason.

    Orioles have the funniest logo. He looks like he's trying to stay calm as he watches his team give the game away.

    Yainer really hit into another double play in that last inning but got bailed out Jackson Holiday having a brainfart. I hope everyone realizes that.

    Have Peña steal on the first pitch and wait for the second to bunt. You know- the post you responded to?

    That would also make you a little stupid.

    But what else is knew.

    Nook is 100% spot on. Elite defense, a good enough bat with some pop. There is your answer.

    Almost forgot, hats off to Alexander. Three straight quality starts.

    What and Who the **** are you talking about?

    Urias? Who I literally just said needs to be on the bench next season?

    Hats off to the staff…

    Walker and Diaz make me want to claw my eyes out.

    Walker has been such a disappointment and Diaz.. is just… infuriating

    I’ll take his bat over Dubon’s personally. I like him in the infield with Walker, Correa and Pena- that’s the best infield defense in baseball.

    Yes Diaz and Walker are frustrating, but both have overall been solid the last 7 weeks. Walker strikes out a lot and Diaz has zero game plan.. but then I remember who we had before Diaz and he seems like Mike Piazza with the stick.
