    In all fairness, what can you do when the pope is against you.

    - A win without Espada
    - Framber bounces back after a few bad starts (no, I don't care if against the worst team)
    - Yordan and Cam homer - arguably the two players that needed it the most
    - Abreu rest. My bad, he pitched with a 4 run lead

    that has already pretty much been disproven based on his injury history in the past. Aging doesn't bode well for future injuries either.

    If I scroll far enough I tend to get the YTG info post I need. No additional window needed.

    Best wishes to Espada on a speedy recovery, but Omar Lopez is undefeated as manager this season.

    Royals are a real concern, they hold the tiebreaker against us but it's fluid. They have a 22-20 in division record, we are currently 16-17. So we may end up getting that tiebreaker in the end.

    GMs typically don’t trade generational HOF potential players on what ifs……

    Can we just get everybody to wear that suit of armor Ohtani wears at the plate?

    The hand injuries are tiring.

    It is so important Yordan is back.

    We need some damn slugging in the middle of the lineup. Pena is the only guy in the lineup slugging well this season and he leads off. The Mariners have their top 6 batters slugging over .450. The Astros only have Pena, and most are struggling to crack .400.

    Stros need a presence.

    Doesn't fix the pitching but it perks up everything around him. really hoping he can maintain his health.

    Fantastic to see a good outing from Framber.. spared our pen as well.

    Also fantastic to see Cam and Yordan go yard. The two players you would have most wanted too.

    Man, a season with Yordan and Issac will really do wonders for this lineup. Too many dudes that are allergic to taking pitches and walks. Just seems like a poorly coached hitting team

    Would be cool if Melton could blast 36 hr’s out of the 9 spot

    Meyers went 1-4 tonight in AAA and played CF.

    Shouldn’t be long.

    Are you suggesting that Meyers will hit 36 hr’s out of the 9 spot?
