    But what about this bullpen and all the close games we are going to incur?

    I mentioned it a few weeks ago, but he really needs to perfect his "bunt for base hit" game. He can turn singles into doubles, score from 2B, etc...

    He bunts 100 times, gets on base, what, 40 of them?

    Given his defensive ability, that's good player

    I like how Rodriguez bunnyhopped the throw before he caught the ball and still threw a bouncer 8 feet wide of the plate.

    IMO the situational hitting is a bigger issue than the bullpen

    Earlier in the year we led the majors with 2 out hitting and RISP.......we have fallen off a cliff.

    We need to do some sort of computer simulation of the 1998 vs 2019 Astros

    lol Mariners fans are pissed that Munoz didn't get a couple of pitches called for a strike that got like 1 millimeter of the zone. They haven't won a road series since July 13th, more than 2 months. Their wins have been coming at home where their pitchers are gifted the most generous strikezone in the league.

    Ehh it's late. 1.5 months then. The point is it's a long period of time.

    Meyers played tonight.

    No hits going 0/3 and being replaced at some point but its good to see Jake with another rehab start.

    Return for the Yankees?
