    What a **** show this series has been. Enough to ask whether we should really be buyers or sellers at the deadline

    Seems like the Titanic if they don't get help very soon. This is a AAA team with a AAA manager right now. Not good. The magic appears gone.

    ...seriously? Having a division leader sell when the main issue is injuries with at least 4 players returning within 2 weeks?

    Neris was fine in the pocket he had.
    Seems like we're always trying to get an extra out from a reliever.
    Unsure why okert was up if they didn't use him for a leftie.

    What's the chance we don't field our best batters in the lineup tomorrow?

    Tonight, 2 of them were missing. In a game we needed very badly.

    Pinch hitting for Chas at any opportunity is Dusty-esque.

    Shouldn't Brice get as much at bats as possible...?

    Incredibly embarrassing. Certainly a low point of the season.

    Unfortunately Joe doesn't tier his relievers, they are all Abreu in his mind.

    Even your dumbass knows that Caratini and Trammell needs to be in the lineup everyday. Certainly.

    I know Crane is still going to be fiscally sound… but its amazing where the money on this team is going right now with a top 10 payroll…

    Chas is making 3 million
    Dubón is making 5 million (at least he’s staying healthy…. Or they’d have to forfeit)
    Walker
    Abreu dead money
    Montero dead money
    Javier (injured money)
    Yordan (injured money)
    LMJ (post-game speech money)

    Altuve (in perpetuity)
    Hader
