    Tuned out too soon. Maybe this is the end of the slump. Great comeback.

    Wow. I know he's been raking, but that's legit. I was about to say he's going to be a 20 HR / 40 2B guy soon, but then looked up, and he's on pace for 19 and 41 this year.

    He posted a 1.021 OPS in July, and off to an even better start in August.

    Thought Richard Justice wrote that no-big trade on the deadline was a-ok ...

    and

    Martes was allowed to pitch in both the 8th and 9th innings

    I have been all day (re-watching season 6). Interesting, the last thing I knew, we were down 3 in the 9th. I watch Jon Snow arise from the dead, tune to Clutchfans, and find out we won! That red lady is something special all right :D

    Was mainly about the @Bags4HOF campaign he ran on Twitter... but he did comment about some of the over-reaction regarding the lack of deadline moves.

    TBH, he came across much better on radio than the hosts (who I know aren't radio guys... but you still have to sound somewhat competent on the air to host live radio).

    Good job @Hey Now!. I'll support your endeavor to form a CF podcast.

    Looks the broadcast didn't include today's game. They should've asked @Hey Now!

    I said this earlier in the season after that first Tigers series and everyone trashed me for it. The dude has like a .900 batting average at MMP and a high defensive IQ. Why not?

    Cenento did what McCann couldn't do yesterday, come up with the big RBI. McCann really struggling at the plate lately.

    Great win and one we REALLY needed to resurrect some mo! Bregman's triple was huge and the young catcher certainly performs on the big stage.
