He's one of the guys that would keep them out of the lineup if they were on the team.

I’m ready to make Baty the everyday second baseman and nail Semien to the bench

Understood.  I imagine the Mets aren't there, though.

[Edgy MD]

Amazingly, Elder has outlasted Scott.

[Edgy MD]

All year: Benge, Bichette, McLean, Manaea, Torrens and ...

[Edgy MD]

... Baty.

[Edgy MD]

Pintaro is homesick for Syracuse.

[Frayed Knot]

Just like the bad old days: just shy of two hours to get through 5 innings.

[Edgy MD]

I liked Brent Suter better when he played ice hockey.

[MFS62]

I don’t have a good feeling about this one.

The Lavendar Hammer

[Edgy MD]

Nate Lavender 1 2 3.

Working on a career-long no-hitter.

[Edgy MD]

Trying to squeeze two innings out of Lavender was questionable.

He's just a man.

[Edgy MD]

Pa-CHE earning his mo-NE.

[Edgy MD]

Well anyone who had Pintaro, Lavender, or Duarte for Closer of the Day is out of the competition.

Senga supporters, however, are still alive.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Alvy not only embarrasses himself but wastes all that time to confirm it

[Centerfield]

Swing the bat AJ. Too many backwards Ks. 

[Lefty Specialist]

Well, at least we're got Weaver Brazoban Raley Minter to pitch the 8th....oh,wait

[Edgy MD]

This gorgeous offense of the first three innings has sure packed it in early, asking the mystery bullpen to do some heavy lifting.

[Edgy MD]

Some Alvidemption there.

Some.

[Edgy MD]

I think our real bullpen is our outfield tonight.

[Lefty Specialist]

Hanging on by their fingernails.

[Edgy MD]

"When you're ahead in the late innings, the offense needs to be cognizant of not losing the ABS challenges, so the pitchers have it when the need it."
 

— Ronnie Darling, talking some sense

[Centerfield]

Also said Young should have taken a pitch. I agree. 

[Centerfield]

Semien also first pitch swinging. Ridiculous. 

[Lefty Specialist]

Senga on for the save. I be nervous. That extra run was nice, however.

[Edgy MD]

His first fastball could not have adhered more loyally to the middle of the plate, but Olson missed it.

[Frayed Knot]

Senga needs to stick with the two Gs: Gas and the Ghost

[Frayed Knot]

Gotta say that the three run lead feels miles better than just two.

[Edgy MD]

Who doesn't love Forky?

[Lefty Specialist]

Jeez, throw strikes.  One run can't beat you.
