Some thoughts on this game.
*Obviously Luke Weaver was huge. But that also prevented Carson Benge from becoming Luis Castillo. Good kid. I’m glad he can laugh about it.
*Bichette and Semien are so so bad. And they lead the team in PAs. You have to let Bichette try to find it. But do we have to run Semien out there every day? Maybe we call up Morabito and let Ewing play some 2B
*I don’t understand the logic in leaving Raley in to face Judge and Goldschmidt. We got the win, but that means both Weaver and Raley pitched 2 innings each. Such a dumb decision.
*That ninth inning is a lot different if it starts with a leadoff walk. Bellinger swung at 2 pitches out of the zone, including the payoff pitch. It’s not just our guys who make dumb decisions.
*I don’t know how we didn’t turn two on that soft liner to Bichette. He’s just not a SS.
