31-24
Keep this chain of great starting pitching going! Although if there is a weak link, I think it's Odorizzi right now. Hopefully that's not the case today.
Who gets the day off today? Correa or Bregman?

Correa or Bregman? Since we are going for a sweep today, we can count on Dusty to make a dumb move with the lineup and cost us the game. If he follows what he normally does, he will decide Tucker needs a rest.....I would agree with giving Bregman a day off and playing Diaz at third base. I won't be surprised if Stubbs catches Odorizzi instead of Maldonado. |

He just proved he is a damn fool by "resting" Tucker and Correa at the same time. What a f***ing moron!!! |

Tucker has 8 hits in his last three games right? I can't believe we would bench somebody in a hot streak like that. Wow. He's only 24yo...

I wish I could say I'm surprised, but, he has put horse shit lineups on the field whenever we have a chance at a series sweep. Winning today's game would guarantee us the home field in the playoffs against the Red Sox if a tie-breaker is necessary. This stupid SOB keeps proving he should be fired. He benches our hottest hitter and keeps Bregman, who looks terrible, in the lineup. Bregman is the guy who needed the day off. Benching guys who are hitting is just plain stupid. |

I’m convinced that Dusty is anti-sweep. He always has some stupidass lineup out at the ends of series that they’re winning. Oftentimes, these final games have junior varsity lineups.

Correa and Tucker are sitting today. It should be Correa and Bregman. Definitely Bregman. I don't see resting both of them unless we use Garcia again and I can't stand the thought of that. |

As soon as we won the game last night, I thought Dusty would pull a dumb stunt like this. Resting your hottest hitter and run producer shows he is totally incompetent. We have a chance to go on this road trip on a roll and he pulls the same dumb shit again. The players are smart enough to know that Dusty doesn't know what the hell he is doing. They won't, but, veterans like Altuve and Correa should go to Crane and ask him to get rid of the old fool before he destroys our chances of winning another championship. |

Like paastro mentioned recently, players are babified now with their off-days scheduled well in advance by most clubs. Knowing they're gonna sit the next day, it's not uncommon for ballplayers to give an all-out effort the game before

Diaz is a really good utility player. I still stand by this but that was a boneheaded move, which seems to plague this team as a whole. |

Diaz just had a brain fart and tried to go to third with Yordan at the plate so we know who takes the lead for DUMBASS OF THE GAME. There is NO excuse for major league players doing shit like that on the bases.  |

Well they had basically given up on this game anyways. Take out Altuve and Bregman too.

I'm sure it's because the final games are often the days before travelling days and/or days off. So? Trying to maximize their time off. I don't like it either. |
