Disappointing for a variety of reasons:
1. JV was flat out bad. 2. We had some bad luck on some really well hit balls. 3. Our offensive stars all stunk outside of Yordan's double, including our best postseason player in Altuve. 4. We used two of our best pitchers out of the bullpen to do nothing but preserve a loss.

Someone explain to me why a starter like Javier was used out of the bullpen.

Six of our 22 outs thus far were hit 95mph or better...

Obviously thinking ahead already. If we can split, we are probably going to face Paxton in Seattle and we have had no issues with him. Just hoping we can win Thursday and take the first game in Seattle.

Verlander has a 4.61 ERA in his last TEN postseason starts now. Ya'll still think we need to pay him $40+ million per year this off-season? This series should determine the need for him. As deep as they are now, they might have to reallocate funds elsewhere. That’ll be up to a new GM if the Mariners win this round. Pretty much my thought. Our pitching is deep enough that we can win the division without JV. If due to age or whatever else JV can't show up in October then it makes no sense to pay him 20% of the entire payroll just for regular-season greatness. We could go get a very legit 1B and several good relievers with that kind of money instead.

JV exploding and Yuli leading the offensive charge, just as expected LOL

If our pitching could have just been average...

We should collect funds to get Trey a ticket out of here.

On the plus side, if this offense can score 5+ runs in the remaining games, we almost certainly win this series.

We should collect funds to get Trey a ticket out of here. Let Hensley play in lieu of Mancini. At least Hensely gives us contact skills. Mancini is a strikeout/GDIP machine right now.

They won't do it, but yeah. Hensley gets on base and has been hot.

Well, guess they wouldn't bring in Ray if they were going to walk him. LET'S GO.
