    As much as I dislike Dusty Baker from his time with the Cubs, he has done what I didn't think he was capable of. He has adapted his managing style and removed any doubt as to whether he is a Hall of Famer. It helps to be managing a great team, but Dusty still deserves some credit.

    Hindsight 20/20 obviously, but they should have stuck with Wheeler there. He may have been fading a bit, but I'd still take his stuff over anyone in the Phillies pen.

    I'm not a big fan of watching a guy who can't hit hang his padded elbow over the plate to get on base.

    Where did you see that the shoulder injury requires surgery?

    Bleachers were available in a nights & weekend package but I believe that was it. Everything else full season in the past. I believe that changed a few years ago. A buddy of mine got nights and weekend seats prior to the 2021 season.

    Looks like bad video game AI.

    Can someone at least beat them ONCE?

    They must really be hemorrhaging Season Ticket holders to reduce prices by 5%. I wonder what the waiting list looks like now? I would guess there is a huge amount of churn with waitlisters buying tickets and then not renewing for a 2nd season after they realize how difficult the resale market is.

    I can't take anymore of The Cube. What is going on with this game?
  10. Irrelevant Dude
    Dodgers and Padres are underway. Which game finishes first?
  11. Irrelevant Dude
    You know somewhere there is a Yankees fan who was DVR'ing the game on TBS and looking forward to watching it after work, only to come home and find that he recorded nothing but Houston/Seattle.

    Fields put the ball in two receivers hands in the end zone. Guys just can't make a play.
  13. Irrelevant Dude
    Great series by Smith-Marsette. First the fall on your face run, then letting the pass hit him in the helmet.
  14. Irrelevant Dude
    Left Tackle is a BIG problem.
  15. Irrelevant Dude
    That's rather shocking. I'm happy to see the team winning games, and the defense is really good, but it still doesn't feel like there's any way they are one of the best 25 teams. But let's win a few more games and go to a semi-respectable bowl game for a change!

    Somewhere Ron Santo is smiling (and drinking a beer).
  17. Irrelevant Dude
    A-Rod: "You cannot make the first out at second base!" Uhh... When did that become a thing?
  18. Irrelevant Dude
    Holy hell is Molina slow. I mean, I knew he was slow, but he just got thrown out by two steps on a play that I assumed had absolutely no chance to get the out at first.

    And that's why the extra innings runner is stupid. [emoji846] Instead of a team winning with a sacrifice bunt and routine fly ball out in the 10th, we get a walk off home run.
  20. Irrelevant Dude
    My stance on the extra innings runner has already been stated multiple times, but I will say it is really strange to suddenly play under different rules during the postseason. If the extra innings runner is how baseball is going to be played now, then it should probably apply in the postseason too. But I will hate it until the day I die. I still hope that MLB will eventually go back to the old rules for regular season games too, but that hope is fading.

    A crisp 2 hour, 17 minute game. Also, this Phillies team sucks.
  22. Irrelevant Dude
    And at the plate. Hopefully it's just a matter of needing more reps, but right now he certainly doesn't look like someone who will be in the conversation for a Major League spot early next season.
  23. Irrelevant Dude
    It doesn't seem like there is much reason to keep Wesneski in Iowa. He should probably be the #5 starter going into next season, or at the very least a long reliever / spot starter until a consistent spot opens up.
  24. Irrelevant Dude
    What do you do with Sampson? It sucks to have him holding a 40 man spot in the offseason, but how can they let him go at this point?
  25. Irrelevant Dude
    Has anyone seen any reason to think Velazquez can potentially be a useful Major League piece? Almost 200 at bats in, I definitely haven't been impressed.
