    No. The AL West sucking and the Mariners blowing a ten game lead has saved us.

    Even throwing to first would have been a better decision than that

    Why did Abreu stay in the game for so long to give up that slam? Wtf?

    Still perplexed going to 3rd instead of the double play. In what world does that make sense. DId he think an out was already recorded? Hoping to hear the post game interview

    Nah, he’s got a 1.86 ERA with 0 days rest. He just flat out sucks every time he has more than 2 days off, but at the same time, he’s been used to damn much. He has to get some breaks so there’s really nothing you can do. You almost have to just have Hader or someone warming up pretty much any time Abreu comes in when he’s been given time off.

    Honestly, I think he was just so shocked he actually caught it, saw the guy coming down the line and spazzed out. Whitcomb was also shifted with a LH batter so it took him too long to get to 3B otherwise he does get the out there.

    Hiw does a manager allow 5 runs from a reliever in the 8th without a pitching change?

    Yeah that was less than great. Having said that it’s 1 of 162. And we’re in first place. Get em tomorrow.
