    Its hard to sweep so if we don't come back I won't be too upset. We will have gotten 2 of 3 from our only threat in the ALW.

    Has to get on top of the slider so it doesn't flatten out, has to put a FB on the corner every 7th pitch, and that's it.

    Correa would be the best player in baseball if he didn’t take these mental breaks.

    Looking at pitches right down middle, errors, etc. it’s not a knock on him lol. It’s hard to be great all the time. Baseball is 90% mental.
