I do not like the Hector Neris closing experience.

Nice :sweep:, means that while the Cubs dropped 2 to the dogshit Marlins they still ended up 5-2 for this home stretch which is quite good.

2 for 15 with RISP and one of those hits didn't score a run.

A win's a win, though

Nobody throws away a win like this Padres team. Same poo poo as last year. Dunno if it’s the relievers or just a general loser mentality.

Bases loaded no outs no runs in the first and now giving up homeruns to bums

Good thing the draft is on tonight I can get mad about that instead of baseball

maybe the league will give your boys some special balls, or allow them to do some cheating again. stay positive!

edit: A's are putting it together way better than anyone expected, but I'm sure Yankees fans can explain how actually the Yankees just underperformed in the most monumental fashion in the history of baseball or some other bullshit. gently caress the Yankees

We even just did a four game sweep! Really turning around from the bad season start.

Who'd we sweep? Oh that's really not important.

I know Nestor gave up three runs in a rough inning. But he pitched seven, which is one more than required for a quality start.

Which as a reminder, is six innings or more while surrendering three or less runs.

I cannot find the stat, but the Yankees have a really bad history of DeGrom'ing Nestor with awful run support.

I watched that whole game and was baffled. I think they got the bases loaded twice with one out, then immediately found a way to blow it.

All that said, Mason Miller might be the filthiest closer doing it right now.

Good morning. I hope you had a good day while I was gone yesterday. There was also something about new football players last night, but that’s not important right now other than the memes.
