It is concerning to look at 5-9 in this lineup. Moreland’s got the best numbers, but trending wrong. The rest... ugh. I like Kinsler, but he is not hitting this season. Kinsler, Bradley, and Leon give great middle defense, but it better save a hell of a lot of runs because those two plus non-Devers at third? Rough.

I've never liked Melky Cabrera was he just jawing at Sandy ? What was that about ?

It may not be the worst thing for this team to catch a stiff left hook to the kisser before October.

Some tough luck on batted balls tonight. Moreland smoked that.

I’m at the point when I’m ready to say Thornburg isn’t happening this year. Outlet surgery is risky, and the recovery is long. He might need more time... but not in crunch time in the season. His stuff impresses me less than anyone in the pen (except maybe Pom this year).

this is the worst string of Mookie at bats I can remember since last year...lots of weak contact on the ground

The team hasn't had a gut check time in quite awhile. Tito has a quality team and they play with confidence. Maybe the games are in our guys' heads a bit. Well, two down, two to go, historic season, big lead.
Nothing much has changed, except the team has a need to refocus and get back to it. Cora gets a chance to manage and inspire the young team through this.

Shine coming off Eovaldi. Seems like he gives up a huge number of hits every outing. Looks like a one inning type for the playoffs.

Loaded, none out, bottom 11. Just one run, Marlins! That's all you need...
