really impressed with our offense tonight. They could have packed it up after the second inning, but instead they kept plugging away,

Rookie mistake.
He'll learn.

Brasier got some token saves early in the year, but man he allows so much ball to be hit 95-100MPH.

Man, Brasier is a bucket of mediocre.

And now back to a save situation. And here I though my quibble with 5-16 RISP was being piggy.

Just a microcosm of Devers defensively. 2 great plays, 2 really bad plays all in the same game. He has been solid lately though.

That you even have to tap the back end of the pen in a game you led 5-1 then 10-4 is a big disappointment.

It's a joke that Barnes has to pitch here.

The best way for a team with weak hitting to heal is to face our pitching staff. Toronto's offense is NOT this good.

He's had 2 months of great defense. 1 month of bad defense. 14 errors total, which would could very well be 25+ by the end of the year. Still too many.

This bullpen is so bad. They had a 6 run lead to protect and the tying run came to the plate in the 8th inning.

this is unreal. screw this bullpen; there are so many guys in it i wouldn't miss if they were DFA'd today, and Brasier is right at the top.

And we've not scored since the third inning. When we look back on this season - no matter what happens - the word "weird" will feature prominently. It's like pieces show up then quickly vanish. Consistency is a real challenge with this bunch this year.

Other teams would get fat, dumb & happy against our pitching. I remember a guy named Gene Freese who hit about .500 against us one year.....

The only pen pitcher I actually enjoy watching pitch and feel good about is now pitching. His evolution to his current level of effectiveness has been really cool to observe.

Annoying and frustrating at times but a win is a win I’ll take it!

hey it's a win, but we burn out all our good pen arms because the low leverage guys can't even manage gigantic leads. been a huge problem.
