Is Sawamura their third best reliever now? That's a scary thought.

This ump wants you to throw into the other batters box

I'm hoping they can find another team for Barnes this offseason. it'll be tough at 7.25 mill....might have to eat some of the contract. Maybe a bad contract for bad contract situation? Maybe Bloom can use some of that creativity he has.

Matt Carpenter broke a bone in his foot last night and might be out 2 months, or so. Yankees really starting to get hit with injuries now. One of NYM, LAD or Atl win be WS champs. Fully functioning DeGromme and Schertzer will be a tough out in the playoffs.

The Barnes contract might be the worst decision Bloom has made, and that is saying something. There isn't any way to rehabilitate that guy. He is afraid to pitch to any kind of contact, which is probably understandable. Come on, now. Barnes’s entire contract is what Sale makes in a few months. He’s hardly killing a team with a $220m payroll. Bloom’s worst move was trading Renfroe for JBJ, btw.

Don't see how they offer JD a QO at this point.

Check Barnes stats this year....it's about as bad as it can get for a guy who has thrown 18 innings.

I’m a Bloom guy but my biggest complaint is they don’t cycle through these relievers fast enough. You’ve got the depth if you lose a guy you don’t want to lose, let’s see what some of these guys can do

I give Duran credit. I’d have likely sat him today, but Cora played him and he has responded with really good at bats. He’s kept it together when he could have gone down the pipes.

Duran’s noodle arm costs them again
Also that was an outrageous at bat by Dansby Swanson, he’s gonna look good at SS next year

Bloom’s worst move was trading Renfroe for JBJ, btw. bro.....Sale isn't his contract. Can you please elaborate on this statement? Because I just looked up the word “useless” in the dictionary and there was a picture of Chris Sale there.

the shines is off Whitlock. He gives up too many tying runs or go ahead.
