BREAKING: Xander has finally passed Story in RBI’s with tonight’s explosion. But can he keep it up? That is the question.

Wacha really does seem to the way to reduce the drama this season. Seeing Whitlock warming up helps as well. Way too few games like this during the season.

100 more hits and he’ll convince me. In other news, Connor Wong has 9 HRs in August… Wong has been white hot. I hope he is one of the call ups.

Do you trust him for ~$20m? He’s not exactly dependable. Eovaldi, same question....

Plus, he’s earned it. They need to see what they have there. Is he the starter next year?? He should get a good look. I imagine Plawecki will play very little in September.

Thought I'd look at the box since I just tuned in - this is the Xander show - we are 2 for 13 RISP, 13Ks, including 4 for Bobbie D.
So this could easily be a heartbreak loss if not for X

So this could easily be a heartbreak loss if not for X Heartbreak loss? We're still in the 7th, 1/3 of the game left for that. I think by now losses are numb we don't feel it.

I think August has convinced us to be on Team Tank. Root for individual performances but if the team loses it’s just more of the same 2022 crap

I'm assuming Schreiber in the bottom of the ninth?
