Caleb Durbin had 2.6 WAR?!?!? I’m moving to Milwaukee
Ben Clemens
8:29
it would probably improve all of our careers
Joe
8:30
Ben, I love that
Mook
8:30
I was vocally dragging Cora for attempting to galaxy brain starting Sogard lol
Zach

It's not Boone's fault that his guys can't hit Crochet
Sonny
8:30
Aaron Boone is a personality hire. You can’t fire him without acknowledging your own shortcomings
Davy Andrews
8:30
Alright, here we go. Crochet in for the eighth, Whitlock warming up.

The 2025 Brewers are proof that the Miller cave water actually has the restorative powers Topo Chico claims

Story of the postseason so far: good pitchers are in fact good!
Ben Clemens
8:31
Told that one to my wife, who's from Milwaukee, and she laughed out loud
Commenting makes me anxious
8:31
See Caballero on the Yankees is still so weird to me after his Gerrit Cole finger-wag incident
Davy Andrews
8:31
Publishing this just because I didn't want to leave someone with that username hanging.
Mook

Love leaving in crochet for LHP here

Good or bad idea to keep crochet out there? Mortgaging his future? Are they relying on his short history to mean he has a healthier arm?
Davy Andrews
8:32
I mean, we'll find out eventually, but this is why they got him and extended him, and this is who he wants to be. And he's still dealing.
Ben Clemens
8:33
I don't think that 10 pitches today can mortgage his future, or un-mortgage it in reverse.
Guest

Year of the lefty ace?
Davy Andrews
8:32
I love that.
Davy Andrews

Another Volpedo.
RTJ

there can't be any signal to significant noise in the guy who throws slightly more pitches one game and their risk of injury or anything
Bencle Mens

The Italian Fox strikes again
Ben Clemens
8:34
Where were you when we were giving away the nickname things?
Guest

How did this turn into an Aaron Boone discussion? He brought in one setup guy who gave up both runs in three batters. There's not much story unless you think it's actually controversial to take Fried out, and he seemed to lose several MPH in the previous inning.
Ben Clemens
8:34
Yeah I don't mind that ove
move*
I do like that Cora is pinch hitting, but like... the Red Sox still have their starter in. The Yankees just played their best hitters against him in the first place
Mook
8:35
99 on pitch 111
Davy Andrews

Volpe with the attempt on the big vault lead that the Yankees (and Mets) love.
Ben Clemens
8:36
that base was stolen, imo
RTJ
8:36
Things I hate when watching baseball on tv: when the crowd boos after the pitcher throws to first. Things I love doing when attending a game in-person: booing the opposing pitcher when they throw to first
Ben Clemens
8:36
oh wow, I couldn't agree more
Guest
8:37
surely the last batter here?
Ben Clemens
8:37
lol what in the world was Wells doing there?
Davy Andrews
8:37
Wow. Ice cold from Crochet.
Guest
8:37
its like how home fans cheer when their manager gets ejected, and home fans cheer when the visiting manager gets ejected
Davy Andrews
8:38
Ok, we've waited long enough:
J

Wow what a terrible move to leave Crochet in (please don't post this unless the Yankees score here)
Dirt
8:38
The pitching today has been insane. Let’s hope Greene keeps it going
Guest
8:38
crochet and skubal, man
RTJ
8:38
hats off to crochet
