  1. The four teams in front of us for the wildcard spot (#6), all have negative run differential. We have positive 18 run differential and sits in #11 spot in AL. Jays are the only team with a negative run differential that is in the playoff if the season ended last night.
  2. Only 40 pitches after 3 innings. Good job by Buehler. Only 51 pitches after 4 innings. Nice job by Buehler. I hate walks....
  3. Meaningless stat....but I like it. Team Record when he starts 8-6 Crochet 5-3 Dobbins 5-5 Bello 5-3 Giolito 6-4 Buehler 29-21 4-15 Others (Houck 2-7, Fitts 0-5, Newcomb 2-3) 33-36 Total Big part is we always start the year with injuries. Tampa Bay Starters, 14-13-13-13-13. Only 5 pitchers have started.
  4. Youngest to the oldest, position players. (Age as of 9/30/25..end of regular season) 21 Anthony-(7 yrs of team control) 22 Mayer---(7 yrs of team control) 23 Campbell-(6 years of team control) 25 Rafaela-(7 yrs of team control) 25 Casas-(4 yrs of team control) 26 Abreu-(5 yrs of team control)-next guy we should extend. 26 Narvaez-(6 yrs of team control) 28 Devers-(9 yrs of team control) 29 Duran-(4 yrs of team control) We have the guys that I want on our roster (Anthony was the sealer). I am good with this group. Brez can add and subtract as he sees fit. Got to work on starting pitchers next. Add Bregman and this group can be solid. Really too bad that Casas got hurt. But 1B seems to be in capable hands with Toro (28) and Gonzalez (28).
  5. First of all, good job by Whitlock. I don't care that he gets hit. I just care that he doesn't walk anyone. I despise walks, especially 7-8-9 hitters. Have we ever have legit 4 rookies in the line up this early in the season?
  6. So you are a major league shortstop making $21M a year and you don't know the infield fly rule? Okay.
  7. He has the lowest walk rate per 9 innings on our staff. He challenges the hitters. He'll give up home runs because he will make mistakes in the strike zone. Just think about his pitch count of 64 over 5 innings. I rather watch him pitch over Bello any time. So sick and tired of major leaguers that can't throw strikes. Nothing irks me more than watching Bello get ahead in the count 0-2 then go to 3-2 count. No wonder he has trouble getting through the fourth inning. It's a miracle when he's not over 80 pitches after 5 innings.
  8. Thanks for that observation. He did not walk a batter in 5 innings. His pitch count was relatively low. If you can"t throw strikes, you are not a major league pitcher. I am impressed.
  9. We just gave up 9 9 7 7 runs yet won 3 out of 4. Offense can't keep this up. Pitching has to get better.
  10. How about Whit getting one out. He'll need couple of days iff now.
  11. What a freaking' joke...3 walks and a homer Where do we find these guys?
  12. Another fine outing by Whitlick. A hit and bases loaded walk. What a disappointment. He sucks.
  13. Cora understands the excitement surrounding Anthony. “I think every market goes through this, right?” Cora said. “I think Kansas City (with No. 19 prospect Jac Caglianone) went through it, right, the last two months or whatever it was. I bet there’s other teams that have good players in the minor leagues and their fan base and people are gonna talk about it. So that’s part of the job.” No other team has a #1 prospect Alex. Hell, it's not up to him. He has no idea when the call up is coming. Why doesn't he just say it's not up to me?
  14. Ok, I'll admit. It's nice having Toro right now. He can play both corner positions and he's a switch hitter. We go lefty lefty, then 7 righties. Great to have options.
  15. I'm looking forward to watching Dobbins. The team is 4-3 in games started by Dobbins. Here's our current rotation. 8-6 The Wheel (yesterday made up for all of his losses in no run support) 5-4 The Opener 4-3 140 Innings or Bust 6-4 Ferris
  16. Did anyone see the video of Narvaez point of view on the ball hit to the right side for a single? Campbell was frozen. He DID NOT take a false step towards second base. He froze and allowed the ball to go through the infield. I am glad he's with us. I'm glad that he was extended. But, he has been horrendous since April. He can't get the ball in flight. His second hit barely got airborne. Something is amiss. Send him back to AAA and let him work it out. Get his confidence back. If he's not mentally tough to handle that then the entire organization misread him.
  17. I'm not in favor of firing anyone. Brez did take actions during off season. It's easier to build a team around Crochet, who will be with us for 6 more years beginning in 2026. But I'm showing my displeasure with the Anthony situation. What's the hold up? You can't continue with the daily dose of he'll be up at some point.
  18. Thanks for noticing that.....that's at least twice he's done that this week. Keep the single hitter off second base. Geez I told my 12 year olds that 30 years ago.
  19. 97 pitches thrown by 3 relievers last night, thanks to Buehler. Luckily Crochet if going. It would be nice to see him go 8, then close out with Chapman.
  20. Well Cora is managing with one hand tied behind his back, courtesy of Breslow.
  21. Quit avoiding the inevitable......Mayer is our future at short, not Story. Hell move him to short. He is just so fragile, he can break any minute playing short. We got a big retrieve by acquiring Carlos Narvaez to replace Teel. Now it appears we need a replacement for Wong.
