!Vamos!

Ok, Myles Straw would be as unpredictable as Miguel Rojas.

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

Give me a Vlad Jr walkoff, or give me death.

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

Venezuelan infield in Clinic the last 2 innings.

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

Bullshit. He’s watching Newsmax.

Blake Treinen in the bullpen watching a six-hour YouTube video about chemtrails and who REALLY profits from weather modification on his phone. This is part of his process. He can't give up three straight doubles unless he's in the right mindset.

I only want this to end 1 of 2 ways:

Vlad Jr walkoff

Or

Kershaw save

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

Never at Fenway.

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

I’m stupefied.

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

How bad is the Dodgers bench for Rojas to be batting in this situation? Kim has to be a better option. The rest, I see your point.

Home plate umpire evidently wasn’t as interested in seeing Vlad bat with 2 guys in as I was.

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

Clement may have just bought Vlad another AB. Need 1 more base runner.

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

The Muncy HR guarantees Ohtani another AB.

Jays need insurance runs. Probably have Hoffman start the inning with Fluharty ready to face Ohtani. Or just pitch around him and save Fluharty in case it gets to Freeman.

Olerud

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

Vlad has been one of my favorite players for a long time. Drafted him in fantasy as a 17yo in Bluefield Class A and protected him every year.

I cannot believe how good he is defensively. Never saw it coming. Maybe I just only watched him hit, but he has become an elite defensive first baseman.

Random observation: Chris Bassitt’s head size makes the bill of his cap seem miniature.

That noggin must be Bochyesque.

Cilian Murphy, Tyler Glasnow and Joey Flacco all separated at birth.

How hilarious would it have been if the benches cleared while Rosenthal was interviewing Schneider.

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

He should have been taken out after the Smith double. Everything has been hard hit. Lots of warning track flies. Only strike outs were Muncy and ROJAS.

there is zero reason for Scherzer to start the next inning

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

Bailed out by his defense twice. Extremely lucky not to have given up a couple (or more) homers.

He has to be done, right? Right, John Schneider? Right?

Travis Hubbard @trhubbs.bsky.social · 1d

Why is Scherzer still in there to allow frozen ropes?

Smoltz: “he’s gotta pitch above the barrel or below it.”

Yeah that’s kinda the goal
