Does anyone feel confident with Hader as our closer going to the playoffs? I sure as hell don’t. 

Yes.

There was no reason to bring him into this game though.

You should. He's one of the best closers in baseball.

Fuck man, I don't want to play the Royals. 

You'd rather play the Tigers right now?

Why? They are leaking oil at an amazing rate. They are lucky the Twins leaked oil, gas, have 4 flats, and lost their key to the ignition.

What a year for Blanco.  2.8 ERA, WHIP under 1.1

Just awesome.

Not bad for not making the team until the last day of spring training 

 

not gonna lie, as he got in to the 5th, was really hoping he was going to bookend the season with no-no’s.

I have no problem with it ( other than the risk of a wet mound/ball after what happened to Pressly in Boston earlier this year). 

They brought him in to give him 3 days off and have him fully rested in case he has to pitch 3 straight Tue-Thu. 
Same with Abreu. 
Their regular season is over.

Yeah I guess that's fair.  I was thinking you give him his last tune up tomorrow.  3 days off feels a little long.

More Mariners schadenfruede:

the Royals went 12-1 vs the White Sox.

tigers are currently 10-1 vs the White Sox.

mariners 6-1 vs the White Sox. WC race probably looks a lot difference if they get another 6 games vs that garbage.

The Mariners got A's & Angels games that is at best a wash

It does. But if he gets rusty after 3 days off, we have bigger issues. So far this year, he’s been fine with that much of a break.

He’s had 13 appearances this season after 3 or more days rest and a 2.40 ERA in those appearances…but most of that ERA comes from early in the year when he was not good.

Since June 14, he’s had 8 appearances on 3 or more days rest and has only given up 1 run ( a 9th inning home run against the D-Backs on that 9/8 Sunday night game that JV shit the bed and we were down 11-5 and he was only in because he hadn’t pitched in 8 days).

Waiting for my kid’s practice to end, overheard two dudes debating if Verlander should be the #1 or #2 starter during the playoffs.

I hope you went Walter on them.

help me process what no Yordan in the field in the playoffs means because I can’t imagine he does anything other than DH if we’re lucky to get that.

that first base defense will be even more white knuckling than it already is? Singleton is pretty much relegated to PH duty?

caratini at 1B when Diaz catches and vice versa with the occasional Dezenzo start. 
 

Meyers in CF  just about every game with the occasional Dubon start. Heyward in left and we hope he finds the fountain of youth and/or that Chas rises from the dead and  miraculously finds 2022 postseason form?

Espada making decisions in the playoffs is going to be hilarious, he's just a fucking idiot. Any success this team is had is doing it in spite of his game in and game out stupidity.
