So what. His start is the only game we have won so far. Rather have him pitch than tonight's pitcher. 

Yep, Eovaldi was great against the Yankees as well.  We do ok against Sale.  We usually hit decent enough against Porcello but find ways to lose against him.  Need to change that.

Pitching issues on Hinch tonight for getting too cute. 

But we gotta score to win. Our hitters were passive as hell. Too many hitter favorable counts they let get away from them by not being aggressive.  All. Night. Long.  

Yep and I think Osuna gets out of that if we are tied or have a 1 run lead. Pitching while knowing your team cant hit is more stressful.

Hinch didn’t cause Maldonado to let pitches get by him or pitchers to hit batters or throw balls in the dirt or throw over the first basemen’s head. 

Smith was a questionable decision  

 

Smith was a terrible decision. But Im not sure how you can divide up blame when we only score 2.  Keuchel could have held them scoreless and we still lose. And if we cant hit when down 6, its unlikely we would have when down 1 or tied, so you cant really blame Osuna alone either. They were gonna score 3 against any combo of pitchers that dont start with JV. We simply have to hit better than that.

Apparently the morons have taken over the thread this evening.  The fact that one person said it and that three people back it up just bottles the mind.  

I don't know why i thought winning it all last year would eliminate the stupidity.

Well, see, Cora told his guys to hit. Hinch forgot to mention that pregame and never adjusted.

Cora>Hinch
