Yeah yeah calm down it’s 2 wins, sure it’s awesome they finally won a series but let’s see it continue before you all think they have the division. It would be nice if they could win a series against the reds that’s coming up since they haven’t yet this year

Are you ever happy? Enjoy the wins. We are in first and you aren't happy?

I'm very calm, I will continue to enjoy the very long season and see how it plays out.

As for the division being won, who said that? You keep on spreading the joy though.

And a sweet dp to end it. First series win in over a month. We are great again.

Lets see the sunday lineup Joe puts out there today to see if they are going for the throat.

I could see Descalso starting today, really could

I am happy but let’s pump the brakes since someone or a couple people on this board thinks that they are going to go on this huge 2nd half surge and take the division easily, yes that would be nice but one game, one series at a time . Also Maryland on Friday you was all upset about Strop and I thought he looked fine until he walked the guy before Marte and that’s when I would have pulled him but you said after about 5 pitches you could see that he didn’t have it. I mean he got 2 outs rather quick before he started getting wild. He threw a
Couple nasty sliders To the first couple hitters and he didn’t look bad at all until the walk and then the Marte at bat

How? I’m just saying it’s been awhile since joe had played him and with a series win already I could honestly see Descalso starting today

They pushed out Almora who went 0 for and Russell had a hit and a outstanding play to end it.

I see Joe sticking with Russell because of the chemestry between him and Baez.

I do think that they may test Garcia in the OF soon. I'm not sure how they evaluate his glove there after the testing in Iowa.

Still loser talk.

You really need to readjust your view point with the team.

Going into it thinking that they are going to lose then you really need a new hobby. This will make you miserable.
If you approach it as you (other team) lost or you got lucky. Today. It is a healthier mental approach to it.

Save your stress for real life stuff. This is supposed to be a fun hobby not a dutiful chore.

Funny that doesn't really apply to all of your doomsday/sky is falling crapola.

Thanks

I am not sure if it was "after 5 pitches" maybe more... But you saw him getting wonky too right?
But as Silence said, Strop has been the most reliable and maybe doesnt deserve the short leash?
A bit of a over reaction on my part, it happens.

Is Contreras catching up from Allstars?
I noticed he sat twice this series.

He's sitting today due to a sore foot.
