  1. I don’t want to look a gift horse in the mouth, but that might be the most deflating win of the year.

    Poor Miggy.

  2. Prayers up for Amaya.

    and please God let that horrifically sad moment light a fire under this team’s ass moving forward

  3. I like how Palencia utilizes the pitch clock. Can only imagine the adrenaline building up while waiting for that 100+ to come at you

  4. Get better soon Miggy!  Glad for the win and to see some manufactured insurance runs.  Hope the team goes on a tear for Miggy now!  

  5. Get well soon, Miggy. You’ll be back. You’ve done it before, you’ll do it again.

  6. Now we have to pull together and do this for Amaya. Prayers for him.

    He put himself in jeopardy hustling with heart, the least this team can do is go out there with some grit and do this for him.

  7. “Assad and Amaya will save us” is off to a rough start. Thanks for giving it everything, Miggy.

  8. Move PCA and Happ down in the batting order with Swanson. Keep moving Hoerner and Shaw up. I don’t care how well PCA played in the first half, dude is lost.

  9. Prayers up for Miggy. Dude busted his ass to get back and was hustling his ass off to make something happen. Maybe that can wake them up. I’d take a team full of Amayas

  10. X rays negative on Amaya! If he avoided a broken leg and it’s only a bad sprain with no knee damage that is unbelievable good luck considering.

    Probably out for the year either way though

  11. The Matt Shaw show. Really pitiful that our 9th batter is the only offense.

    Horton is going to be a stud.
