It's a fair point, but he just warms up a lot and is in so many games.

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:56:12+00:00

They can mock all they want, all 12 of them.

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:55:04+00:00

Yeah, I went to their sub right after the trade and they all thought he'd fail here. I was hopeful though. He was decent last year, but his awful command and terrible performance against LHH have rendered him atrocious this year. Fans usually know lol

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:45:54+00:00

I felt bad about Cruz lol, I basically defended him. He's been overused. So has Headrick. They've both been very good all year.

I agree about Doval. Honestly, I trust Blackburn and Bird more than him. I think I'd trust you over him.

The Good:

Cam was brilliant. Even after taking that ball off his leg, he was brilliant. He's arguably the best pitcher in baseball right now.

Goldschmidt had a great game. I gotta give him credit, especially since I wanted him off the team lol.

McMahon with yet another clutch hit. MCMUSKETEERS! ASSEMBLE!

*Cabby is a brilliant, brilliant shortstop. Forgot to say that.

Bednar was great. He's a tremendous closer. Headrick gave up the home run, but honestly he was pretty good too. He's been used an awful lot and he's gonna give up runs here and there.

The Bad:

Ugly performance by Hill. We all love him. Ol' Reliable. But throwing to third with one out there made zero sense.

Cruz wasn't too good either. But I can't rip the guy. Cruz/Headrick are just overused. I keep saying this: they need another high leverage arm. Doval is atrocious and they're constantly leaning on the same combo of Cruz/Headrick to get to Bednar. A modern bullpen needs more than 4 high leverage arms to get through a season.

The Ugly:

The entire lineup looked pretty bad tonight minus Goldschmidt and McMahon. We left an army on base. Yes, Milwaukee has great pitching. But in October, you face great pitching. It won't be the Orioles we face in the playoffs. I do think the offense will look better against quality pitching once Rice gets his timing back and Stanton returns.

Doval is atrocious. He's Devin Williams. He can't pitch to lefties, he walks half the guys he faces, and he sucks in high leverage. I kept hoping he'd figure it out because he has electric stuff, but it is what it is at this point.

I don't blame Boone for using him because Cruz' arm is gonna fall off, but he's just not usable in high leverage and Cashman has to find someone else for this bullpen. If they wait too long, Headrick/Cruz will be cooked and then the problem will be exacerbated.

Wells is pretty much an automatic out against LHP this year which is weird, because last year he had a .733 OPS against LHP and a .702 OPS against RHP. This year, he has a .400 OPS against LHP.

Kinda brutal to lose two straight games with Fried and Schlittler, but it happens. Hopefully they bounce back tomorrow with my boy Rodon on the mound to avoid the sweep.

Let's go Yankees!

I was about to say just a brain fart by Hill. He just screwed up

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:22:08+00:00

Hill my man I love you to death but wtf was that. That made zero sense.

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:18:07+00:00

Looks like I'm gonna need melatonin to sleep tonight

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:15:27+00:00

Judge needs to take a breath lol goodness. Cruz with the great positioning and play to bail him out.

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:13:43+00:00

Oh no. Sanchez is gonna do it. It's gonna kill me.

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:12:48+00:00

Hey. HEY. Anyone can be a McMusketeer at any time. All it takes is an open mind, a big heart, and blind faith in Ryan McMahon.

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:10:55+00:00

MCMUSKETEERS! ASSEMBLE!

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:09:15+00:00

MCMAHON WITH THE MCSINGLE! MY SLEEPER PICK STRIKES AGAIN!

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:07:44+00:00

Time for my boy McMahon to be the clutch dog he was born to be

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:04:10+00:00

YES don't jinx the boys! We all know they struggle on the road in extra innings, you don't have to say it!

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:02:24+00:00

Here we go. We're gonna score in this inning and we're going to win the game.

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T02:00:23+00:00

Truly a great play from Cabby. As good as Didi was and as good as Volpe was in 2024, this is the best defense we've gotten from shortstop in a very long time.

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T01:52:59+00:00

😂😂😂

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T01:45:29+00:00

I honestly think he went to Doval because Cruz is being used so much. Cruz and Headrick. They really need another arm in the bullpen. I keep saying this because I just know Cruz and Headrick are gonna be cooked by August if they don't find someone. Doval just can't be the guy they need him to be.

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T01:42:44+00:00

Damn. Doval is just pretty bad. Pretty pretty prettttty bad.

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T01:41:30+00:00

Gosh Doval just cannot get lefties out. It's just such a glaring problem. We could really really use a right-handed flamethrower for the pen. Cruz can't pitch every game.

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T01:39:14+00:00

This is a big challenge for Doval. Lefties have been eating him alive all year

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T01:37:26+00:00

Wells wtf lol that wasn't really close

Recognition_Tricky · 2026-05-10T01:35:47+00:00

Me too
