Manny Machado might be a bigger douche than A-Rod.
I can’t believe that’s possible but it is.

He's getting into chase uttley douchery levels.

He's getting into chase uttley douchery levels.

I get Mets fans putting Utley higher.
I think A-Rod is the gold standard but Utley is solid silver.
Machado can’t be even liked by his own fans like A-Rod. Utley is a god to Phillies fans.

Arod does dumb things sometimes but all in all he comes across as a likeable guy.

Joe Kelly do that 3 more times and your craptastic June to September is completely forgiven.

Amen.

By the way, has his right eye always been this twitchy? Noticed this in the Yankees series, but can't remember it from earlier in the year.

Leon needs to come out.

Leon needs to come out.

If we’re carrying Swihart on the roster there has to be a use for him. It’s been so odd that we haven’t even used him as a pinch runner.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Why not pitch muncy up? That was bad pitch calling by Leon.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Not good

What did I miss? Something today?

Leon is really struggling behind the plate tonight.

 

[Alsacs]

What did I miss? Something today?

He was playing to the crowd after a ground out RBI in the 4th inning.
It was just douchey.

Feels like he didn't understand Brasier at all.

 

[Alsacs]

Feels like he didn't understand Brasier at all.

With 3 catchers he should have been pulled after Sale was taken out.
He is only catching Sale now.
Vazquez played well in his games.

 

[Alsacs]

Dodgers outside of Machado have no idea how to play defense at Fenway.
That is catch for every AL team.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Benny on fire tonight!

 

[NailstheCusefan12]

NUNEZ!

 

[Alsacs]

Alex Cora is charmed.
Nunez went bridge.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Love this team!

 

[Zelda Zonk]

I was just questioning Cora taking Devers out, as he had been productive against the lefty Kershaw. But, BOOM goes the dynamite.

 

[CuseFaninVT]

101 is insane

 

[CuseFaninVT]

Eovaldi was a sneaky amazing pickup.

 

[Alsacs]

Eovaldi was a sneaky amazing pickup.

I gotta give Kaiser credit he said that as soon as it happened.
I liked it as well but I didn’t see it this well.
Just give him the money it would take to resign Kimbrel and hope Thornburg is healthy next year.
Eovaldi is like Derek Lowe 2004 postseason with 100 mph fastball.

 

[Alsacs]

Dodgers remind me of a slightly worse version of the Yankees.
They have a ton of power and outside of Turner and Freese don’t hit for contact. They strike out a lot but drive pitch counts up.
They have a deep bullpen. We will see if the Dodgers rotation is better than the Yankees.
