Hinch sending a message to the team by running Vest out there in the 7th inning of a tied game. Aaaand and dumb error.

They're gonna blow this game, aren't they?

WTF, Vasil?

Score more runs, dummies.

This is more like it.

Yeah it is. Let's move this discussion to the Political forum if you wish to have it.

That's fair, but I'd still pick up the phone and make the call.

The fact that Bichette has not received an extension and is playing on the final year of his contract leads me to believe that the Jays have no intentions of signing him to a new deal. So unless they're solidly in the WC -- not on the bubble or within striking distance -- they'd be wise to get something for him rather than nothing. They probably won't get a Top 100 guy for him -- I wouldn't give that up for a few months rental -- but if someone else is willing to offer that, they can have him. If I'm Harris, though, I'm at least making the call to find out.

Of course not.

Crazy thing is, I wouldn't be shocked if the Tigers come back and win this game.

The bright side is that the ChiSox pen is gettable.

We need at least one legit bullpen arm -- and ideally two -- at the deadline to replace Holton and Hanifee.

LMFAO! Holton and Hanifee blow.

JFC...

I don't have much faith in Holton at the moment, either.

So Tork is basically Tork Bomb or K now. Gonna need 40+ HR for that to work.

All he has to do is make a decent throw to 2nd, and the Tigers are hitting right now.

Why is Hanifee on this team?

It seems like every game I watch that Hanifee pitches in, he sucks.

If the price is too steep, you hang up the phone, but Bichette being a rental lowers the realistic cost. I'm absolutely down with making the call to inquire. I like Sweeney, but Bichette is a massive upgrade for a team with championship aspirations.

You root for a NYY sweep.

They're basically doing to the A's what the Tigers just did to the ChiSox.

I suspect Wilson will be tasked with pitching to whatever his pitch count is at this point.

LMAO Carp!
