Crap...if we score 4...
I can envision this happening:
Pos: Trey, despite having 2 outs in the eighth and the bases loaded, you still didnt bring in Soria, and instead brought in Jamey Wright…why?
Trey: Look I didnt want to use him in a non-save situation….I can’t explain this to you
I refuse to set up a signature....DAMMIT
You've got a lot more confidence in the pitching/ defense than I do at this point.
He can get 4, NOT 5.

but WTF? Soria’s a china doll, apparently, but he has not problem having Wright throw every night?
It’s screwed up not just strategically, but just burning a guys arm for no good reason is just shitty

we’ve had a lead for what seems like every game and our bullpen has to come in and fuck it up. And Soria’s pitched once in this streak and it was when the game was already done.

also i just want to point out that pitch f/x h ad soria clocked at NINETY FIVE MILES PER HOUR LAST NIGHT
which is the fastest i have EVER seen him throw in a royals uniform. never ever see him hit 95, and he hit 94 multiple times last night.
BUT HES TOO TIRED AND FRAGILE TO PITCH

I saw the same in the game. He hit 95

Anyone think that's why McClure went out to talk instead of Trey?
Maybe Trey didn’t want to hear the boos again.
He can get 4, NOT 5.
Or maybe McClure actually has something helpful to say to the players

Not watching the game, but my phone EXPLODED and I just looked at the box score.
The first time this happened last Friday I was angry. The second time on Saturday I was furious. The third time I laughed my ass off.

Honest question- why was the middle infield playing halfway?
Why wouldn’t they be back at normal (DP) depth? That line drive would have been right at Yuni.

why wouldn't you bring your corners to the baseline and leave the middle infield back in DP depth?
