This was just another gut punch in a whole slew of them through the seasson



poor defense, poor relief pitching, poor decision making on the coaches.



Bae bunting? Sending Newman when he wasn't even at full speed? He's at third with ONE EFFING OUT.



Shelton and his staff are idiots

I don't know if it's been covered yet, but it looks like we've clinched bottom three in the draft standings. The Wikipedia article about the MLB draft says, "The general draft order is the reverse order of the previous year's standings, until 2022. If two teams finish with identical records, the previous year's standings of the two teams is the tiebreaker, with the team having a worse record receiving the higher pick." Consistency is rewarded.

Can't remember the last time Brown and Walk have been so candid on so many occasions discussing a player's faults as they have been with Cruz.



Hard to believe not because they're generally homers, but because it's actual baseball talk
Too bad there's not a pierogi named Oneill. They could have kept that going for 10 minutes.

seasons still have a job?

Read the article- ok he has a problem. During the off season is now the time to be proactive. Be curious to see what he does to

correct it.

Thanks for posting this tidbit. I was not aware of the tie breaker. I was assuming that since we beat the Reds 12-7 in the head to head season series that they would get the #3 spot. I feel better now
