It's only an avatar if the Cubs get swept.
In case you missed it last night: https://twitter.com/TitanicBaseball/status/1028843854580121600?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

Anyway, another week in baseball, and from what I’ve heard, Baltimore is the first team eliminated from postseason contention. Schedule’s here.

He's doing a good job battling back, gave up a few hits and now he's probably gonna strike out the 7-8-9 guys

yeha I mean I get the reasoning, he just seemed hot and we've got like 30 more games in a row so taking rest where you find it can't hurt

Yeah, but he was definitely only pulled for a pinch-hitter due to how the inning was going so far. He was ready to hit when he was pulled back. Not the worst play, but it's a shame he didn't get another inning.

Also this game is over now, lmao.

Bullpen could use the rest but Touki is also already approaching more innings than he's ever thrown in a year so probably a wash

We'll need the pen when Folty goes 120 pitches in 5 innings tonight, but at least in this game they can just use a mopup guy.

this Sobotka guy has a future I think, even if he loses a pitch or two, there's a lot to be said about a pitcher with a 1.000 average and 2.000 OPS

If a pitcher was to get their first MLB hit today, I didn't expect it to be a reliever. Good job.
