bronkonagurski Posted July 29, 2021 Report Share Posted July 29, 2021 Ross should have given Rizzo and Bryant AB's in the 9th to get the final cheers they deserve. I don't care if he was instructed otherwise either, grow a set and do the right thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th, Ross finally decided to get Bryant up in the on-deck circle but too late. Heyward predictably whiffed and game over. You could see Bryant in the dugout afterwards sitting there soaking it all in for a few minutes. While he officially isn't traded yet, seems like a foregone conclusion to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't say anything on Voit but all Schwarber is going to do is flick his wrists and hit home runs in that ballpark. Just wanting him to get healthy.

The rest of this year probably DH....but if hamstring is healthy he'll play a very short left field. Not much room to cover out there but I'm thinking just DH.

I'm thinking 85 but could be wrong. I was just trying to figure out how a Seaver/Blue starting rotation in playoffs would have looked if trade was allowed. At least one more title if not more I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
