This ump sucks.

 

[RON_IN_OC]

Has to throw it down the middle to get a called strike...haha

 

[RON_IN_OC]

Puk in Torey sucks

Out of necessity, not design...yes, Torrey sucks.

 

[Yuma]

1 pitch out. Thank god!

 

[RON_IN_OC]

Puk and Floro need more late inning opportunities.

 

[GatorAZ]

That’s just sick by Puk.

 

[RON_IN_OC]

Puk cleans up Thompson's mess and Dbacks win. Thank God.

 

[Dback Jon]

Whew

 

[RON_IN_OC]

That’s just sick by Puk.

98 on the edge...just filthy.

Ok Torey - learn from today

 

[Ronin]

Ketel Marte on a bargain deal.

We know that won't happen...next save opportunity - Sewald's Folly or Thompson's Trash.

 

[krazy2k]

Nice comeback win today against arguably the best starting pitcher in baseball right now. The boyz did climb Mt. Skenes!

Torrey is the Whisenhunt of MLB. The system works.

Both had one legendary playoff run but were otherwise mediocre.

Martinez sucked when he was put in a save opportunity. Who’s next? Does anyone here ever blame the players? They’re the ones not doing their jobs.

And were too stubborn to make changes.

All I know is that it should not be Sewald or Thompson. Sewald is messed up mentally and physically and Thompson is just not up to the job. Puk perhaps? When Hazen didn't get a closer at the trade deadline, he did get Puk. Use him until he blows one.

I am willing to try that.

Puk for now, Sewald when he figures his stuff out. Another nice series win on the road, against a really tough starter.

We have to get some guys going ion the farm system. This has been a weakness for us seemingly forever.

Good points. I’m a big homer but this felt like a loss all game. It’s amazing what this team is doing with what they have. Color me relieved.

Their 60th victory in 2024 comes after game 112.

They are pacing far ahead of last year’s team.

A .500 record from here on out puts them at 85-77.

I'm less worried about our relievers/closer than you are...I think Martinez takes over next year.
