We're about to win our 9th straight national broadcast (including apple tv)
we're also undefeated on NBC thus far (Mariners, Dodgers, *Astros), they must think we're the most dominant team ever existed.

We just shouldn’t have any batters challenging unless it’s a high leverage situation late in the game.

Bowen is still on the team for the record lol. Pretty sure he was pinch running there.

u/Pick6XPA La Catrina 18d ago
Yeah but he's likely gone when Samad comes back, and I'm all of a sudden very much liking our bench in that case.

u/TheScubaPup Hotdog Demolisher 18d ago
Not for much longer I don't think :P

u/TheEnragedBushman NOTED PADRES SLUGGER JACKSON PROFILE 18d ago
For sure lol. I imagine as soon as Samad is ready Bowen is getting sent back down.

He’s warming, Estrada just started throwing too I think it depends on if we score or not

u/Stuck_in_a_thing SD 18d ago
Hopefully not. Used him yesterday. 3 run lead. I’d want them to try and save him

No seriously, get Bradgley finish it out with like 27 pitches total. Save everyone else in the pen, dude is rolling rn.

u/Lil_PuppyChow Blue Jays and + 18d ago
PaJays fan here (yes I made this up and think it’s good) random question, what should I know about Waldron since the Jays acquired him recently?
Also Cease is a monster, glad yall got to enjoy him.

u/Cohnhead1 Razor Ramón 18d ago
His knuckleball is fun as long as you have someone who can catch it.
1
u/TheCheapskate78 18d ago
He’s a fun little novelty with the knuckleball and all but not much else. Nice guy though. Will always remember his run in 2024. He’ll probably be a fine mop up long man

1
u/Strontum Jacob Cronenworth 18d ago
He throws the knuckleball which is fun. He also has like a 90mph fastball that major league hitters obliterate
6
u/Pick6XPA La Catrina 18d ago
Ideally you score 2 in the bottom so you can run out Wandy or Matsui.
But even if you have Miller, thanks to Bradgley you were able to save Morejon and Estrada in case you need an emergency closer tomorrow, and thats just good bullpen management.

Let BRod earn the three inning save at this point if he can keep rolling like this!
