Maybe Gott can go another inning so we can avoid Devin.

Oof, they have a team wRC+ of 53. That is impressively horrendous: https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=0&type=8&season=2022&month=0&season1=2022&ind=0&team=0,ts&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&startdate=2022-01-01&enddate=2022-12-31&sort=17,d

Yikes. That’s unwatchable.

So you want a boring eighth inning? Where’s your fighting spirit?

I hope this gott is the real deal.    
 

 

[magnoliacrew]

Appreciate Philly fans dedication to the wave.

Not ready for the incoming heart attack in the bottom of the eighth 

[HarryDoyle]

People do know Williams was pretty dominating his last appearance, right?

I believe CC retrieved the stone tablets from Mount Sinai that says, "Thou shalt not pitch any other pitcher than Devin Williams in the eighth"

[Brewcrew82]

I never doubted him.

[brewers888]

Nice to be wrong about Devin.

[magnoliacrew]

Really liked the determination of Devin's face with Harper.

Nicer to be right about him too.

[Brewcrew82]

I tell you what, Renfroe CAN BE a #6 hitter on a World Series team. What we lack right now is an additional top of the order hitter.

Not going to lie...watched his inning and looked at his season to date as a refresher of what we've seen...and, now, I can't get this out of my head (substitute 'Gott'):

?

[willie key]

Was he not available in the 8th yesterday or was counsell afraid to use him

 

i mean devin

[TURBO]

Not going to miss Brosseau at all...

[Robocaller]

so maybe we don't have to worry about Renfroe any more.

So Brosseau goes down when Urias comes back?

That is my bet...

[willie key]

I would prefer to give hiura a chance this year

[Brewcrew82]

That's your fault, angel.

Levering: "Very nonchalant call"

Rock: "Yeah, well..."

The implied "it's Angel Hernandez" was pretty funny. 

 

[magnoliacrew]

You make my dreams come true!

[NBBrewFan]

Enjoy Josh Hader while we have him.  It's like watching Picasso paint (so I've heard, not from experience).
