Not entirely his fault. He got it in the glove.

just want to know why Tena had to get 150+ ABs as the DH when we had Ortiz just waiting around in Triple A.
iirc, Ortiz got off to a slow start. But the basic point, that only 1 of Tena and Vivas should have been fostered, is probably right.

As much as I want to go slow on King for 2027 considerations, a chunk of me wants him up at SS or 2B, Vivas given walking papers, go with House every day, and slot Nunez and Tena as the bench.

Even this bullpen couldn't possibly blow a 6 run lead with 3 innings left.


Yet again.
