Carpenter available for pinch hitting.   Probably wouldn't have started against Boyd anyway.

Will see him soon.

Vogt going with the mental strategy of burning his good relievers super early again in a game where Skubal will go 6-7 innings
Lazar picking up where the BIG 3 left off....

I don't think so.   He will be used for one AB.  Not sub in and multiple ABs.   Plus, JHM is swinging well.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

Already used.

And already burned Vogt

Hopefully you'll get to do it again next year.

Like every other team, there are definitely areas for improvement.   Starting pitcher (is Jobe ready?  Manning?) righthanded, power hitting hitting third baseman (Bregman?), resolution on Baez (I do not see a way he returns)   Carpenter hitting lefties.  Torkelson finding his 2023 power.

All of their young guys need to take the next step.  There are more prospects in the pipeline.   
It was fun.   But lightning in a bottle is hard to do twice.   They will be the hunted.

Mets gotta get Senga out of there or this game will be over quickly

He has zero control

Insane decision to immediately go bullpen day in game 2 against Manea

Massive backfire

A pitcher with a knack in name only.

I am willing to call my shot now

It works in the 162 game regular season, and barely against an inexperienced underdog cinderella who also has only 1 starting pitcher

But you literally cannot win a world series with a pitching staff like Cleveland. I dont care how good your pen is

Alex Cobb to Joey Cantillo in game 1 of a LCS is objectively equal parts hilarious and insane.

Cantillo pitched fine if you like walks and wild pitches

Hey, he got an out.

Hopefully for his sake, he doesnt also have to drop pitching all together.

He went full rookie in the playoffs pitching in NY.   Whole team forgot how to throw strikes for a minute.

Putting a rookie in with the bases loaded in a ALCS game in Yankees stadium. Who could have predicted that might not go well?

Im genuinely curious if Vogt has any idea MLB games are 9 innings

Hes an absolutely horrific manager
