carps “hit” should have been an out and potential double play with bases loaded. You know, his usual AB. Murphy blew that and the official scorer took pity on carp.
But at least that hit got Martinez out of there. Going to need him against the Brewers. They don’t take 2/3, they are toast.
Can’t really complain about where we are. We have a “real” chance to win the division. Play meaniful baseball the last week of the division. Catch a few breaks maybe steal the series from the Braves then get roasted by the Dodgers. [Reply]

Of course not. Am I going to laugh at you for wanting to throw him off a bridge and 30 minutes later he drives in a couple of runs? Of course.
No one has been more irrational about Carpenter since 2018 than you, and it's fun to make you wear it. [Reply]

Nothing irrational about my opinion of Carp, BTW that wasn't me throwing him off the bridge but I didn't disagree with it so I'll wear it.
If you are going to try to make some type of point with every Carp hater the list is very very very long. Better get crackalackin. [Reply]
