Here's another one where all the really bad stuff happened after I was in bed, so I cannot really even claim to have minded it, and yet: a seventh-inning bullpen implosion that also saw George Springer leave the game with a sprained ankle is really not good! The early word is that it isn't all that bad of a sprain, and that Springer won't be out all that long, but he's been latterly hitting at just about peak-Vladdy levels, so even a few games of not having that in the lineup makes a difference. We do, though, enjoy a surfeit of serviceable outfielders these days. Nice to see Téo go three for four with a homer, and Vladdy picked up three hits, too, but this one was trouble. Just trouble. I should note though that I greatly enjoyed Dan Shulman and Buck Martinez getting in memories of the 2001 Seattle Mariners for a half-inning of so there. I was going to say something about how it is hard to believe that that's twenty years ago, but upon even the smallest amount of reflection it is perfectly understandable that that was twenty years ago. And it's fine. But what a team that was!
