News and Notes: BAT JOSE LEADOFF TODAY, STEPHEN
News and Notes for Sunday, September 29th, 2024
Jose Ramirez hit home run number 39 as the Guardians fell to the Astros 4-3.
Brayan Rocchio made a ridiculously bad throw to allow two crucial runs to score and looked horrific at the plate. Hope it was just a bad game? Kyle Manzardo and Bo Naylor had poor at-bats all game... just working out pre-playoff kinks? And Ben Lively saved our season but probably should watch our postseason.
The bullpen was good, as usual. I was at the game and the crowd was fun and the fireworks were great and delighted my four-year old son.
The Guardians will have the two-seed in the playoffs. They will play either the Astros or, if the Tigers lose today and the Royals win, the Royals, or the Tigers if the Tigers win today or both Royals and Tigers lose.
Stephen Vogt should bat Jose leadoff today to give him the most chances possible to hit 40 homers (he also sits at 39 doubles). He looks locked in so let's hope he can keep that up.
