@JohnMatye #2 especially bad. Gaddis so obviously struggling but he leaves him in anyway, and then game is essentially over 🙄

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@finkn23 Not pinch hitting for Fairchild was unbelievably stupid but I’m not sure what Vogt is supposed to do about a lousy bullpen.

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@finkn23 Of course you pinch hit Schneeman. Managing malpractice.

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@twithersCLE Other teams know it too. Yesterday with runners on second and third, the Sox pitched to him instead of walking him, as used to always happen in such situations.

@pandem1cleo Two past TJ surgery and the guy is tied for third in appearances in MLB? You were just asking for this to happen 😞

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@NickKristof @_sofiabarnett @StarTribune @PulitzerPrizes Terrific. Congrats to Sofia (and Nick for good judgment)!

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@acsifferlin Yay! So well-deserved.

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@CleGuardians @CleGuardPro The curse of a “players’ manager.” Unwilling to offend anyone so he’s seen as a good guy.

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@CleGuardians Why does Vogt leave in Cecconi when it’s abundantly clear he has nothing tonight? Now game out of reach. Doesn’t want to hurt his feelings?

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@JRamEnjoyerr @CleGuardians Willis and Vogt too robotic to try something new.

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@johnmauceri21 @BallsackSports Or Danny Salazar.

@PennMBB @PennChampions Legends 👊👊👊

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@bportnoy15 So was I!

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@robertwolf32 @PennMBB Love those guys! I hope they gave some good mojo to the current team.

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@CLESportPrspctv Agree. Was ranting about this!

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@JacobsFieldRBW Can we please have a moratorium on posts that say “We are still in the Wild Card race”?

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

@CleGuardians Thanks Vogt and Willis for unnecessarily throwing Williams, with a history of a bad elbow, 126 pitches a few outings ago. Two awful outings since then.

[Barron H. Lerner @barronlerner]

Glad to write this for the Hastings Center Bioethics Forum!

[The Hastings Center for Bioethics @hastingscenter]

Most troubling part about removing uncomfortable truths from history is the whitewashing that follows. If you disagree, the answer isn’t to erase them,it’s to challenge them w/ thoughtful counterarguments.🤔

@JoeNogaCLE @hoynsie Nice podcast but beyond the fact that Williams was still wiped out last night, isn’t throwing him 126 pitches unnecessarily a bad idea when so many pitchers now burn out their arms and need Tommy John? Look at Bieber! Why take chances? Our pen usually good.

@SlangsOnSports @EliasSports This is why we love you Sarah 🙂
