Hinch has gone really passive. Why isn't Baddoo running there? You've got the backup catcher in, he's catching on one leg and you have good speed on 3rd. Odds are Fermin isn't even going to make the throw. Make KC make a play why not!

Yes.  And who knows, it might snap Lyles out of his groove, too.

The smoke has cleared, humidity is gone, clear skies, fireflies are out in droves, there’s been an owl hooting somewhere around here for the past hour.  Not a bad night to sit out and listen to a ballgame.  Heck, the bird dogs commercials even sound….. less annoying.

So Maton goes down to triple A for 11 games, does just ok, then they bring him back up and expect something different? It just doesn’t make sense. 

They want to see if he has any major league value; They don't think any of the kids are ready; And they clearly don't care about wins or losses.

It does make sense that they are looking at the long term. Its why Harris should trade every guy he can get value for. This is going to take some time.

In fairness, he did pretty well.  .290/.417/.526 ain't just ok.
