I haven't won a gamethread yet.... but both were games started by Pivetta. This one is started by Bello. Things are looking up for me! Go win. Pitch well. Do good defense! Get the runs!!!

"Griffin Canning" sounds like the character name of the fourth male lead in a soap opera

Game 49
We lost on Monday: a 2 to 1 squeaker.
Playoff positioning feels a bit weaker.
We wasted good games from Tanner and Kutter.
Our smooth-running offense now seems to sputter.
Get back in the race! Bello’s bringing the gas.
Rev up and run over the Angels en masse.
And while the Bosox play some West Coast baseball,
Celts face Miami (not the best hosts at all.)
I believe the C's can get back in the fight.
I recall the phrase, “Don’t let us win tonight.”
I still have a dream that they’ll channel Kevin,
reversing the sweep to win things in 7.
Am I kidding myself? Maybe. Maybe not.
But Hope’s what the magic of ’04 hath wrought.

Uh oh, Canning has a change-up that he likes to throw outside to LHB. Let's hope our guys have learned since last night not to swing at those when they're located somewhere out over the Pacific.

Is there any concern about McGuire’s pitch calling? Feel like Vazquez got murdered for it but haven’t heard much about Reese this year.

McGuire: 162 IP, 32 HR, 6.02 ERA
Wong: 261 IP, 35 HR, 4.03 ERA

Is Valdez actually able to play 3B/1B/LF competently? If so he becomes a really interesting bench piece for the next few years
