  1. Fuck man. Really wanted the hometown kid to be a part of this run for us. I know we have the depth, but it sucks to see for him.

  2. Feel for him, he’s done everything he could to stay healthy this year and it hasn’t worked out for him. Hopefully he’s back sooner rather than later

  3. Massive kudos to Higgy for seeing something was off after those first two pitches and catching Musgrove’s demeanor in the 4th inning.

  4. Incredibly predictable. The way he shook his arm and his velo dropped was so obvious. I hate everything about this.

    DO IT FOR PETER, DO IT FOR JOE

  5. Terrible…but does this mean we try to sign Blake Snell in the offseason to make up for a missing arm

  6. I think we all knew Joe’s elbow wasn’t right since the end of last season. Props to him grinding it out as much as he did this year. Literally pitched till he physically couldn’t.

    Maybe if lucky we see him at some point next season.

  7. Awful. And not to be selfish, but since his return, he has been our best pitcher, at least by counting stats and matching King on rate stats.

    Darvish been so-so since his return, but hoping he can tighten up. If we get past the Dodgers, makes that 4th starter spot much emptier.

    But sucks. That written, post TJ guys often come back stronger, so hoping that for Musgrove.
