Brandon Nimmo To hear that the injury was yeah minor. Yes, very
good. We're very happy about it. So, you know best case scenario
dodged a bullet there and you know really excited about this being a short-term thing.
So day-to-day right now good day today and we'll see how
I'm doing tomorrow and we'll make the right call
for tomorrow on my availability. What can you do right now in
terms of swinging the battle whatever so right now, Now we didn't swing the bat today. We got on anti-inflammatories
and modalities today in order to
help it along and right now just
treating symptoms and you know, hopefully we'll be in
a good place tomorrow and be able to swing the bat and throw
and do it ever do everything tomorrow when your mind is just one two, three. Yeah, very very
minor, you know, it's hard for me to say right now just because I do feel very good right now,
but we did give it a day away from you know, throwing and
hitting so Very excited for tomorrow, but I also don't want to tell
you guys like hey, I'm in there because you know, we didn't get to test it out
today as far as wanted to give it to one of you
know, 24 hours to rest and get the modalities on and
some anti-inflammatories because I did I did damn
shoulder but you know, it's not it's not something I'm hoping.
This is very serious. You know, it's great MRI, and honestly, like I said in the
beginning like dodged a bullet and I'm just I'm very
very happy about that right now. Are you going in I was I was a
little bit concerned. I will say, you know last night I sent a text to my trainer and
said hey, you know, I'm feeling pretty optimistic about this
because it hasn't gotten worse. And you know, I remember last year
with the AC joint. It did get worse, you know as the day
progressed. And so I texted me last night and said
hey, you know, I'm trying to not get too excited here, but I
feel good and I think you know, I think we might have dodged a
bullet here and sort of have the MRI confirm that it's Makes me really happy
series. We just jammed it on impact coming down fat cat. Yep.
Yep just started around, you know, you've got your ball and socket in the joint and get a jammed around in
there. You know, I can cook a few
things and and kind of causing some inflammation in there. And
then I think the swing was kind of the bodyguarding it and you know, that's why we got
the sharp little staying on the on the backswing of that one.
But you know, it happens little things happen throughout
the year. I'm just I'm glad it's a little thing right now. Yes, is that still? Yeah, no, it's
feeling much better today and you know was able to go through
all my modalities and all my exercises today. So very encouraged by it and
we'll get some rest tonight and come back tomorrow and see how
it is after all that, you know, it was it was gone to an extent as the day went on and then you know when we got
heated up and we did all the modalities and everything.
Really good to go. You know it was it was feeling
much better. So very excited about that. But yeah again, like I said kind of
in a wait-and-see mode with you know rest tonight and
see how it is tomorrow. But with how things went today, I'm
very very hopeful for tomorrow really disappointed coming at a
time when your back was heating up again. Yeah for sure no
doubt, but you know one off day happens all the time sure having two three four, you
know, those those kind of add up. So my hope is to be as quick as
back. Quick quick quick as quick as possible and just be able to you know,
kind of help help these guys. However, I can again, you know, it happens and you
know, we'll get back into it quickly. Like I said, I hope the
swing tomorrow and get right back into it. You
mentioned not swinging a bat be able to throw a ball or do you
try to throw there was no throwing or swinging today. We felt it best to take the day
off from that and then do that tomorrow and we'll go ahead and test
everything out tomorrow. All right. Alvarez is ball. Leave the yard.
Yeah, or if I didn't see you guys
there. Yeah. Yeah for sure. You know, I mean definitely it was a roller
coaster of a game but you know Alvey he lives for
those moments and he's a really special kind of player. You know. I said, I know things
haven't been going as well as he would love but that doesn't
mean anything to him in those situations. You know, he just
needs that one time and he always looks for it. So just unbelievable. I'm so happy
for him couldn't have happened to a
better guy. In ways that he lives for those
moments so, you know huge really seem huge
for Alvey and we'll hope to build on that
tomorrow David Peterson calls call this one of your best Islands had you feel yeah. So Kim felt like Javi and
I had a good plan and we were able to execute it and were able to kind of just go
right after them and you know stay on that offensive
attack talk about the block and get it affect you when you gave
up the home run at the next Bap. Yeah. It's You know, I didn't feel like a
super long time. It was in between hitters. And when I came up I saw the clock
was low. And you know, that's my fault. I
should have stepped off and been able to kind of reset the
clock. And so yeah, that one's on me and then yeah, you know, I threw a fastball on the bach down in
the zone and we should have should have
switch to something else and I think he saw that and then we throw a sinker right
after that and he was able to hit it. Out who was in see Albie
hit that home. Run. Awesome. We were you I was in here. Yeah, I was in
here and we had it on and so it was fun to watch and he's he works his butt off and I'm glad it worked out for him
tonight particularly special coming from your catcher to have
the game-winning home run. Absolutely. Yeah, we battle all
night and it was a lot of fun to work with
him. And like I said, he works his butt
off and so to see him be the one to end it tonight
was was special. I think just you know talking
with our guys and making sure that we have our
plan in order and then when game time comes, you know, just
go out and execute be able to execute all my
pitches and learn from the previous start
get better for the next one and just continue to go forward into
this summer chance to win every time I get the ball limit the walks tonight. Yeah, I think it was just being his own attack and execute and just you know, trust my stuff trust
the defense draw Stalvey and yeah just be aggressive with
with attacking the zone and go after those guys you feel an
extra significance of the games and as
we get down the stretch the last quarter of the Season. Yeah, I mean, you know, there's there's
obviously that perspective of where are we are we are on our
way out, you know, and I don't think we're really
focused on that. You know, I think we're focused on the game today and tomorrow will be
focused on beating the Orioles and you know, we're taking it one
day at a time one pitch at a
time controlling what we can control and focus on what's in front of us today and
let the cards settle how they do. All of your pitches have felt
this season kind of being able to go to kind
of any pitch in any count. Yeah. I felt like I felt very
consistent with all my pitches tonight and I felt like I could throw
anything at any time and you know, like I said trusting
the defense trusting Alvey and just being aggressive with my
stuff and then going after guys, Carlos Mendoza he's always a pretty confident kid, Carlos did do you think he
kind of needed that just the way the season had been
going for him lately? Yeah 100%
He's been hard for him 22 years old that you know
struggling had the big league level and I've been saying it he there's so much and he wants
to win in a time when we were struggling offensively as a
team. Like he feels like he's responsible and he's got a lot on his plate, you
know with, you know, taking care of
pitching staff and things like that, but the Homer, you know the impact I
like that bats as of late, but for him to finally hit one out of the ballpark, it's been a while and you know in that situation
to give us to give us a win happy for him. Mike Just the way this thing had gone
all night. You guys had control there and then a couple of free things there in
that last inning with Peterson. Just just to come away
with the victory how gratifying is this and
especially when you look at this stretch of game, did you
just started playing? Yeah, he was good. And you know, I
thought Peter was really good like he's been good for us, but
probably today was one of his best outing in terms of The mrs. Today they were close
pitches. They weren't, you know, non-competitive pitches in
the conviction the fastball the way he used all of his
pitches. He stay always on the attack and
that's a good hitting team right there. And he was just
right when right after and then yeah in that seventh, you know, leadoff double and
then he gets a ground ball. Guess it strikeout and the BOK happens and you
know, and then before, you know it they tied they target the
game with a homer but again, I thought today was probably his
best outing of the year and he's been very good for us. Were
you going to come back with Diaz for the 10th? No, no, Dan. What was the the bach do they
call that on Alvarez or ya know he was the pitch Club was coming down.
So he didn't stop so instead of step step off, you know and just
you know, he decided to make a pitch for
the club was coming down to zero. So all he needed to do was
you Step off and he decided to make a pitch
and didn't stay didn't stop. well Hey call she mentioned how much
Francisco Alvarez wants to contribute for the lineup if he
could build off of this what how critical is that for? All these critical. This important
is huge. We've been talking about some of these guys that
it's been hard for them. They're you know, they're going
through stretches where it's not easy Nemo, you know, one of them and
then for him to hit a couple of Homer's the past couple of days and Al
Burris is the other one. They are bad. They've been
better, but we haven't seen that impact in games. And for for us to see it today
is going to be is going to be huge because you know, when you
have a guy like that going hit him in the bottom of
your lineup lineup we talked about how deep our
lineup is, but we need these guys to get
going and you know as a hitter when you get what you get a
whole one like that you can get you back on track.
So hopefully that's the case here. Many just out of curiosity
leading up to that big hit. He'd been struggling a bit at
the play. What have you been seeing? What were you seeing from him and kind of what? What did he do
right in that bad? Well, I mean when you're
struggling there's a lot of different things going on
whether it's you know, you're not on time your tape which you
know, you're going to be chasing because you're not
recognizing pitches and then when you do get your
pitches you're going to be late and you're going to be missing
them today in the past couple of games. I feel the timing is getting
better. He's A shorter to the wall. He's controlling the strike zone
a little bit better, even though there's some Chase there
at time and then just today, you know, staying up the middle 30 against a pretty good fastball in for him. Like I said, not
only stay in short but getting the head out is a good feeling. It's a good
sign that even saying anything about his finger before there's
no Health Wise, he's fine. He wants
to something I got it, you know, we got to pull him
back at times because he wants to keep going all the time. So and Three when you got a chance to talk to
me Mo. How's he feeling was he an option for you tonight? He came in he was a pinch runner for me
today. I wasn't going to let him swing the bat or throw
because he's a right shoulder but feeling good. So we'll see what we got
tomorrow. So is the day-to-day see wakes up tomorrow and feels like he could go then
he'll be in there. Jerk think I Jose got up in the
seventh inning Peterson. What was your plan to use him for
more than three outs or was he always going to be an eighth inning guy
if you tonight no, look he was I got them. I got
them up, you know in case I needed him in the
seventh, but I thought you know leadoff
double but then he got a ground ball and struck out. I was like,
you know, I wanted that match up the Peters amulius knowing that they had a couple I love lefties of the bench. So in the way Peterson was throwing
the ball. That was the decision there. So
but no he was he wasn't limited at. Thanks, Carlos. Do you think
that the Peterson was rattled by the
block and then gave up the Homer? Maybe? I don't know but again
like the Vela was there you happen fast right now. I think
it was the very next pitch so Sinker and he has got him so I don't know you. Probably won't
have to ask him.
And he smacks one to deep right center field b goes johnson at the wall and it's out of here a grand slam for francisco lindor he was in the driver's seat and he drove it right out of the ballpark his seventh career grand slam his 26th home run of the year and it's 5 to nothing new york among all his...
