    Sample size seems a little small, though.

    Not trying to sound like a B Beane apologist, but when the Yanks got Gray I told a few Yankee fans Beane knows Manaea is better but got Cashman to
    think Gray was Oakland's No. 1 and would thrive as a No. 3 in NY. Also thought Graveman was as good as Gray, but may be wrong about that.

    Gray had more service time and is making $6M this year while Manaea is making $550K. That’s the only thing the A’s care about. They don’t give a shit which one is better.

    Guess we know manky's a sock puppet after all.

    That's supposed to be all blue font, right? Yeah perfect games are a rarity, but usually there's some luck involved. Some of the most dominating pitching performances
    ever are not even no-hitters. As far as making hitters look completely overmatched I'll go with Kerry Wood's 20 strikeout game against the Astros. Houston managed a
    hit, but Wood made them look foolish. Pretty much every batter looked like a Little League kid batting against a Danny Almonte. Boston has one of the best lineups in
    the league. Manaea wasn't as overpowering as Wood, but he pretty much toyed with the Red Sox.

    Error was in the fifth.

    Seems like she's saying he thought that was a hit and he didn't realize it was an error until the 8th?
