I am not watching on TV so I am not aware of what may be going on in the bullpen, but if Peralta's spot in the line-up comes up with the bases empty and 2 outs I am sending him to the plate. Actually I would let him bat regardless even if the plan is to take him out of the game pitching wise.

I would pinch hit for him honestly. He has been cruising though.

I feel like from time to time we need to be a little more aggressive with our starter to save our premium arms. If we have a multi-run lead give Peralta at least one batter to get on base. Have someone ready right away though, which Counsell seems to rarely do.

Agreed with everything there. Freddy just scares me because he can lose control quickly which is exactly why CC needs to have the bullpen moving right now.

Well four runs should be enough at this point. Any trouble and the big guns will just put out the flames. Would be HUGE to not use them though.

7-8-9 due up for the Reds, at least let Peralta start the 8th to face them, don't overthink this CC

 

95 pitches and he is into unchartered territory with his total innings this year. Lets just call it a day.

Freddy Peralta's velocity seems to be getting a bit iffy. I know he likes to throw two different fastballs, but he seemed consistently around 89 today.

Braun scorched that one too. Just tuning in and I see Braun lined out to left. Was it an actual lineout or more of a lazy liner?

 

He was out in front, the ball was off the end of the bat for a pretty lazy liner. His first 2B missed a HR by a few feet off the top of the wall
