[Simba2020]

4 homers in 10 innings off of Mears, That aint gonna cut it in high leverage situations.

I missed the pre game. Megill was activated today right? Is Williams hurt again or something?  How is Mears the best option in the 8th of a 3-0 game with those guys available?

 

They probably wanted to give Megill another day of rest I’m guessing. Or ease him back in

Has decent velocity but pretty straight and a fairly easy to pick up delivery.

Would be interesting to know what pitch most of the home runs came off of.

Sit down, Pham...one of my least likeable guys in baseball. 

[wildcat83]

Guessing they want a low leverage situation for Megil first time out?  Would think he’s the normal 8th inning guy moving forward though.

[Cire52]

Why would either of Megill and Devin be unavailable tonight? Megill was just activated and Devin didn't close Sunday and had off day yesterday.

Then why activate him today?? Seems likes a wasted roster spot.

Yeah true ....that doesn't really make sense. You don't activate a guy to give him another day.

Isn't that what the rehab assignment is for?

That's a pretty long list to pick from.

This isn’t going to end well, is it?

He should be the Sept call up and be the long reliever imo

10 hits and 4 bombs in only 10.1 IPs! Was Mears the only guy Murphy had?

[HarryDoyle]

I'll take the Cardinals looking at strike threes all day.

[Gump]

Alright let’s go Devin…get this W for us

This is what happens when you try to get too cute

Nope. Not going to Koenig is going to cost them.

[Nola Beery]

Boogers.

[willie key]

Too bad.  We could have caught the Phillies tonight

Koenig or anybody else. Don't  understand how much they like Mears. Not seeing it.

[BCF]

Wow what a close by Williams
