I think we should at least increase the challenges to 3. I think that’s a fair compromise. Or two plus an extra for the 9th only.

This is actually exactly what needs to happen.

At the very least, Pratt and Hamilton.

This is why you don’t stick Lara at the top of the order after just being called up. Once teams see film they adjust, now Lara will adjust. Anyone want Lara starting over Bauers right now?

I'd rule that an error.

It’s almost comical how hard it is to get an error anymore. 

[TwinsBrewersWorldSeries]

Cmon Dusty… throw strikes.  The last thing we want to do with a lead is walk people

[RobertCrawley]

Go out and talk to May and get a reliever up.

[MuckyFingers]

Oh no, Hall is getting loose........

No, but I’d gladly see him start over Yelich

[Bulldogboy]

Looking like Sproat out there

[RobertCrawley]

Vaughn winds and tosses the foul ball to the dugout.

As the DH? 

[HarryDoyle]

Quality start for May.

[RobertCrawley]

Nice work, Conan!  I mean May!  

[baseball101]

Good enough by May.

[adambr2]

All in all, good results today.

But as it stands he’d be firmly behind Miz, Harrison and Henderson in the playoff pecking order for me.

Biggest difference is Sproat doesn't have the experience to reel things back in when he gets in trouble.

No, you start him in the outfield and start Bauers or Vaughn at DH and the other at 1st.

6 IP, 3 H, 2 R isn’t bad 

He usually struggles in day games also

If the playoffs started tomorrow, yes. But I'd like to see him get comfortable and see what he can do before making that determination.

I agree with this. If Sproat could bear down and get outs when he meets adversity, he'd be fine.

Yeah, this was the biggest difference for sure. May had many Sproat like scenarios today where Sproat often completely falls apart. May didn’t,

I want this game, I'd go Senzatela-Uribe-Megill again. 

[titletownking]

That’s the appeal of Mitchell, turns a single into an extra base hit

[Yaz19]

Speed kills

[RobertCrawley]

Great base running, Garrett!  Great chance for a Badger Mutual insurance run!

I don’t think we see two of those three today.
