I hear ya and agree. Unfortunately it's not what we need right now.

Well, its what we got.

I thought Contreras was toast on that challenge.

I'm sure Miz will learn and grow, but he's not on the same planet as Skubal in terms of pitch mix and pitchability. Guy just knows how to execute.

The best aspect of a Skubal trade may have been him simply being around our young pitchers for a couple months.  They could have soaked up a lot of knowledge.  Got Woody as a vet who’s been through a lot but Skubal on a different level.

[Frisbee Slider]

Some tough luck ground balls and walks…

[Pugger]

Yeah Miz.   Get that slider going.

Me too.  It isn't easy to see that box on the TV.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Lucky to get 5 out of Miz tonight 

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Got a zero in the 3rd for Miz. Going to need an efficient 4th inning to get 5 in.

Need some offense from the woodpeckers at the bottom of the order.

[Gump]

Let’s go!!!

[jason21nl]

That’s pitching!!   You locate off speed you’ll get fastballs by guys.

Most of Woodruff's experience is spending times in different trainer's rooms and rehabbing.

[adambr2]

Great K. Ohtani still scares the crap out of me every time he’s up there. I know he’s struggled the last couple months, does not matter to me. Generational players could quickly find it again anytime. 

[Baldkin]

We are a much worse team if Miz is Freddy Peralta and not Pedro Martinez

[Bulldogboy]

Hope Lara and Ortiz can help keep Miz in the dugout for a bit.

[wildcat83]

Length not a huge factor tonight, everyone is fresh and we only have tonight and tomorrow before another off day.  Starter length will be a little more important during the 3 straight games LA.

Why exactly is Skubal on a different level? This is his first time in the LCS ever. Like he is a vet and a Cy Young, but hardly some crazy inspirational story.

[82brewcrew82]

Wear it Lara

[rccola42]

Not sure righty Lara has much of a shot.

It is a factor because you don't want to over-expose your bullpen. You don't want the Dodgers to see Ashby mutliple games in a row for example.

[BCF]

These are some pathetic AB’s for the bottom of the order 

[adambr2]

Did Lara not get hit?

[Bulldogboy]

That's what I was afraid of with Lara

[Craigilicious]

Ortiz looked pretty lost there

Zero reason for Lara to play
