  1. I doubt it. Jeffress is no slouch, and Knebel has been terrific the last couple weeks. Good options available. Yes, but did you just watch the previous 2 innings. Man vs boys out there
  2. Leave Hader in. Either way he can't pitch for the rest of the series now. Plus he is hitting .500 this year
  3. 24 players got an AL MVP vote that year, including Kirby Puckett (3rd, .900 OPS), Tony Fernandez (8th, .805 OPS), Gary Gaetti (10th, .788 OPS), Jeff Reardon (11th), Darrell Evans (12th, .880 OPS), Doyle Alexander (13th), Wally Joyner (.894 OPS, 13th), Robin Yount (18th, .862 OPS), Kevin Seitzer (20th, .869 OPS), Ruben Sierra (20th, .771 OPS), Jose Canseco (23rd, .780 OPS), and Matt Nokes (24th, .880 OPS). Quite a few guys with a lower OPS got votes that year. Trivia - who had the highest OPS that year among vote-getters? Boggs?
  4. And who had Larry Sheets putting up a .921 OPS in 1987? And hitting .316 with 31 HRs and 94 RBI? And not getting one MVP vote for doing that? 1987 was the anomaly year where the ball was juiced and power numbers were way, way up.
  5. I guess the moose was gassed on the double and just figured he would jog home?
  6. Of course CC doesn't get Hader up because as usual his primary decision making tool for what reliever to use is the inning, not the score/situation.
  7. Miley is playing with fire, no bullpen action? Could be the game here...Hader has not pitched in a few days.
  8. I am more concerned with the bullpen. It would be great if Knebel returns to form and we could hope for maybe 2 innings each from Hader/JJ/Knebel for the wildcard game. In that case the starter is not as important
  9. A series win would put CC at .500 for his career managerial record. Right now he is 302-303
  10. Tim Dillard: the new hitting coach! In all honesty, he seems like an absolutely fantastic clubhouse presence. I hope he is brought up to help keep the guys loose and having fun these final few weeks! Seeing as he'll be on Brewers Live and tweeted @FSN I'm guessing he'll be some part of the broadcast team this September. He may even be announcing his retirement to join the TV crew full time. He'd be great to do bits every now and then interviewing fans and going behind the scenes. Between Coshan and Augie I just don't see any room for more talent unfortunately, sort of a Steve Young/Joe Montana situation
  11. I will just say this now and jinx everything so you can blame me for us getting swept, but if we would somehow sweep the Cubs at home, jump them into first place, combined with the awesome Packers comeback yesterday this would be the great 4 day stretch against the FIBS in recent memory
  12. Moose is hitting .167 against Quintana lifetime.(4 for 24) I don't think that's pretty good at all. Moose has an .899 OPS in 47 PA with 3 HR against Quintana https://www.baseball-reference.com/play-index/batter_vs_pitcher.cgi?pitcher=quintjo01&batter=moustmi01
  13. Now with 22 games left, if we go .500 we will end up with 90 wins.
  14. I just hope CC doesn't think Albers "turned a corner" and uses him a real game now
  15. Entering this series we were 12-32 in games where we hit 0 HRs. I would not have guessed we would be 2-0 in that category this series so far
  16. Would he use Hader 3 straight days if we had a 1 run lead in each game? The Indians with Andrew Miller have shown the league the blueprint, will CC follow it?
