    Just national TV. I wonder what happens if they advance and get an MLB Network game. A lot of people don't have that. Would they put it on some other channel or "unlock" MLB Network in the market for the game only? DirecTV unlocks MLB Network for me on playoff days...

    I get it, but I don't know who I trust to get those last 17 outs then. That is a lot of outs. Obviously wanted a zero there bad. But on the bright side, we won the inning. Keep at it, O!

    Big to finally get a couple of hits with RISP. Long way to go. Stay focused, Crew!

    I was asking about this in the Anderson thread. Gio can get a few innings, but he shouldn't hit. It depends a little on the Cardinals' lineup, but I would PH for Gio even if it's the top of the 2nd. Then Anderson and Woodruff are obvious choices for about 4 innings of relief, with neither of them hitting and with Jennings or Cedeno each facing Carpenter. Anderson would still be available for a start against the Tigers, so I see no issue with this approach. Plus, I think Chase is a guy you may want to carry in a potential one-game WC scenario, and it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to see how he does in a new role coming out of the pen. I like the plan to get as many offense-minded ABs as possible too. From the other side of this, Gomber has been pretty all over the map lately. He's given up 3 runs to the Tigers, 7 to the Dodgers, and 1 to the Braves in his three Sept. starts. 21 hits and 7 walks in 14 innings. Only one Sept. homer given up, though, and only 3 total on the year. Granted, he's mostly pitched out of the pen, so we'll see. Hopefully, the Crew can put together good ABs and actual get the big, run-scoring hits tonight rather than depending on errors and misplays. The bit of good news for me is that, for as much as the Cards announcers were talking (more like crowing) about Hader's availability after that blow-up sixth inning, the STL bullpen is pretty taxed too. Hicks has been unreliable, and though Martinez has brought consistency to the latter innings, there really isn't a shutdown guy out there. So, hang close, and you can get to that pen.

    I have to think Anderson gets a lot of work tonight. They see what Gio has, and then after (hopefully a solid) 3-4, it's the Chase show until the late innings. If Gio falters early, Chase comes in to try to keep the game within reach and give the Crew some length. Edit: I mean, Woodruff makes sense too, but I'm wondering what they are holding Chase out for. I liked the call last night with a fresh bullpen. Tonight, I think having Anderson as a backup starter is the route I would take, especially with the BP a little taxed.

    I am a bad fan. I can't take it. I put on my lucky sleep shirt (last worn during that game against Pittsburgh woth the 3-run 15th was it?), and I am going to hope I see good news when I wake up. Bring it home.
  7. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Not great results, but 4 good ABs that inning. Hopefully the Crew can scratch a few now that we are back to the top.
  8. Cool Hand Lucroy
    So a normal game then. Just a different order or entry. Yup. But you get to play matchups every inning. That is what I like about this whole idea.
  9. Cool Hand Lucroy
    My plan would be some combo of Cedeno, Guerra, Anderson, Soria, and Woodruff to try to get through 6 with less than 2 runs. Maybe Burnes too. Flaherty has owned us so far, but two of his last three starts have been pretty bad. Hopefully he is wearing down a bit in his first full season.
  10. Cool Hand Lucroy
    I like it. Chase has to know his outings lately have been unimpressive. If he is frustrated take it out by getting outs when he comes in around the 4th inning with a lead.
  11. Cool Hand Lucroy
    What a bad break. Man, I hope Arcia scores. Don't need any attention on what could have been.
  12. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Well, I was wrong. Go get 'em tomorrow.
  13. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Yup. And the Cubs have then for 4 after tomorrow. Even if results hold tonight, I think the Brewers are as likely to catch the Cubs as they are to get caught.
  14. Cool Hand Lucroy
    I have a feeling this Central race is going to turn tonight. Sox will rally to win and so will the Brewers. Probably wrong, but sending oit the vibes.
  15. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Well, that 3rd inning was frustrating, but you need more than 2 to win most nights. How aboit a 7-run 7th tonight?
  16. Cool Hand Lucroy
    I think they jusy wanted Hader vs. the lefty....one more hitter doesn't seem like a big thing.
  17. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Ugh. Matt Adams two-run double. 5-3 Cards in the 8th.
  18. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Yeah, he has been calling the inside pitch to righties a lot tonight. I will take it.
  19. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Jeffress and Hader totally fresh. Cubs have lost. Still gotta get 12 outs. I play no games here. Win today.
  20. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Love it. Gameday for this Kratz AB is hilariois. A horrible ball and a bad strike.
  21. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Rockies down 2-0 early. As much as I don't want to play the Cards in that WC game, I woild rather CO loses and knocks one more off that magic number. My heart can't take the Crew making this too interesting.
  22. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Wow, has Saladino ever looked bad in about every AB this month. I get it. Tough when you get to hit once a week but man. We'll always have May, I guess (or was it June?).
  23. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Always feels like the first inning or two after a delay are the most eventful. We lost one up two in the 8th in Washington after a long delay. Let's get the reverse tonight.
  24. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Longer delay than I thought, but it should chase Nova. Gotta get to that Pirate pen.
  25. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Cards facing Bumgarner. It is1-0 bad guys in the first. I have a weird feeling all three Central contenders lose tonight. Hope I am wrong about the Brewers. We will see.
