  1. Thanks Jack! Maybe tonight's game is the game for the tandem starters to work; May for 2, Drohan for 2, Patrick for 2, Harrison for 2? ish, based on the lineup pockets. Ashby is likely quite available after 2 days off. Uribe, DL, and Megill could be off.
  2. Nice breakdown, Jack, especially with the early turnaround for today! Big win. Unfortunately, they sorta need that again today due to this 2-3-2 setup that does get them home til game 6. I like your point that they seem to be in far better shape to do that this year.
  3. Perfect call, I think. My concern always is that his walks per 9 creeps a bit high, but he seems to overall keep it controlled. So interesting, but perhaps illuminating that Uribe, Hall, and Ashby all seem to have that walk per inning issue, yet Megill for the past few years has not. Perhaps that is the ultimate answer as to why Murph puts him in the 9th?
  4. 2 innings apiece. Throw as hard as you can. Ish ... Funny that I'd noticed no Patrick usage, and was thinking Harrison or Gasser as the game 4 starter, but forgot completely about Drohan until they mentioned him stretching in about the 7th last night.
  5. No doubt, thanks Jake! Pitch Plinko ... who knew that was a thing. :-) Learning stuff everyday on this site.
  6. I was surprised, with a deep as a pitching system that the Crew has, that there were only 5 mentions. No explanation of the lower level top guys? Boy, O was up in the minors this year!
  7. Very cool to see positive contributions from a player whose prospect shine was pretty low in March.
  8. Aquino? That one caught me off guard. Not that I am remembering much (anything) from him in the past couple of months. Is he rule 5 eligible this year? He never seemed to be a K guy, however seemed he could fill innings as a ground ball specialist.
  9. Seems to be only a few AA level guys, and the rest below. Unsure if a AAA guy "qualifies"??
  10. Really interesting, Payne is the 2nd youngest on the roster, Mercedes the 3rd, and - I believe Bitonti the 4th. Almost no one is in AA beyond a bunch of the Brewers (including the young Brewers). Gotta be all good signs, no?
  11. Love the explanations and review, thanks Matthew! I actually would have mentioned DL Hall with the 3 others at the end. The Crew's pen is really dialed in right now. Hopefully it is still in 4 weeks.
  12. Much more of a shot at long term lottery tickets, though, no?
  13. And Dustin May is a strong 4th. Plus possibly a game 7 tandem with Harrison. If the Crew can dodge injury & innings bugs in the next 7 weeks, I think they will feel very good about the state of their starting pitching against anyone else's in the playoffs.
  14. I am of the thought also that the Strosnider draft capital was another factor in both OFs being expendable. Adamczewski. Payne. Lara. Strosnider. Perhaps Pena. All would be ahead of Ragsdale for certain, and probably Frias for another year or two. This is why you deal out of that prospect depth.
  15. Unsure why Ortiz would be in the trade for Castro as he is probably better than Castro?
  16. Would love Soriano and he seems to make a lot of sense as a mid-rotation controllable guy. If Quero or Dinges plus Crow plus a lower level lottery ticket or two could be a real thing, that is dealing straight out of the system's depth in the way it should be utilized.
  17. Unless the new contract messes with that too? Really have concerns the Brewers type of edges are what the next contract is going to attack.
  18. KLaw tends to give player upside & potential heavy weight, with age as a factor. Thinking that way, having Frias being mentioned this early says to me that Keith thinks his ceiling is really high.
