Braun either looks really good or really bad in most of his ABs. There isn't much in between.
-
Maybe take off for first Santana instead of just standing there waiting for the appeal.
-
Ugg, Grandy. Kratz could have done that.
-
But he's not really 'the' closer, I mean it was Knebel for awhile, Hader has gotten plenty of saves, then it was JJ, then Knebel again. I totally agree with the move as well but it's really been a soft committee for awhile. I think they all buy into the concept and realize they're going to have different roles on different nights.
-
Was afraid of the offense going cold again after the 1st. I hope 5 will be enough.
-
Every once in a while I wonder what would've happened if we didn't include him on the Grienke trade... I'm guessing Kotsay doesn't get a start CF. I'm guessing the trade for Greinke doesn't get done at all if Cain isn't included. Our farm wasn't loaded with attractive pieces, especially after having just unloaded Lawrie. I was surprised we were able to piecemeal enough together to land Greinke at all.
-
I actually like it a lot. I mean, you still have to be able to use him. Using him early means you still have Hader in your back pocket if Jeffress struggles.
-
25 pitches for Knebel. I would bet heavily that he is perfectly good to go for at least an inning tomorrow. He's a workhorse type reliever who frequently goes consecutive days.
-
Just wasn’t thinking ahead enough to have a reliever up. I think by the time it happened it was too late to get someone up. I really hope that's not the case.
-
You have to wonder if Counsell was second guessing himself. They didn't seem to even be sure of what they were going to do.
-
He will be. But on 1.2 innings? Yes. Again, it's Game 7 of the NLCS. To be fair I also don't like it. That was our shot to put this away.
-
Don't like that move at all. Santana could have blown this game open. You've got to have faith in the other guys in your pen.
-
Just because they can doesn’t mean you want that. Tired Hader is pretty bad. I don’t want to see that if we don’t have to. Risky business. Adrenaline is a pretty remarkable thing and will often get you through a situation like that. Ideally you'd like to have Zach Davies get the last 12 outs and go home. But this is a 3 run game in a do or die. Winning today has to outweigh any other potential decision and it's not close.
-
I think I might use Jeffress in the 7th or so tonight. He's been shaky, and if he gets in trouble you can still go to Hader.
-
I'm not going to get on Aguilar too much after he sparked the inital scoring tonight, but that was a pretty terrible AB to a guy who just walked a lefty on 4 pitches and was just as wild to Jesus.
-
Jansen threw like 35 pitches in Game 4 and still went again like 15 hours later in the next game. If we play tomorrow it's a Game 7 with a chance to go to the World Series. Barring them throwing a Guerra like long outing today, their arm falling off or otherwise just physically not being able to go, everyone we want tomorrow is going tomorrow.
-
I think pretty much all of our starters now and going forward are 5 inning guys by design.
-
Those 1-2 fastballs both to Turner and Machado had way too much of the plate for my liking. Glad there was no harm done. Absolutely love the day that Machado is having and loving that we are letting him hear it with every single strike.
-
Dude. Get him out. He's got nothing.
-
Much more mad about the walk than I am about the double.
-
Urias looks pretty sharp. I was hoping to just get the White Flag version of him.
-
Damn, Arcia didn't even get all of that and still almost hit it out. Where is this power surge coming from?
-
Plenty of time to make sure we add a HR or three.
-
What is he supposed to do? The Dodgers don't have to win today, we do. Would be senseless for them to unload their pen at the first sign of damage in the 1st. Yeah, I guess it's arguably too late now. But don't they have a starter in the pen at all? And you or I could hit Ryu today. That seemed apparent as early as the first. I can't speak for your baseball skills, but I'm fairly certain that I myself would still take 3 wild hacks against Ryu today and miss 3 times, spinning myself around and fall down.
