This is worth a pitching change. He's not going to swing.
-
Alright, good hitters, this is your last chance before the bullpen.
-
That seems silly to have the contact play on with the middle of your order due up.
-
Remember when Heyward hit an oppo dong off God Mode Arrieta?
-
This lineup is going to eat Jake alive by not swinging.
-
Can we re-do that last pitch to Taylor in a 2-2 count instead of 3-1
-
We've had a lead in all 3 games that has lasted a combined 30 seconds. Honest to goodness didn't know Ethier was still playing baseball for a living
-
Huh, so I guess the Dodgers do have the tactical advantage
-
Does he? In the playoffs, I thought he did
-
OK, I get not starting Wade with the bottom of the order, but now is his time. C'mon Joe, you know better
-
Well, unless I missed a double switch, at least Jansen is done if this game continues.
-
There isn't a patch to victory until Jansen is done. Make him work and don't let him throw multiple innings.
-
With the off day tomorrow, it's a lock we'll get CJ, Strop, and Wade.
-
Innings 6-8 will be fun
-
Our bullpen isn’t “that bad”
-
God I feel like we match up pretty well everywhere else except the bullpen. That's pretty damn glaring though.
-
We saw Lackey start against the Dodger A lineup(mostly, Turner didn't play) already once this year, he wouldn't have made it through 4 unless we just punted the game wholesale. Eh, one game doesn't mean much, at least no more than his very good Sep. It may even be a semi punt, but we're only winning this series with deep starts from Q, Lester, and Hendricks - those three handing the ball to maybe one reliever, like Strop, in between Wade. Short rest brings all of these other idiots into the equation to ruin the starters' otherwise effective 5-6 innings.
-
horsefeathers. The bullpen just isn't built to withstand short starts by our best SPs. And it would be really surprising if Lester could go more than 6 tomorrow. I'm with Jersey; Lackey should've grazed on these innings tonight.
-
I would guess Rondon/Strop/CJ, with Montgomery and Duensing as possibilities depending on if you might get a few LH in short succession. Did Joe say anything about Wade's availability? Jesse Rogers said Joe wouldn't say either way
-
So if Wade is unavailable, or if we need to use more than him and Strop, who does Maddon have more faith in - CJ or Rondon?
-
Their LH relievers suck I'm pretty sure that's not true.
-
Man I'd be tempted to put Heyward in now. Kyle's not gonna face a righty in an important spot anyway
-
YEAH JEETS
-
No, Ron Darling, Almora is not the one who messed up there
-
Oh damn, that was sooooo close to getting by Kershaw
