  1. Pads with a two out double that scores two. They’re up 7-5.
  2. I had to look up if the Royals were starting a righty or a lefty today because it’s impossible to tell based on the lineup.
  3. everything Or in Happ’s case, nothing.
  4. Javy with some quality ABs tonight.
  5. Better sweep the Royals. 4-3 or worse in this stretch isn’t good enough.
  6. Not going to have to worry about Wade Davis blowing today’s game at least. Brewers up 6-0 in the 1st.
  7. Happ is a .670 OPS vs lefties this year. Caratini is .574. I don’t think anyone would have minded if they let Happ hit and PH Almora for the pitcher. But like someone else said, he basically picked Caratini to bat over Happ. I guess, but Almora's contact ability is more valuable the earlier you use him there, meaning with less than two outs. Considering how slow he is, I’d almost rather he bat with two outs so he can’t GIDP. None of them seemed like great options there so I tend to go with the higher upside guy. Could very easily have gotten no runs letting Happ bat and using Almora after Willy.

  9. Plus they said Caratini is on deck. Let Happ bat and have Almora PH for the pitcher if it gets there.
  10. Why are we PHing Almora for Happ? That’s an insane decision.
  11. The A’s are pretending it’s 2010 again because they’re giving starts to Trevor Cahill also.
  12. And Thames just walked it off. Wade Davis sucks.
  13. He's still walking over 4 per 9 like last year except his K's are down to 10 per 9. ERA of 4.57, FIP of 3.99. Making $18M next year, $17M in 2020 and has a $15M mutual option in 2021 that becomes a player option with 30 games finished in 2020 and if he's healthy going into 2021.
