  1. Pedro Strop. Pitch your best pitcher in the biggest AB of the game.
  2. The key is that Joe won't be able to use Duensing in mid-game key matchups against LHB You were saying?
  3. The Rizzo gaffe never happens if they make the LaStella call correctly, to be fair.
  4. Load the bases for the 16.4% walk guy. Ok. God this umpiring is an embarrassment.
  5. Quintana has a 3.66 ERA since the 4/14 game against Atlanta where it was 34 degrees and sleeting the whole time. And a 4.66 FIP Right but you were talking about giving up runs.

  7. Thats true, Zobrist is in a nice stretch too You dudes have a HUGE Contreras-shaped blind spot. The best third baseman in baseball says hello too.
  8. Like, there's just no possible way to ever justify Heyward and Almora hitting back to back, unless it's 7 and 8.
  9. If Washington comes back and wins the division, a 20 game winner Max Scherzer would probably get a lot of momentum.
  10. Career high in O-zone (outside of the zone) swing % at 48.7%, which is second in baseball (Sal Perez in first, Almora is in 8th), so probably more perception than reality. His zone swing % is way up though, at 80.4% (career 70.7%), so maybe it's more a matter of not letting good pitches go by. Third in baseball for that, behind Freeman and Albies. Looking at pitch types, he's murdering fastballs, but he's been a plus against them for the last few years. The big change seems to be against curveballs, had never been a positive pitch for him and now he's killing those too. To your point, maybe there have been less swings on curves that bounce in front of the plate.
  11. Come October vs LHP Bryant/Almora/Heyward Bote/Russell/Baez/Rizzo vs RHP Schwarber/Happ/Heyward Bryant/Baez/Zobrist/Rizzo
  12. It seems unlikely We would just need to hold off everyone else in the wild card chase. From what I recall, we're pretty good at one game playoffs in Pittsburgh.
  13. Agreed. Either one of them would have been the mop up man. Rosario can get more innings to see if he can turn into something, Duensing gets a month to see if he has anything left.
  14. Joe must have sobered up in anticipation for Wine Wednesday tonight. [tweet] [/tweet]
  15. Nick Kingham wOBA v LHH: .377 wOBA v RHH: .277 Zobrist Heyward Rizzo Schwarber Baez Happ Contreras Bote Almora: Locked in the video room watching Felipe Vazquez videos.
  16. Post trade Verlander >>> Pre trade Verlander >>> Current version of Cole Hamels. No one is expecting a 1.06 ERA down the stretch, but if Hamels could drop his ERA by 2.7 runs, I think everyone would appreciate it. Mostly because it would bother you: Hamels xFIP: 4.18 Verlander 2017 Tigers xFIP: 4.41
  17. i had forgotten just how bad he was last year, wow 4.15 HR/9, unbelievable.
