    Are we calling up the wrong guys, or do we just have guys that only do well in the minors? On the farm, today, after our teams went 5-0, yesterday. Woo wins 2-1 Hart 6IP 2H 1ER 2BB 5K Feltman & Ort 3 IP 1H 0ER 0BB 3 K Meneses 3-3 with 2B & BB Ockimey 2-4 w RBI POR- 2 games cancelled GRE loses 8-0 Nothing to report except Howlett went 1-3.

    It's a miracle we were in it until the 9th, but we did waste scoring opportunities in all 9 innings.

    After winning 13 in a row, the Yanks have gone 2-6. The worst I can come up with on the Rays is 2-3 in last 5. OAK is in freefall going 4-10 in their last 14 & 6-14 in last 20. On the flip side... SEA is about to win 5 straight and 6 of 7. TOR has won 4 straight and 7 of 8. BOS has won 7 of 11 and 9 of 14.

    Arroyo should be due back, too.
  5. moonslav59
    They yanked him in the August 31st game, so assuming he has passed all subsequent protocols, September 9th? (Maybe the 10th?) Arroyo's last game was 8/26. He must be real close.
  6. moonslav59
    Lots of chances: 1st: 2 on 1 out Dugo lines out/ Plawecki grounds out 2nd: 2nd and 3rd and 0 outs Lopez K, Arauz fly out, Schwarbs ground out 3rd: man on 1st 1 out and 2nd with 2 out Plawecki fly out 4th: 2nd and 3rd and 1 out Arauz fly out/ Schwarbs Ks 5th: After JD's double & Plawecki's rbi single- 2nd & 3rd 2 out Dalbec flies out 6th: After JD's 2 run HR, Verdugo 2Bs - 1 out Plawecki & Sahe ground out. 7th: Motter walks with 1 out and gets picked off 8th: Renfroe singles with 1 out JD & Verdugo ground out 9th: Plawecki lead off single 1-2-3 outs Every inning, we had opportunities lost.

    That would be great to see the Yanks and Toronto have to play-in for the WC game vs the Rays... errr, I mean the Sox.
  8. moonslav59
    While true, we haven't really had many classic one inning save opportunities where we are up 1 or 2. We've needed 2-3 inning saves or someone to come into the 9th with a 3 or 4 run lead and not blow it.
  9. moonslav59
    That's what I wanted to hear!
  10. moonslav59
    We have 4 naturally scheduled days off coming up, soon. I agree. No extra days off for anyone from here on out. As far as I acn see, we'd only need the 5th starter twice the rest of the way. That might give us the edge we need by using just Sale, ERod, Eovaldi and Houck for almost every remaining game and having Pivetta in the pen, when he returns and is not starting those 2 games.
  11. moonslav59
    TOR looks like the easiest schedule, but they have very few days off. 2 days off, but one double header. We have 4 days off and no double headers.
  12. moonslav59
    Indeed, especially if TOR beats the hell out of 'em.
  13. moonslav59
    We are the tipping point on COVID. One more key player, and we could be toast. I'm hopeful the rest will bring back a better Bogey- wrist healed and all. We have a lot of days off in the middle of September. We need to stay focused, play our best players and stop this 6th starter thing. I'd try Seabold in Pivetta's slot, but no promises we do any better than what we just tried. Maybe we don't need a 5th starter until SEA. Sale TBR ERod TBR Eovaldi TBR off Houck @CWS (+1 day rest) Sale @CWS ERod @CWS Eovaldi @SEA Seabold or Pivetta @SEA (this is past 10 days) Houck @SEA off Sale + 1 v BAL ERod + 1 v BAL Eovaldi +1 v BAL off Houck +1 vNYM Sale v NYM off ERod +1 v NYY Eovaldi +1 NYY Houck v NYY off Sale @Bal ERod @BAL Eovaldi @BAL Houck @ WSH Pivetta @WSH Sale @WSH ERod WC game

    TOR still has 7 games with the Twins and 7 with the O's, but the rest is very tough: 7 NYY 6 TBR They start an 8 game road trip tomorrow at NYY for 4 then 4 at BAL.
  15. moonslav59
    It's like you want it to happen, too.
  16. moonslav59
    Yanks lose.
  17. moonslav59
    Not far from the truth. 6.9 BB/0 (career 7.4) 6.6 H/9 (career 7.1) 12.2 K/9 (career 14.4!) The Ks and low hits per inning save his ass.
  18. moonslav59
    It's kind of amazing we were in this game until the 9th with Plawecki batting 5th and Shaw 6th, plus a couple clowns at middle infield. That's not even looking at who we pitched.
  19. moonslav59
    Good news. Hard to know, if he's at 100%, and even at 100% he walks 7 guys per 9.
  20. moonslav59
    Golden opportunity to gain on the Yanks and Rays. This really sucks!
  21. moonslav59
    Now, it looks obvious. At the time, I do not think it's a clear choice, no. Valdez has not been bad, and he only threw 22 pitches, yesterday. Hell, Ottavino throws that to 2 batters,
  22. moonslav59
    Way too many. It seems like the same pattern keeps happening. A guy like Dalbec gets two nice hits and is stranded, then whe he gets up with men is scoring position he strands them. I'm not blaming Dalbec, but my point stands. Before that we'd see 3 solo HRs in a game.
  23. moonslav59
    Actually one good-one bad is better than all our RP'ers not named Whitlock & Richards.
  24. moonslav59
    It's too many lose-lose choices Cora has to make. It's actually amazing how many lose-lose choices he made, today that actually worked, and then when the last one fails, it's all on Cora.
  25. moonslav59
    What best relievers? There is only one: Whitlock. Sure, he could have brought him in down 1, but that is certainly not the clear call, until after you see Valdez implode.
