chw42 Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Lucas at just 70 pitches. Do you take him out after 7 regardless of pitch count or do you keep him in until he's no longer effective? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Robel Garcia is the only position player to have pitched for the Astros this season. He has a 36.00 ERA in his one appearance. Rookies better keep their ears open if he is called in to pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you take him out after 7 regardless of pitch count or do you keep him in until he's no longer effective? Throw him until he’s in trouble or 100+ pitches or the game ends. This kind of dominance without cheating has to be huge for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capn12 Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Gracious, this Gio is muy bueno. Mowing down a big time offensive lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Engel, Mendick and Zavala on the bench. Wouldn't be against putting Mendick at 3B for the rest of the game as well. I'd also get frisky, knowing that Eloy is coming back and will likely see at least some time in LF, I'd switch Goodwin and Vaughn between left and right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
