I knew he was bad, but I didn't know it was .120/.283/.293 Yeah, but his last atbat looked good.

There is no legitimate argument that Lynn wasnt starting game 1 or 2. It just wasnt happening. Yes, but look at his home/road splits vs the Astros. It wasn't reasonable to think starting him at Houston would produce any different result than what we got. There's no reason it couldn't have gone Giolito/Rodon/Lynn/Cease and have Kopech and Lopez to back up Rodon. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to fly in from Florida and can’t book on a moments notice! Yup.  I’m actually in Vegas on Sunday, but plan to fly into Chicago if the timing works rather than fly home to Chicago.  Just got to hope we win tomorrow so we can plan accordingly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open or closed, Grandal's hit wouldn't have been a homer in any stadium except maybe Coors. He hit it hard, but not hard enough to hit it out with a 20 degree launch angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjusttyped Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 The Astros using Graveman and Pressly is the smallest possible win in a nightmare of a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can make that trade when the other team isn't in the opposing dugout. IIRC, they had also just came back against them the night before. Just really bad timing. I agree with you. That was the Mariners first move of the trade deadline, too. If they dealt Graveman *after* acquiring Castillo and Tyler Anderson then the reaction to that trade would have been a lot different.
