Flaherty vs. Cecconi...Flaherty has certainly been there in postseason, including key outings for LAD last year.

0/7 risp Eventually Cease will blink.

OHearn actually has pretty good numbers vs. lefties. Iglesias with ops in 500 pher over Johnson...who will go in on defense.

Pretty sure in CLE tmrw.

Even when they get hits can't get runners over to third.

Ofc another Naylor lol

Even if SD wins their pen is going to be toast and Darvish, King Jr. and Vasquez aren't great options. King Jr. would be choice if he hadn't missed 3+ months and just come back recently. Darvish the most experienced obviously.

CLE 1/1 with RISP lol

Tatis Machado and Arraez have to carry this team...dead in the water without them (and Laureano). Feels like 2000 Sox series against Seattle...just not getting the key hits with runners on base.

Roccio have yourself a final week plus

Tatis needed to move the runner to third... Machado in a funk now. For about a month. Bad timing for that.

SD and Detroit having RISP problems. Cleveland can't hit at all. No way you let Ramirez beat you.

https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/team.cgi?id=19343131 Who would you choose from their putrid minor league system? That's going to replace their best second half hitter in Laureano?

Cease pitching well...Machado needs to come alive, or Bogaerts.

CLE has a better excuse for 26,000 since that home date wasn't known until hours in advance AND it was an earlier day game on a work day. Other three sites were far easier ticket sells with NY and LA starting at night.

Is Clevinger officially gone yet? Except for that coaching staff possibility lol. Maybe he just really loves Chicago...

Oops...saw that happen recently against SD where Arraez was thrown out at second trying to stretch for a double by the OFer for a third out while slow catcher scoring almost stopped and was barely out by one step at home. Doesn't happen very often.

Maybe he'll do the same thing Snell did last night...but not very likely.

That's a marginal out reversal call that just might have shifted the series. At least there's not an open rebellion against MLB umpires/refs like in the WNBA.

Going with what got them there... Not going to change, at least Schildt is consistent.

If it's not former players, there's also coaches like Joey Cora in DET lol.

Retoolings, whatever you want. Maybe slightly more dramatic when they moved on from a host of All-Stars in the 90s/early 2000s compared to the past 10-15 years or so.

Montgomery was never going to get an opportunity in that outfield...Teel maybe, eventually, but not over Narvaez in 2025. Missing WS rings...?? Maybe Kyle but still think the Mariners or Dodgers win.

Jacobs Field had the longest consecutive sellout mark in the 90s, yes? 4-5 full rebuilds later...here they still are, but fans must be getting sick of it all. First trading Naylor and Bieber, next will be Kwan.

Dodgers' first championship this era doesn't count? Abreu's MVP?
