Definitely would rather see him in the OF than Eloy or Mazara (especially if it's true that Eloy may only be available to DH).

I love him in the 9 spot but if you have a struggling Moncada, I'm not opposed to hitting him in the 2-spot. Yoan has been better of late though.

Need Eloy in the lineup and if Garcia is ready to go, he's gotta be out there over Mazara.

Yeah just started looking into it. Probably Bassitt for game 2. Luzardo, Manea (lefties) or Fiers could go game 1.

Previous 3 Oakland starters from this weekend: Friday: Bassitt Saturday: Minor (doubt this guy would have gotten a start anyway) Sunday: Montas

Why? If I'm Oakland, I'm not going with any lefties this series until game 3.

This is how I rank it.

Honestly, I'd get them both in there and sit Mazara.

Agreed

As much as I don't want him back next year (at the moment), I'm not sure this is guaranteed.

Makes sense that a young guy like Madrigal needs to sit what feels like once a week in a short season....

Pretty sure I read somewhere last week that said if you're in the pool of 60 players, you're post-season eligible. It's a weird year. Also explains why Vaughn is eligible. It's a weird year so regular rules don't apply.

You are correct. My bad.

Whoops my bad. Been really busy with work I completely missed that. Thanks.

The pen is starting to get crowded. Gotta imagine when Marshall comes back, he replaces Stiever.

What do you mean exactly?

Activate him tomorrow and then get him in for an inning Friday and Sunday.

Thank you expanded playoffs.

Yeah why would anyone want to wear this lol World Series champ hat or none at all.

lol yep.

True but I'm a fan of McCann in the lineup and the only way that happens is if Edwin sits. Edit: unless of course Grandal is out like tonight.

Really need to shake this lineup up. Hit Robert 9th and let him go catch everything in the outfield, bat Madrigal 2nd, shoot Edwin into space, etc.

Robert has no confidence right now.

Give me the lesser pitching for sure.

Man I don't want to face Cleveland in the playoffs. Kind of hoping for Astros or Jays and hoping Cleveland just gets knocked out first series.
