Not a chance.

Yeah Dylan won't be starting any playoff games. Games 4s will have to be bullpen days.

Or this.

He would have been thrown out at third. Super slow.

We are just happy to be leading the division. No concern about HFA.

Cleveland is gonna do us another favor tonight.

Cleveland is going to lose. Getting dicked down again by the Astros. Let's finish this one off.

Calling up Zavala was fine but keeping him and Collins as the two catchers ain't it.

Didn't he get hit?

I think 150 or 160.

When he sucks early next year he is there for sure. Or he can retire.

No it won't. He will be bull penned next year to void the 4th year.

The problem with playing Eloy in left is he will always try to prove the doubters wrong. Which is how he was hurt to begin with. I'd rather he let a ball drop than dive or jump for it. Which means he needs to DH.

I think it would make decent sense. You can give him 1 at bat per game to ease him in. They may also want to get him some experience playing LF in Milwaukee and to face their pitching, in case we see them in the WS. I'd call him up Monday but that may be their rationale.

I would keep Hamilton and Sheets and drop Goodwin. Goodwin is a decent option as a pinch hitter on the road in the WS replacing pitchers. But Hamilton is more valuable because he can pinch run anytime and replace Vaughn in left in games we are protecting a lead at the end. Hamilton, Robert, and Engel to close games defensively in the field would be awesome. Of course it would be games where we had a two or three run lead. Goodwin is fine as a 4th OF but how often would he be used in the playoffs prior to the World Series if we are healthy?

Have fun.

That helps alot.

Goodwin will turn into a pumpkin soon. Hamilton has elite speed and defense. He is also a spark plug full of energy.

Sure is.

Haha yeah right. Berrios is coming out for 7th.

We seem to be very content with just winning the division. If any team needs HFA in the playoffs it is us. Cannot expect to win a WS playing on the road for games 1,5, and 7 each round. Can't just hand games aways.

We have 5 guys that don't belong in a lineup. You are gonna have the ocassional good time, but mostly struggles when regression hits.

Luis Robert is head to WS Wednesday.

The timing is definitely peculiar. They probably know this DH is gonna go sideways.
