BlackSox13 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Any guesses as to who starts for the Nat's? I'm guessing they'll start Gio and follow up with Roark in relief. Â More importantly, the Nat's need to figure out how to score against Hendricks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarComing25 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 The biggest winners of today are the Dodgers. Lester used for 55 pitches, and you know Scherzer is definitely pitching 2+ innings tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Can anyone tell me why Happ came in on defense for Heyward? Happ didn't bat for Heyward prior to that change, right? Â As much as I was hoping Taylor hit a grand slam, just as satisfying would have been a 3-run triple because Happ screwed up a flyball that Heyward would have caught.

If Davis got out of it Happ hits in 8th and Davis can pitch the 9th. Edited October 12, 2017 by Harry Chappas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxjr27 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Last night at work a guy slammed his hand on the desk and said, the season is over!!! I said, there is one more game to be played. Relax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 (edited) Really wish Eaton was healthy. You gotta figure that Werth would be on the bench if he was. Taylor still would have come up and impressed when Werth when on the dl this season. Edited October 12, 2017 by soxfan2014 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â It made sense as Heyward made last out (the guy who normally gets subbed out in a double switch). Otherwise you would have taken out Russell if you went with the guy before Heyward and they don't seem to like Happ or Zobrist in the middle as Baez and Russell. And the way the team is hitting, I think I'd take Happ's bat over Heywards' defense. I guess maybe they could have went with Zobrist 2 spots ahead?

Â No, no, my last comment was asking whether or not he read the 2nd part of my comment correctly. I understand taking Heyward out now, I didn't realize it was a double switch. I'm just pointing out how satisfying it would have been if Happ screwed up that flyball and a bunch of runs scored because Heyward was subbed out.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 So have the Nats still not announced a starter yet? Should we assume it will be Gio, and then Roark if he sucks, or Scherzer to bridge it to the bullpen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
