Playoff roster adjustments

Featured Replies

Will there be any changes to roster for the playoffs? I don't think we need 15 pitchers for a 3 game series followed by 2 days off. 
Keep one of Rodon/ Gonzalez off roster for opening round and add a LH bat off the bench. Collins has some pop as a PH and also an emergency 3rd catcher, especially if one of our catchers is DHing.

Gio has shoulder soreness so I can see him being left off the first round.

Mazara should be left off if Leury is indeed on the roster

On second thought maybe we should leave them both off and recall Burdi.

I would leave EE off for Collins or Mercedes but we know that is not happening.

No they wont but its a great thought!

You can leave EE at home too. He reminds me of Yonder Alonso.

EE sucks but he could be useful in a pinch hitting situation maybe. I’d keep him. Zero use for Gio Gonzalez tho.

Ha please specify Gonzalez when you say Gio.

I'll give it a 50% chance that EE is left off . The Renteria quotes sounded like a we are leaving him off speech . You have to have McCann and Grandal playing together and hopefully Eloy in LF .  If Eloy can't play the field that complicates things . If EE is left off we probably do see Collins. I'm more than fine if we need a PH against a lefty that whoever is not playing amongst McCann, Engel and Leury that they are more than adequate . Engel has hit RH just as good if not better than he hit LH this year and as a sub  in 13 AB he has 7 hits which more than likely means he has been our best pinch hitter.

Renteria quotes?

This almost sounds like EE is not going to start. But what do I know?
