Schweitzer becoming a nice option out of the pen. 2.91 ERA

Being a reliable guy when you're pitching with a big lead is very nice to have. So many times in the past, we don't have guys who just throw strikes and eat innings when we have a big lead.

Peters has hit the ball well a couple of times.

4-1!

Kepler just ended the inning unfortunately.

Peters hit the ball hard the last few times, maybe he’s coming out of it.

He's got an Eloy problem. Way too much pulling the ball on the ground.

Yup

That's 1 Earned Run in the last 24 innings for this staff against the top 2 AL teams

Peters has hit the ball hard, no luck but I like what I see

Schwitzer has been amazing!

Looks like Richards has the 9th.

They definitely rushed him up

Yup…definitely had more work to do in AAA. At least he’s been productive despite this shortfall.

How can you come up with this, after coming up with the worst nickname in history — Chairman of the Board?

It's a fantastic nickname, thank you very much. I learned from the great nickname king - @ChiliIrishHammock24 .

Sam's relative posts here. He's going to ask Sam what he thinks of the nickname. I bet Sam will like it.

Grow a pair Chase. Charge the mound.

Are the Diamondbacks still using Sewald to close? If so, that Cleveland game isn't over.

Nah, he's a 90 wrC+ guy that chips in enough to be a 2 WAR starter right now. That's all we needed in RF.

I still think they rushed him. He had a serious groundball issue in AAA and that hasn’t changed in the majors yet. Obviously the team needed an upgrade and he has been productive despite that shortcoming.

Taylor Walls might be the best fielding SS in the league but the guy just can’t hit.

Good that the back end of the pen got the night off. They have to cover 7 innings tomorrow.

Yeah, I hope he's able the make the necessary adjustments in the majors. Would have been nice to work on that groundball rate in AAA.

rays broadcast said 4seam on the pitch type

2 seamer will move a lot more, 4 seamer pretty straight as a rule.

Do we really have to start Noah tomorrow

I mean that’s what the offseason is for. Hes doing what we needed and may very well change these last two months. Nothing changes if he has 40 more games in the minors

I am not sure how the Rays are so good just looking at the stats but they do a lot of things right

Richards needs to bean somebody in retaliation for Chase getting hit.

I would like to try and do an opener for him and see how that works
