Guy who made the last game thread didn't the want the smoke with a Davis "Dogshit" Martin gamethread.

Nah nah nah you aren’t gonna try and make this like you are diving on a grenade

And now our dogshit lefty lineup has to score 5+ runs

Without Mune too. Good luck.

Why wouldn’t you use an opener for him? Anyways, time to remove him from rotation rest of the way.

I think a phantom IL visit makes some sense

Inflamed ERA is a real thing

Nice start Chase!

Why didn't they think of this already?

Think he's earned a bit of rope but I think they can't wait for him to figure it out right now. Willing to give him a few more innings to at least work through it. But yeah, this is really bad right now. Looks like he had no confidence.

Chase is bank

went still winning this game though…book it!

No way, he’s pitching them out of games in the first inning.

Go Guardians

Abbott is a good matchup for us due to the amount of walks he issues.

Get Grichuk in and we’re right back in this thing

Can Fedde pitch today? He was throwing really well before getting sent to the bullpen. He's a better option than Martin currently.

Davis Martin....22 earned runs in last 4 starts...17 of those runs in the 1st inning

Yeah I’m sure he will be the long guy. Richards and McDougal as well.

Feels there is a pre-game prep / warm-up element at least contributing to the recent suckiness

I think they should use an opener in the next start. But today he's earned the right to work through it for another inning or 2

Damn Meidroth is making me change my mind about him.

Not sure why Braden is batting clean up against a lefty

Bad at-bat for Braden

Why are they hitting Braden cleanup when he can't hit lefties?

On no planet should Braden be batting 4th against a LHP.

Still don’t get why he gets so much playing time

Very bizarre

Would've been nice to get that 2nd run in there.
