Guys new rule. No more Coughman unless he gives up a run. Bro has earned the respect.

Big at bat here.

Little should only pitch in Blowouts. He should be our new Chad Green.


Can we DFA him now?

Just let him walk in the off-season.

I'm inclined to go with Dominquez against the middle- bottom of that lineup.
If we get another run its an easy decision for me.


I’d take Hoffman out so he’s still available tomorrow.


Yep. At some point, you have to start to play the odds that favour winning 2 in a row.

Would that have been much drop-off from IKF at second? I can't think why else they didn't pinch hit there


not from Clement

Then who at third?

Dominguez makes the most sense to me too. No need to make Hoffman throw ~30 pitches in this one, especially if we manage to tack on another run or two here.

They are giving the 9th to Scherzer tomorrow. Book it.

So that was a dangerous all LHB lineup. Hoffman's 805 ops against LHB and he got all 3 out.

So much for all this play the percentage nonsense and let's completely ignore recent stats.

You still should have someone ready in the BP just in case things turn bad.

I don't think Id go Hoffman for the 9th. Fluharty, Dominguez, Fisher. These would be acceptable answers

I want an add on inning so we can respond. This is getting ridiculous.

Well, I would have kept Barger in the game and moved him there if I was doing that. Then, could have stuck Schneider in LF and move Lukes to RF. Alternatively, could have Straw there too. Schneider could play 3rd as well if needed but he hasn't had many innings there.
