The thing is, it’s not even like Varland has been so great. He’s been decent - and that’s being generous

All things considered 1 run in 5.1 innings pitched is more than I can ask for from Scherzer

Good decision there. Max did great. Not sure about Varland being the choice, but Max did his job

I do not understand this at all. What kind of analytics tells Schneider this is the right move?

I have a feeling all those stranded runners are gonna come back to bite us. Feeling an Ohtani bomb here.
