Can any of our nerves handle Kimbrel?3 more outs. @WestSideLion, can your nerves handle Kimbrel in the 9th?
No style points necessary in these games.Closer than it should have been but I'll take it
First one at home is huge.Congrats boys on your way
LA said he was losing a little speed off his fastball in his last inning. Topper did the right thing taking him out.Nice win but this bullpen is a real high-wire act with all of the walks. Last year's bullpen seemed to have things more under control in the playoffs. Dominguez was a big part of that last year.
Strange how Wheeler has been lights out for 6 innings but then really struggles. Even one less inning from the pen would be good.
No. Even my wife was cursing in the 9th. That called second strike changed the game. Double play came on 3-2. Kimbrel lives on a razor’s edge.3 more outs. @WestSideLion, can your nerves handle Kimbrel in the 9th?
You do this 100 times out of 100.LA said he was losing a little speed off his fastball in his last inning. Topper did the right thing taking him out.
LA and Scott had some interesting conversations about the six day time lag between starts for the last month of the season and how it wasn't popular with the starters, but appears to be paying dividends now. Also talked about how moving Castellanos down to 7 has been great for the bottom third of the order despite Casty not being happy with it initially.You do this 100 times out of 100.
