Nice efficient inning from Chacin there. I hope they try to get 5 out of him. Not sure who else they'd go to for a multi-inning relief appearance.

Isn’t Freddy Peralta lined up for a multi-inning outing tonight? Maybe they save him for later in the series, but I was under the impression he may pitch some innings today.

Not just “at Night” anymore.

Yeah, good point. I forgot that he was shuffled back to the pen.

 

Sure enough ... he's warming in the pen as we speak. But with the double play, I think I still let Chacin go 5

Yo Aguilar I am glad you got a hit and all, but swinging at a 3-0 pitch ball is not the most brilliant AB.

 

Agreed. Had it been a meatball that he crushed, then great...but it was probably ball 4...and he put a nice swing on it had the count been 1-2 or something like that. I call it a wash. Still, he's yet to make an out tonight ;)

You know how some of us thought we were going to continue to blur the lines between starter and reliever, heavily use middle relief, piggyback, build on what we did in the playoffs last year, etc?

 

We might as well just go ahead and do that. None of our starters can make it through 5 anyway.

Shaw will be leading off in the 6th ... yay? Against a lefty, too.

Well if they have any better options for that sort of situation let me Hiura it?

 

 

speechless :tired

Having three lefties on the bench is not ideal. I won't drone on about the roster management of this organization but man.

 

Agreed, I said this when we acquired Gamel. Not that Gamel isn't a good fit, but the roster construction here makes for some awkward and bad matchups late.

 

Hiura will be back up soon, but not for the bench. They have Dubon and Saladino both tearing up AAA and would probably be quite useful off the bench.

 

With that said the flip side is that we don't have a Sogard or Nick Franklin on this roster like most years.

Good point.

Doesn't help that a good number of the righthanded bats currently on the roster either aren't any good or are prone to prolonged slumps, too.
