Probably just an attempt at taking no chances and going with the 7, 8, and 9th inning pitchers to close it out.

 

Let Ashby leave feeling good about himself and get some work for Williams and Boxberger, who haven’t pitched for a few days, and Hader who is returning from his Covid break with only 1 mop up inning.

 

Is it still a requirement in a 7 inning game for the starter to go 5 innings to get the win?

I think so but not sure…….maybe they cut it to 4?

If I had to pick young players off of teams to build an MLB roster for the next 5 years Reynolds would be right near the top of my list.

 

Cain and JBJ for Reynolds. Get it done Stearns.

"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

Imagine the Pirates lineup with Reynolds, Frazier, Hayes, Meadows, etc. They have really traded away some talent over the years. What a sad organization.

Avi put in the work this off-season and it has paid off for him.
