Don't understand how you start lance after the outings he's had since his return from injury

Because you need him to win this thing. Last night showed you can't win the WS with two good starters. Gotta give it a try and hope he is back to form. I was hoping we should have used him last night and Peacock tonight.

Collin McHugh was very good out of the pen last night. 4 hitless innings and he saved the bullpen. Really wish he could have started.

Lance starting tomorrow...
We own Gray on top of that. I like our chances tomorrow.
This is the question I've pondered, too. I'm assuming Keuchel will go in game 5. Then go JV in Game 6. If we get to game 7, it's Mr. Fullstaff.03_Aggie said:Buck Compton said:Lance for 3-4, Peacock for 3-4, Musgrove, Devo, and Giles to close it out.bearkatag15 said:

If they're starting Lance don't you think they are saving Peacock for game 5 or 6? While I'd certainly like to end this thing in 5, who do you throw if it goes 7 and you used keuchel and Verlander in games 5&6? Trot out Morton on short rest?
Wouldn't DK be going on short rest if he pitched today?Ag_07 said:
Would it have been absurd to throw Keuchel today and Lance tomorrow so as to have Keuchel available in Gm 7 on short rest if needed?
Honestly I don't see it going to 7 anyways.
Lance hasn't thrown six innings since before the all-star break, and he's only thrown five once (and he got mashed.)TREX01 said:
If there is one guy available who has the ability to come out and throw 5-6 dominant innings, its Lance.

I honestly can't believe McCullers is going today unless the thinking is that Peacock is just better out of the pen for some reason.
It would be a ballsy move for Hinch to go with DK on short rest tonight. However, if he did and we lost, he'd still have DK to go (on 3 days rest) if we go to a game 7. Pitch him game 5 and he is essentially done for the series.Ag_07 said:
Yeah he last pitched on Friday.
Was just a thought that maybe short rest Dallas in Gm 4 and Gm 7 is better than full rest Dallas for just Gm 5.

CC would be on full rest (4 days) if this goes to a game 7.....Ag_07 said:bobinator said:Quote:

I think this is absolutely the case.
Lance has already come out and said that he really didn't feel comfortable coming out of the pen and it's something that he's had a tough time adjusting to.
With all this said I 100% want McCann back there tonight. I trust him to keep Lance cooled off and work him through the game.
And if this does indeed go to 7 how is the Yankee rotation setting up? Assume they'd CC on short rest?
This comes up every few pages, but the only absolute for me in this series is that you don't mess with Keuchel or Verlander's rotation.Wabs said:It would be a ballsy move for Hinch to go with DK on short rest tonight.

I just don't love the idea of running out a starter that hasn't thrown more than three good innings in several months.
titanmaster_race said:
Yup. I feel much better about today than I did yesterday.
Plus, these dudes absolutely mash in day games...Against RHP...Who's last name is Gray.
It appeared to me that Harris shook off Gattis and wanted to throw the fastball. Mistake....Frok said:
I think McCann should be catching moving forward. Slot Gattis in at DH here and there. I'm thinking that stoopid fastball to Judge doesn't happen last night if McCann is behind the plate.
