If nothing else, just put up some runs and make Boston use their bullpen up as well

Clank, rice rip King Tuck. Just keep plugging away at'em. Put more stress on them and make this win as costly as possible.

Not sure why you don't pinch hit for Maldy there. We need 6 GD runs and every out is meaningful.

Yeah, Diaz would have been optimal.

Don't we only have 2 catchers on the ALDS roster?

With the amount of pitching changes we might have, I think Maldy is better option with no one on base leading off that inning.

Maybe if we have 2 on I would agree to pinch hit, but it is still only subbing out a .200 hitter for a .280 hitter with several innings remaining behind plate.

I hear that and understand that.

But Maldy is an automatic out essentially and we just made Eovaldi work the previous inning. Maybe a long AB or a hit would have kept some pressure up.

Instead an easy 3 pitch out.

I see the reasoning for keeping him in and don't disagree much, but I also felt like it might have been a chance to roll the dice a bit.

When you're down six with 15 outs to go, the leadoff batter is huge and can disrupt a pitcher's rhythm if he gets on. Crowd gets more into it. I'd much rather take the extra % chance of getting and roll with Castro the rest of the game.

What's even scarier is you can substitute any Astros pitcher name in that sentence and it remains true. Dude is infuego and we gotta minimize his impact

We're on the same page.

Wait you mean if we throw strikes we can get the top of their order out even with our "worst" pitcher?

Good job Taylor. Would have liked to see Odo go longer. Just take good ABs guys!

No fight has left these guys. Might not be able to overcome a horrible start but at least Makin em work for it, can grind their pen a bit. Let's go Stros

Not worried but man that was the opportunity. 9-5 is so much more manageable
