Going to be interesting to see the explanation after the game.

Although I'm certainly not as hard on Raley as most of you guys. I think he's solid. But no idea why Garcia was already pulled.

80 pitches and 3 hits and he gets pulled.


I'm going to wait to see what the post game says.

"He's young and we are gonna need him later in the season. Don't want him to throw too many pitches. Even though he's young and can handle it..... and I just had 37 year old Greinke throw a complete game 2 nights ago. What was I saying? Oh yeah Straw's speed he will be in lineup tomorrow."

Think Breggy lost some flexibility with the muscle mass gains in the off-season? Certainly not a black hole in the offense but would like to see him heat up. Guess he's traditionally been a slow starter anyways.
They said on the broadcast the other day that he had admitted his swing hadn't felt right since the world series in 2019. Something is off, but I think it pre-dates his bulking up.


I wonder if he tinkers too much sometimes.

The only possible explanation was they wanted to get Raley, Stanek and Pressly some work.

Get one more out and I'll be ok w the pitching change .. but that was not what I would have done

Interesting, challenged him where he was hottest in the zone but still got him. Nice job

Maybe it's that. Will be interesting. For as much as the comments have been about starters going deep into games, it's a little concerning to me they didn't send him back out there and he went back to the clubhouse already.

Only things I could see where it's not injury related is if they had a plan this game to not let him go more than 80ish pitches after coming off a career high last game.

Excellent move by Dusty to bring in Raley there. Really has his hand on the pulse of the pitching staff.

my concern is that they are preparing Luis to go to the bullpen

Yeah I was just predicting that as the rationale. But he should have gotten the 7th. Hopefully it won't matter in the end and we win but with some off days coming up I'd be fine with giving some bullpen guys even more rest given how overworked they've been

The dugout conversations didn't appear like he was injured. He wasn't walking with a trainer out there, he was by himself. Probably just going to get his arm wrapped / iced.

I think Luis threw career high pitches last outing and they wanted to go easy with him today

Man I would hate this. I think he's your #3 guy right now.

That's a decision someone should be fired over.

That's unlike Alvarez to swing at one so far outside the zone

It would be hard to send Garcia to the pen for sure but the one thing that might make sense about it is he can throw strikes.

But he mis-played Bregman's double. He had a lot more warning track than he thought he did. Still, you're right: he's got a gun.

It's good to see. Drove the ball in 3 of his ABs today. Hopefully this is a trend that continues.
