If we've faced him three times, you'd think we'd have some plan against him. This is our 3rd time thru the order and we've got -0- results.

I agree. This is frustrating.

Dude's been painting the corners and getting calls off the plate. Stros still have 4 hits off him--more than the Rags have. Walks and timely hitting.....

I'm not saying it isn't frustrating. Kyle got a little wild in the inning of Chas' first AB and he goes out and helps him by swinging at 3 straight pitches.

I imagine that's what the A's, Angels, Mariners, and Rangers have said since 2017 with Justin Verlander.

I'm just saying other teams are allowed to have good pitchers and we are allowed to bad against them.

Better hope Gibson is traded to an NL contender and not an AL contender

Honestly this inning is on Dusty. Should have never brought LMC back out there.


But why?


Off rehab start. They were getting to him last inning. They're third time through the lineup. What else you need?


A better reason. He gave up one hard hit ball.

He threw 64 in rehab and wanted to get into the 80s today.

I didn't see anyone saying that until they saw the after the fact.

He can "want" to go 80 pitches all he wants. And honestly I'm glad he's a gamer like that. It's Dusty's job to win the game, though.

You guys crack me up. If Odo wasn't ready because they were getting him started for him to come into the 6th, that means Dusty would have had to bring in the bullpen, and you guys hate using the bullpen. You'd say Dusty didn't want to win by bringing in the bullpen.

Odo was warming in the 4th along with Javier. Should have started the 5th.

The reason Dusty went to the bullpen is likely because he wanted Odo to come in with a fresh start of an inning. He's a starter and it's used to that. Taylor was brought in to deal with a troublesome situation.

But what if he wasn't ready to start the 5th? Warming up as a reliever isn't normal for him.

Then I guess you'd be right. But I think Odo should have been ready. The plan was for LMC to go 5. IMO he shouldn't have but looks like Dusty sticks with the plan, win or lose.
