At this point Mancini is a liability. Dusty needs to change the DH. This is horsesheet

I do wonder if he'll switch it up and put Diaz in LF for G2 and Yordan as DH.

Nope, dusty will just give Yuli a day off and play Mancini at first

Three runs against a bullpen that can snap off some decent sliders? I got some bad news.

Eh, if it ends up being 6-5 or something like that, I honestly won't feel as bad. I think Framber can match up with Castillo and we can take that game.

Then I think LMJ wins the match up against Ray.

I'd like to come back, but it's not completely necessary.

Either works. Probably be best to put Aledmys in left.

You mean it's hard to score 3 runs off a really good bullpen???

Those were great ABs by Bregman, Tucker, Yuli. 2 ropes and an infield single. So close to scoring 2 there.

That's what I want from them the rest of this game. Put up good ABs against their bullpen and see a lot of pitches. Will pay off in later games.

I'm worried we caught a red hot team at the wrong time. To state the obvious.

That's what we said against Tampa Bay in the 2020 ALCS.

I'll only say that if the other two higher seeds perform badly today.

Today, for us, was just JV being really bad. Don't give up 6 runs through 4 innings and this is a game.

Get his feet wet in the postseason? Keep in mind we don't play again until Thursday.

That's what we said against Tampa Bay in the 2020 ALCS.

And we took basically a bullpen team to Game 7 after being down 3-1 with no ACE on our staff.

One pitcher not elite today. He didn't have to be elite either. He needed to just be good.

Agreed, we've gotten some good AB's today.

Agree while the Astros have not been great at the plate so that maybe a little rust but overall not bad. JV on the other hand this pretty much his normal rest.
