    Os playing with house money today.  Going into this weekend would have have been thrilled with 2 of 3 games.  The Voth Verlander matchup is the worst of the series.  

    With the off day Monday I hope that Hyde fully rests Adley (no DH) let him get 2 days off. Also if the game as close late you can always have Adley PH for Chirinos.  

    Play Nevin at 1B and and sit Mountcastle, he’s still not hitting and he’s not squaring up Verlander.   Santander needs to be in the lineup as does Hays, Mullins DH’d last night.   Start Stowers and Vavra.  This leaves Adley, Odor, Mountcastle and McKenna on the bench. 
     

     

    With off day tomorrow 8-29-22, why do we need to rest players today 8-28-22 with Verlander pitching and wild card at stake?

    How the &$%# do you pitch to him with first base open? That’s about the dumbest move Hyde has made since joining the team. 

    Very simple answer:  Pride. Lyles felt he is a much superior pitcher than Arozarena is a hitter.  Earl Weaver believed never let their best hitter beat you. Walk him pitch to the next hitter.
