Nice to see Means right the ship a bit. His ERA is still not good at 6.58, but his WHIP is a very respectable 1.23 (finished 2019 at 1.14). If he can get his ERA in the high 4s by year end, that would be amazing, considering how much of an impact that first game against the Yanks undoubtedly has.

It would not be that hard to do, considering how few innings he’s thrown (26).    Assume he gets four more starts and throws 22 IP (5.5/game).    If he allowed 7 ER in that span (2.86 ERA for those four games), that would take his ERA to  4.88.    Difficult, but not impossible.

There are 19 days left in the season including today.  To get 4 more starts he's have to go on 3 days rest once.

Oops, you’re right.   It would be very tough to get his ERA under 5 in 3 starts.    He’d have to allow a total of 4 ER or less over the three starts to have a shot.

But he's lined up for our first playoff game in Oakland!

Welp, with yesterday's performance (6 IP; 1 ER), he's cut his ERA down to 5.63 with a 1.19 WHIP. 

If he were to have the same outing next turn through the order, he would cut into the high 4's (4.97 ERA), assuming I didn't botch the math.

That was an ass whipping.  Complete joy in seeing Stewart and Mountcastle go back to back.

Also, Iglesias' homer...jeez, that was crushed.  I didn't expect him to ever get around on a pitch like that.  He looked like a pure power hitter on that one.

Yea, I assumed that was Mountcastle when I first saw it (was doing other stuff with game in background)

Another great outing. Seriously, a one hitter with 1.5 K/inning. He’s had a couple of bad innings but overall he looks even more “for real” than he did last year.
