Why's precious Kevin getting skipped?

Weapon in the bullpen?  Gausman and Brach  in the middle innings?

Possibly?  I dunno.  Gausman has been good for them, not sure why they'd mess with him.

But if true...haha, two contributing members of the worst Orioles season holding it down for the Braves bullpen in a playoff series.

From ESPN:

Quote

 

Atlanta left-hander Sean Newcomb will start Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers with his team on the brink of elimination, the Braves announced Saturday.

Newcomb came within one strike of throwing a no-hitter against the Dodgers at home on July 29.

I was hoping to see Manny go deep off Gausman once or twice. Maybe tomorrow.

Interesting, I would rather see Gausman win that contest.

I don’t know. For some reason, I always love seeing our former position players play well. But I kind of get annoyed when our former pitchers play well.

Maybe it’s just lingering saltiness from Arrieta or something? Maybe it’s just that we’ve enjoyed much better hitting than (starting) pitching over the past ten years...

Still hoping the Braves can win this thing though!

Miley pitched well today.  Maybe it is just our uniform that makes players worse than they are....

There's no tomorrow.

Ah, there's the Kevin Gausman I know and hate.

[Moose Milligan]

Not sure who the announcers are for this broadcast, but they might be OH members.  Lotta excuse making for Gausman here.

 

[Moose Milligan]

Oooooo, struck out Manny!  Blind squirrels find a nut every once in awhile.  

[webbrick2010]

Interesting the Gausman no longer takes his glove above his head to start his windup.

I think he did that on his own this year with the O's (as we don't have a pitching coach), but it looks like Wallace and Chiti got rid of it.

We need to find a real pitching coach for all they young pitchers we are going to have for the next 3 years.

[Moose Milligan]

See ya, Kevin!  

[Chavez Ravine]

Is Brach the only ex-Oriole left that we haven’t seen yet?

I thought the Braves were going to make this a series when they bolted out to a 5-0 lead.

I think their season ends tonight.
