[SteveA]

Sure is nice to see a some righthanded pitching after the past 3 days being almost all lefthanded.

Its Cowsers injury a quad injury too? 

 

Some quad injuries I know can take up to 6 weeks to recover from

I thought Cowser was very close to being back?

Santander gets a hit to start it, but can't be bothered to slide into second.

Time for a couple of meaningless runs. 

I'll take 4 meaningless runs followed by one meaningful one.

I think he is. But we all know he won't come up right away

Yes.  He is supposed to be back soon, but I suspect we see Cameron. 

[SteveA]

Guess there could be some future benefit to forcing them to have to use Clase.

McKenna is already here...

Henderson is behind on fastballs and then can’t recognize offspeed. 

[tntoriole]

Great .. what an awful team offensive performance 

[dtk9119]

Awful POS game and now one of our best 2 players out. Miserable holiday weekend.

He needs to follow Grod  to Norfolk . bring up Westburg

[Dunk35]

We need to do something different. The offense is anemic and we just lost our highest OPS player. Our run differential says we aren't this good. Eye test says we are regressing to the mean...

Westburg comes up plays 2b

SS is Gunnar full time

3b Urias 

Mateo to the bench

Fraizer to RF

So you're subbing Westburg for Mateo, and making Santander the full-time DH. That should be an offensive upgrade, though nobody knows how Westburg will do out of the gate, and a defensive downgrade at SS, 2B and maybe RF. Not really an offensive shakeup, but worth a try.

Putting aside a possible IL stint for Mullins, who leaves to create a roster spot for Westburg?
