With an off day tomorrow at that. Use your better relievers first and hope you score the go ahead run before extra innings.

Yup. No idea why Hyde has so much faith in guys like Burch.

Hope Webb is back sooner than later. 

Any word to ball park it when he may be back?

[Tony-OH]

Burch has now allowed 5 home runs in 18.2 innings with the Orioles.

Ah, yes. And it was that crisp curveball and that middle/middle sweeper that got tattooed. 

So he can’t command due to overwork but his velo is getting swings and misses. Got it.

we will get Webb back, not sure about Coulombe in time for him to get back in pitching shape...we simply must have Grod and Eflin back and dealing to have a chance...we could out Suarez and Povich in the pen...Id give Young a shot in the one too...

Yeah Webb coming back after a rest should help. Webb, Rodriguez, Efflin, Coulombe, Westburg, and Mateo will all help and give us a boost when we get them back.

[LookitsPuck]

Meanwhile, Burch Smith is on this team and Neris isn’t.

Nothing lately. 

[Tony-OH]

Well Neris doesn't throw 99 MPH but he strikes guys out instead of giving up homers.

This game is actually  not over

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

Hader could come in during the eighth inning tonight (if needed) and pitch the ninth after not pitching the last six days.

It ain’t working

[eddie83]

I’ll ask again. Who you throwing there down Dominguez. Cano for 9th. Perez I’m guessing was for 8th. So who?

[LookitsPuck]

Neris would have been a mighty fine upgrade over Burch.

It’s not. But it really doesn’t matter what the pen does when your offense has 2 hits in 7 innings and that has been pretty much the norm the last week plus. 

[Brian88]

Why are they so focused on Joey Votto? This broadcast is terrible
