Schwarber calling time is kinda funny. But c'mon, know how many outs there are!

Dare I say Schwarber is starting to look solid at the 1B
Arroyo has been great defensively this series

Yep, Smoltz just said it. Hitters get the advantage the more they see pitchers. 3rd time through the order penalty also applies to 3rd time seen in a series. there is truth to that, but we got limited options. If he is tossing it well, i would rather lose with our best on the mound.

One thing for sure, this game seems to be moving at a glacial pace. Part of that is playing so long with a big lead.

Dare I say Schwarber is starting to look solid at the 1B Arroyo has been great defensively this series Seeing him with so many picks the last few games makes me want to find a trade partner for Dalbec and sign Schwarber for 1B who can then move to DH when Casas is ready.

So I don't *love* using Sawamura in a 1-run game yesterday and Whitlock in a 6-run game today. This is so true and just sad that everyone agrees but Cora. Cora has proven himself enough times that when I'm critical of him, I just start from the assumption that I'm wrong and he's right. Nonetheless, my one consistent pet peeve with him is that he seems to adopt the brainless CW that you can only use your best relievers with a lead, or maybe occasionally when you're tied. But high leverage is still high leverage, even when you're down a run. It certainly would have been interesting if Kiké's home run last night had tied the game rather than merely made it a one-run loss, but thanks to Sawamura it was not to be...

Dare I say Schwarber is starting to look solid at the 1B Arroyo has been great defensively this series If Schwarber becomes a solid defensive 1B, then it makes lots of sense to sign him if we can. Don’t know what that does to Casas, but that bridge can be crossed in the fullness of time. I like Bobby D. but this is baseball, not bean bag.

That Arroyo ground ball was 109.8. He hits the ball really freaking hard for a guy his size. I have hopes for his breakout. (and health)

Good pitch, but a little low. It was borderline, but it made up a little for a few pitches that were incorrect against him recently.
