    Miley is about to go 4 innings here. Don’t know what the scores going to be but he’s the man.

    The Astros have a combined 5 pitchers between bullpen and starters that we can trust to have a 1-2-3 inning.

    It will be interesting to see if the Astros bats wake up after this. I mean...the pressure is off in this game at this point.

    Twins better win a game. I mean seriously how many 100 win teams get swept out of the postseason?

    I've got a bad feeling this series is going to come back to MMP for game 5. I hope I'm wrong, but the idea of playing in St. Pete (when we've historically never played well there) is why I preferred playing the A's instead of the Rays.

    If nothing else, this let them test Rondon and Miley for future playoff appearances. At this point, I'd much rather have Abreu and Peacock out there.

    I'd still love to see the bats wake up next inning and make a game out of this. This team is always capable of a 4-run or 5-run inning.

    I think Hinch could see the writing on the wall. Maybe the bats finally wake up tomorrow.

    Miley needs to finish this game since we don’t have Travis White anymore. Take one for the team! Save the other arms for another day...

    The minute Miley came in Hinch conceded this game. Have a problem with that especially in the playoffs.

    Maybe, the Ray's have an excellent staff. A tough play-off match up to get. A's or Twins were preferable.

    Feels like all the runs have come with 2 outs.

    Must've been those starts where he went an inning or less. :D

    September:
    11.1 innings
    28 hits
    21 runs
    16.68 ERA

    Yeah, let's give him a roster spot.

    What? I still think we can win this game. Don't even think about game 5, that's so far off right now.

    Might as well claim injuries on both of them and replace them.

    Penalty though is the injured guys are ineligible next series.

    Not all penalties are bad.

    Agree unless we tie it late.
