    ^Oh snap!!

    Maybe save him for Saturday. He's got to be a little fatigued.

    Lance has pitched well @MMP all year (1.86 ERA), so hopefully he keeps it going.
    Only one start vs KC, but he posted a 1.29 ERA in 7.0 IP... with 6 Ks and 2 BBs

    Good points.
    If we win tonight, we go K and McHugh on the road, then McCullers at home with Fiers/Kazmir pitching game 4, then K and McHugh, if there is a 7th game, i don't know about McCullers pitching on the road that game, so our best chance is winning in 6 at home. But, before all of that happens, we need to win today

    Having McCullers go today makes me a little nervous. has Fiers thrown even one pitch in the postseason so far? It's not that I don't like McCullers, it's just that it's a lot to put on the shoulders of a rookie.

    Yeah I know we're up 2-1, but if we should lose this game, it puts us in the position of having to go win a game 5 in KC.

    I believe in our guys, and Lance has done well against KC this year, so here's hoping he slams the door on them today..

    Nervous nervous nervous!

    Hopefully this is the game where Correa breaks out. He's been quiet all post-season... as the guy we dub our best hitter and future HOF, we need him to show up.

    I know that. That's why Hinch is giving him the ball, of course.

    He's a rookie, that's all. I hope we find out he has the ice-water veins when it truly counts, and today is definitely the day to find out.

    If McCullers spots his fastballs on the corners and most importantantly gets the calls he will dominate because his breaking pitches are wicked when trying to catch up to that heat.
