    Fiers is great at MMP, gets beat like a rented mule on the road

    He's good with RISP, great with them and 2 outs

    OPS while pitching with a lead: 1.034

    OPS while pitching behind: .640

    2nd time through the lineup he gets shelled.

    I'd swap him and Feldman next time through the rotation.

    Well, that's what average hitters do... they do terrible against good pitching and tend to feast on bad pitching.

    Valencia looks so much like Jim Edmunds at the plate.

    There's really no excuses... he's had pretty consistent run support all season. Also, two of his most disappointing starts of the year were both at MMP (The last game against Seattle, and the start against Minnesota where he couldn't get through 5 with 10 runs scored for him).

    His stuff is really hard to get behind (as a fan)... mainly because the fastball is his changeup (its only effective when the other pitches are working for him).

    Yeah.... Let's allow Feliz to walk three straight batters and walk in two runs... Makes perfect sense.

    Fiers in my opinion would be out of this inning by now.

    Fiers got the first 2 outs on 6 pitches, iirc.

    Feldman is who I would have gone with. Devenski as well but he has pitched the last couple of games. Feliz has failed and should be coming in throwing strikes better than he has this inning.
