    ...and adding 1 more arm via trade while getting the rotation back to normal.

    rough. Crazy how things can change like that. Hoyt got a huge K, and then on the first 3-2 pitch...Gardner barely got a piece of a fairly nasty slider. Then, garbage pitch.

    Hoyt must go. It's like when Schaub was throwing pick sixes every game. Hoyt gives up grand slams.

    I honestly can't believe he brought Hoyt in AGAIN.

    That's incredibly stupid.

    That's Hoyt, lots of Ks but overall he just isn't a major league pitcher

    Hopefully Luhnow will understand that soon

    Hoyt will hopefully be in Fresno soon. I'd rather see Musgrove down there in the pen than him.

    Feliz pitches differently when it's a clean inning and not having to inherit runners. If harris, giles, Luke or or devo get got I just say oh well baseball. They've earned that. But giving such momentum changing ultimate stress situations to Feliz and hoyt is putting those guys in harms way. Our gm in a 790 interview said one thing he would change about mlb is moving that trading deadline up. I feel him. All that said 2 more games in this series.

    Outside of Harris-Devo-Giles (and maybe Luke), Feiz is the next best reliever. They were all rested tonight, but Hinch pitched Feliz first. If MIke did well, the big guns probably finish the game. MF didn't pitch well, so the "lessers" finished it.

    Keuchel
    LMJ
    Pitcher X
    Morton
    Fiers/McHugh/Musgrove/whoever

    Giles
    Harris
    Devo
    Pitcher Y
    Peacock
    Gregerson
    Sipp
    Feliz/Hoyt/whoever/nobody

    This is what I expect to happen. Things start looking a lot better and more stable at that point.

    Now you bring Gregerson in??? I haven't been the biggest Gregerson fan but he was a better choice earlier in the game when it was closer than Hoyt.

    Feliz was awful tonight, but he is far from trash

    Luke has been good lately also

    Using him today vs. letting Hoyt continue is a question.

    But earlier in the game, Hinch was looking for the K with the bases juiced and 1 out. Hoyt is far superior at avoiding contact...and he did it. He just also sucks. But I get going to someone with a K in mind over Luke
