    Why'd he get the hook? The curve straightened out or what?

    Not a whole lot to go on from this outing.

    Didn't look bad, but didn't look all that sharp either. Given he's made so few starts that's to be expected.

    How his arm responds, and how he looks in his next outing should be more telling.

    You don't say this often but this ump has been on point w his strike zone. Like crazy on point.

    Best guess....He'll pitch 2-3 innings in Game 4 (maybe earlier) of the ALDS if it gets that far.

    If he feels good, see how he does Friday and take it from there.

    Martes needs to start putting together quality appearances. He gets hit far too often.

    I imagine status quo of whatever they were thinking yesterday. If they were planning to start Peacock and Morton, LMJ didn't do anything to convince them otherwise. If they were planning to start him, I'm not sure he did anything to dissuade them.

    Yep. This will be fascinating to see what we do with that 3 slot. Peacock, Morton, and McHugh have all been pretty good.

    Hot take: Martes isn't going to make the postseason bullpen

    Such a frustrating pitcher. And Hoyt coming in this inning can get ugly real quick.

    Some of you are dense. We aren't really playing for the regular season anymore. We are going to leave some shaky relievers in there to eat innings to give our best relievers rest for what really matters - you know, the postseason.
