    Really doesn't matter unless they're too nervous to pitch but I don't buy that. Will Harris for an inning there is basically the exact same as Keuchel the 3rd time through the order, on paper. My main argument is that you increase your winning chances by not giving up the out by allowing Keuchel to bat in the 6th. If this game were played with a DH then I leave Keuchel in every time, but if it's an NL game I pinch hit him for Gattis since your chances of creating a rally go up massively.

    lol wrong. the guy wanted Keuchel to be pulled after 5 for Gattis to lead off PH. he was definitely around 55 pitches.

    Could have done better, sure. But regardless of past performance, Kershaw is certainly capable of shutting down an all star line up for any amount of time. He’s just that good.

    These commercials within the game are ridiculous and need to stop.

    Between Dodgers, Chargers, and Rams -- LA fans are the worst.

    Why Beltran just because it’s a right handed pitcher

    "Everyone knows that the Astros got swept in the WS, what this post pre-supposes is...Maybe they didn't?"

    Ugh they showed him again... thankfully it was his back.

    Man Beltran should just help coach. I would have used Gattis

    Well, at least Altuve gets 1 more AB. I would seriously PH for Springer.
