    Straight up rookie bullpen day or McCullers on short rest for a few innings.

    People get way to caught up in the data - you can tell he's been told to make certain moves throughout the playoffs by the FO that he didn't agree with necessarily and I think Dusty finally said f*** it, there's nothing to lose. If we win tonight it gives the team a little more hope through a memorable moment.

    Maybe that'll be our Dave Roberts stealing 2nd in the 9th moment...

    I just do not see what Yuli brings....it is past time to sit him. Give the matador Toro a chance.

    I’m guessing Framber. Baker doesn’t seem to mind riding him.

    Toro looked broken all year. I'm not saying he won't contribute sometime in the future, but it's not like we are keeping Yuli out there for some near .300 hitter on the bench.

    We are not losing because of 1st base fielding...hitting ? Absolutely is contributing. He is the out equivalent of an intentional walk.

    If he doesn't pitch Framber, then it's just russian roulette. Has to be Framber.
