    That's when he gets his chance.

    Eventually a team has to go to their unhittable closer and we have to pinch hit for the pitcher, that's his spot.

    Also, I love MLB's cockamamie scheduling: after we just had 2 off days on 1 road trip (not complaining but they were all on the WC) we now get an off day Monday, then 2 games, then an off day Thursday, then play 13 days in a row.

    Oh dear god speaking of shenanigans, yall should read the Austin Statesman article (by Kevin Lyttle, the Express reporter) about Bregman rehabbing in RR...I can't post it because I don't know what my digital password for their site is, but here's the money quote transcribed straight from the paper:

    On this night he was low key talking about visiting fan reaction. There were no trash cans at Dell Diamond, where many in the crowd were Astros fans.

    "I focus on my rehab, it's all good. They can say whatever they want."

    Pressed by the American-Statesman about the most creative taunting he's seen, Bregman replied: "You're trying to get me to say something so you can write an article? All right, yeah, I get it. I've really got nothing. Honestly it's been fun."
