    I was making fun of myself for saying before the game that with JV on the mound, it would be a great time to give Diaz a day at 1B

    Don't worry - we'll trade for Lee with our 2 best prospects

    So you don't think Graveman should be left off the playoff roster?

    It's crazy that we scored 39 runs in this series and tucker remained at 99 rbi throughout.

    Correct.

    It's still not optimal.

    Unfortunately, this only emboldens Dusty to make stupid decisions about the lineup.

    Diaz needs to catch 4 of the 5 starters. McCormick needs to be in CF everyday. Not 4 or 5 times a week. Every damn day.

    Let Dubon be a defensive replacement in CF late in games. That's how normal managers get everyone involved (like Dusty alludes to). Let him play second once a week to keep Altuve fresh if need be and/or DH once a week. Meyers the same. Defensive replacement in the outfield and maybe 1 start a week.

    It's not rocket science. You play everyone. It's a win win win.

    As hot as Pena has been, I wish he didn't look so ass those last 3 at-bats. Got to keep the same mindset regardless of the score.
