I assume you meant Cade Povich - he was the original listed starter of this game so I would imagine this is accurate
Hopefully rust affected him, Arrighetti, and Javier (to a lesser extent Javier). Seattle's luck is full bloom with the Astros injuries.
The Mets are so desperate to win I would not be surprised to see Diaz start the 8th inning for a 2 inning save.
And on cue...... They are desperate. And I understand it. The pen is an abject disaster outside of Diaz.
Please don't give up a 2 run HR to a red hot Rodriguez. Ok good. We are golden. We need to flip the script and get this game back in the standings. We can put whatever that was yesterday behind us.
Everything is pointing to that 3 game series vs the Mariners as the deciding factor for who wins the division. I wish we were playing that series in Seattle.
Nobody's ever been sick for 2+ days before with the ~flu/whatever It's obviously a conspiracy by the Astros to keep Jeremy Pena from playing more games, and then he won't get as big a contract in the offseason. It's so, so, simple.
