    So why doesn't Okert pitch the 8th so Sousa pitches the 9th?

    If Sousa comes in the 8th, you're pretty much guaranteeing having to use Hader in what is likely a non save situation.

    Okert threw a whopping 6 pitches last inning.

    What the hell do i know.

    Work with me here people.

    Can't Sousa just finish the game?

    What am I missing?

    Baltimore DFA'd him for a reason he throws hard, but with ZERO movement on his FB...so guys barrel it up and it goes a long way and hard.

    DD

    PS. Fixed the score for you too...hehe

    It hit him square in the side of the ribs on a high 80s changeup. He finished the ab.

    Oh well.

    All that bullshit didn't work.

    Nice going Joe pulling Okert after just 6 pitches.

    Now you burnt Sousa.

    Be better.

    Well that sucks. I would have let Sousa try and get that last out instead of wasting Hader.

    Sousa is probably the last guy, coming off injury, that you want to over-extend.

    Not sure this version of the bullpen has a true multi-inning guy… obviously masked by this team having great starters, a great back end of bullpen, and playing a lot of close games.

    Javier probably fills that role to ease him back in, if no other injuries.
