    Well, Aledmys Diaz has certainly been worthless today.

    I don't get Marwin here, hope he proves me wrong.

    Well, that wasn't predictable or anything.

    Out of Castro, Maldonado, Correa, Meyers and Marwin, Marwin would have been my absolute last choice to hit there.

    Isn’t aledyms due for his late season injury that keeps him out of the playoffs?

    Im certainly not looking forward to him being the opening day SS next year.

    Man, Diaz has been really bad for months. Like he shouldn't be high in the PH order in the playoffs.

    What is A.Diaz playing?!?!?! The last 45 at-bat, he has only 7 hits which = .155

    Dusty didn’t strike out with two men on and fault to advance the runners twice.

    I don’t really get Marwin though. I didn’t get it when they signed him though which wasn’t Dusty.

    See that's how you shutdown a hitter.

    No Dusty just put Maton in and blew the game.

    Josh James should still be on the active roster and receiving more higher leverage opportunities over Maton and Yimi.

    Last 3 appearances for James

    3 IP, 0 H, 1 BB, 4 k

    WHO DID YOU WANT INSTEAD?

    Yimi, Raley, Taylor, Solomon?

    Stanek had the 8th
    Pressly has the 9th
    Bielak is unavailable
    Graveman threw 30 pitches yesterday

    Have to send Siri. Gets thrown out then Tuve is on 2nd to start the 10th. Limit the chance of Bregs who can’t run.
