How many times are we gonna hear “jd martinez was an Astro and they let him go” he was never even close to being as good as he is since he left.
So can the Red Sox though. If I recall correctly, they hammered the Rays for 4 runs in the first inning of Game 2. The Rays came right back and scored 5. But Boston still wound up with 14 runs in that game and won.
Might as well let him pitch 90 to 100 pitches. No sense in taxing the bullpen this early in a game where the odds are now against them pretty heavily.
It's been said several times but the offense has to carry this team in the playoffs however long this ride goes.
Well nothing should settle a guy down like giving up a GS look forward to 5 more shutout innings from Luis offense will get us back
I wouldn't put it past the Astros to come back and make a game of this. They need to put some runs on the board quickly, though. If Garcia has to go back out there in 10-12 minutes down 4-0, I feel like it's not gonna be pretty.
I would have said exactly the same if the OP just wrote “I’m in Dallas”, regardless of there being a game or not
probably try to wait at least a couple innings to see what eovaldi has - if he’s on, maybe try to just keep Garcia going even if a little rough.
