Is pitching starting to dominate around the league again? Have they got a new substance that is not detectable? Are they going to talk lowering the mound or moving it back again??
8 in a row!!!! Only 2 hits... But or pitching continue to dominate the rays. They only have 4 runs in the last 5 games against the Astros. No game have they given up more than 2 runs. . Crazy.
As Buck said, Caratini could have PH for him. I think Espada is trying a last ditch effort trying to get Chas going by telling him he believes in him. Also why I think he started again after last night.
Should change the rules and give Hader both a win and a save in this one. He earned and deserved both.
Arizona is now at 5.3 runs per game. While I think the tide is turning to some degree to the pitching side, it's not to that extent that you're describing.
- 8-game winning streak (season-high and first time since May '23) - 10 games above 500 (season-high) - 2.5 game division lead (season-high) - Astros win with only 2 hits (opponent only had 2 too) - Hader was a cotdamn multi-inning BEAST - Blanco only throws 73 pitches (load management) and we win. Hopefully no injury - 8-1 road trip
I had this same thought the other day. Especially with the new extra inning rules. You deserve a save.
Kind of like Tari Eason of the Rockets; went on injured reserve, disappeared from the face of the earth.
