    Yes but more worried about turning him around than ringing in a better pitcher who actually would have a better chance of getting him out

    Javier pitched yesterday. Pressly gets the 9th.

    Raley is close enough to everyone else or better that handedness matters.

    It will be pleasant when September gets here and I have the same confidence in Raley that Dusty has. Certainly did the job tonight. Looked tough.

    glad it worked out against Baltimore

    Still think it was the wrong move

    A majority of the guys he would have been pitching against in a playoff series ain’t swinging at that, but glad it worked out

    That’s a quality Dusty looks for in the 2 hole

    He was very lucky against the first guy, but did dominate Mullins. Problem is you can't just face one batter anymore (unless they are 3rd out).

    Who do you love? Stanek and his shaky control? Bielak? Garza?

    Taylor would probably have been a better choice with how he's pitching, but he's got a short track record since the IL.

    Would have stuck with ZG

    Stanek hasn’t been great for sure but I trust him much more than Raley

    As I’ve stated though, glad it worked out
