    1-2-3 of Dubon, Breggy, Tucker worked yesterday. Pena should stay at the bottom.

    Just saw that Maldy was catching France. Why take away another pitcher from Yainer? That tandem has been lights out together. Shaking it up for no reason.

    Or maybe, just maybe, Dusty is ancient and out of touch. More of a figurehead than an actual manager.

    Easy answer

    Maldy is a veteran, vs chas and Diaz are youngsters. Don't think you gain anything out of Maldy being benched. Matter of fact he might get worse.

    Altuve could have been rehabbing the last 2 days. At least he spoke to the press.

    If he's benched, getting worse doesn't matter.

    It would take a Herculean effort for Maldy to “get worse” than he already is now.

    So you’re telling me you really believe Diaz sitting on the bench the first couple months instead of getting reps…made him better?

    but Diaz wouldn't get better / might get worse cause he was gifted playing time.

    I'm saying that maybe Dusty believes it to be true based on his real life interactions with him. We don't know 99% of the info that Dusty knows.

    Why put auto out Pena in the 2 hole? I don’t get it. Pena has to be hurt to be playing this poorly.
