We just have a strong tendency to come up empty against these rookie/marginal pitchers. Real flat. Ryan was very shaky and looks kind of lost out there at times. I think he hit the wall for this season. I don't know if I'd trust him going forward in the playoffs. Keuchel is pitching his way off the post season roster, and I'm ok with that. Might as well sit CC the rest of the way and hope his foot improves. It's REALLY nice to have MAT back. Awesome catch last night! Lewis makes this team go, but he can't do it all by himself...other guys have to step up.
I had my "widow-maker" heart attack on the morning of Oct 8, 2004. There had to be a correlation between that, and the series with the evil empire. I survived, but the Twins didn't. I want to be around to see another WS trophy.
I'd sure take my chances with Julien, before I'd use Luplow or Vazquez as a PH. The kid will never learn to hit lefty's in the bigs...unless you give him the opportunity to hit lefty's.
Didn't get the start we all were hoping for from Keuchel. I don't know if Floro is going to keep us in the game, but Rocco better keep the pen on red alert.
