    sure they can be effective starters, but Pineda as the second best starter on this team is coming back from TJ and is clearly on a 4 inning per start limit. Odorizzi has a 5 1/3 inning per start average and Perez is awful and going 2 innings in long relief every 5th day. Even if they can be effective in short starts, 7 out of 10 starts are bullpen games. When Gibson gets some better endurance, 5 out of 10...

    Odorizzi has career 881 innings pitched over 164 appearances (3 of them relief) for an average of 5 1/3 innings per appearance. Betting on Odorizzi to complete 5 innings seems high risk, low reward. Then "when" to me mattered that he was left in to load the bases. It was very clear he lost it right away.

    I'm with you - the rotation outside of Berrios looks pretty bad. Gibson should gain some endurance as he recovers from e.Coli, but at this point woof. There going to need 3 long relievers to get 700 inning from the bullpen.
  4. Richie the Rally Goat
    The bullpen has been bad, the rotation has been worse and imminent for significant worsening. Keuchel?
  5. Richie the Rally Goat
    Baffle and it’s derivatives seems to be the most common word used today in the game thread.
  6. Richie the Rally Goat
    I really don’t want to see Perez in the rotation
  7. Richie the Rally Goat
    situationally it was perfect for Moya... but that’s not an option now is it?
  8. Richie the Rally Goat
    I get the Vasquez question, but I would like to point out. Through the first 10 games here, there has been 3 starts 6 innings or longer. The bullpen has pitched more innings than the rotation. Baldelli has put the rookies in bad situations because the pen is already getting gassed and there’s been how many off days? Baffled Falvey didn’t bring up another long reliever instead of a LOOGY.

    Well crud...
  10. Richie the Rally Goat
    Ok Vasquez, don’t crap the bed

    This one is full of pee sounds, however you can set up a playlist by length. If you want put 8 hours of the sound you like. White Noise Ambience Lite by logicworks https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/white-noise-ambience-lite/id428075504?mt=8

    I hate those ones! My daughter’s favorite is supposed to cat purring. I swear is rhythmic flatulence and I can’t get to sleep due to giggling
  13. Richie the Rally Goat
    Interesting to see Astudillo and Garver starting in the same game back to back. Also interesting to see Astudillo bat 3rd two games in a row. I wonder if we’ll see continued lineup experiments when we go back to AL rules...
  14. Richie the Rally Goat
    Gamecast had an injury delay, but didn’t explain. Can I get help?
  15. Richie the Rally Goat
    he does appear to be the player the Brewers let walk...
  16. Richie the Rally Goat
    this seems to suggest opener is less effective with Odorizzi, as cutting him off at the end of the 5th inning and scheduling a long reliever for the 6-8th innings (stacker concept). Pineda also has pitched well, but hasn't pitched deep. Agreed wit the OP that soon the roster will need additional relievers and length with those relievers. the one inning or LOOGY can't really be afforded.
  17. Richie the Rally Goat
    just picking nits, but stats disagree with you. I do agree with the latter parts of your post. He’s had some down years with the stick for the Twins. They have better hitting options, who don’t seem to be drastic drop offs fielding wise.
  18. Richie the Rally Goat
    IKR! Brock has a very logical point, but dang Castro has a terrible bat, that looks so much worse in this lineup than it did in 2017. Having Garver and Astudillo makes that difference so much more stark.
  19. Richie the Rally Goat
    the sign is in pictograms
  20. Richie the Rally Goat
    Does Castro have trade value? I’d think you could get a reasonable pitching prospect for him.
  21. Richie the Rally Goat
    Austin is the “rule 5 pickup” of 2019?
  22. Richie the Rally Goat
    With Adrianza playing third and Astudillo playing first is Austin ever going to play? What is the point of rostering him?
  23. Richie the Rally Goat
    sac bunt to the third baseman isn’t a sac is it? That’s just trying to bunt for a hit and almost getting doubled up....
  24. Richie the Rally Goat
    Fantastic to see Stewart settle in. I wouldn’t have been surprised if Stewart were pulled after 34 pitches in the first. That’s a lot of confidence in Stewart and it’s great to see the manager get rewarded for the risk.
