Scholtens has been in the pen most of the year. He is right handed so our left handed power should do some damage.
The same as yesterday, work him, get his pitch count up and get into the pen.
Kremer has been good, keep it going, and get win #83

Dude has some severe reverse splits. Right handed batters have an .876 OPS against compared to .550 for left handed hitters.
yeah but wait till the O's LH hitters get ahold of him!

Yet in spite of the evidence, here's our illustrious manager, "I want (Adam) Frazier in there against the righty,” Hyde said. “It has nothing to do with Jordan. (Ramón) Urías is playing great defense and trying to get him going a little bit offensively. Can’t play everybody.”
I'm sure he's good in the clubhouse and the guys like him but Hyde is simply awful at matchups and strategy.

Seems like as data driven as this team is becoming that they would have at least put Westburg out there over Frazier. Just kind of baffling.

That’s the front office just as much as him if not more.

I buy that. But why would the FO be clamoring for Frazier over Westburg?
1. Frazier is making more money but its sunk cost. He's gone after this year.
2. Westburg might be a part of this team for a nice run for several years. Might but Frazier sure isn't.
3. The analytics strongly suggest Westburg should be playing tonight.
4. Westburg is probably a better defender.
So just what would the FO be doing here?

It makes no sense but watch Frazier have a good game. Happens all the time especially with Frazier.

Hopefully Scholtens is one of the 4 worst pitchers in the League.
