THIS is the game for Grayson

 

Go out there, on the road, against a great offense and secure us a series win.

We definitely have his number.


I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

Still facing a lefty tonight which isn't our best forte. But we have GRod going and he's looking better. Get it done.

yeah I looked that up. As well as all their batting splits. The only thing they do worse against LH vs RH is hitting in to double plays. They do hit a nigher % of GIDP against lefties. So they should have no problem tonight.....lol.

Yesterdays win was again a new high point of the season. Consistently grinding towards at least 95 wins.

Likely because there are more right-handed hitters in the lineup.

Agree, big start for Grayson.  If he pitches well tonight I'll be soon getting to the point where I'm comfortable with he and Bradish as a 1-2 in a playoff series.

GRod hasn't allowed a HR since he came back up. That's been good to see as he wasn't too good in that arena earlier. Also like to see his K/BB improve some. Still throwing too many pitches for my liking although he has dropped down to 16.5/inning since he came back up.

Where are we work load wise with Grayson? Is it a sure thing he will be available in the playoffs?

He's right at his career high, so we'll see.

He pretty much abandoned his cutter which was getting knocked around. Wish Kremer would do the same.

That’s a pretty rough bottom 3 but we’re gonna rough them up again anyway.
