Zach Eflin vs Jack Flaherty

Bad decision to start Flaherty, IMO.  He should get bumped until Houston.

Not unlike starting DL Hall in the pivotal Tampa series last season.

This regime will stick to their process no matter what. No urgency or desire even to go for something right in front of them.

Totally bad decision by management to start Flaherty. That being said, these are the games they have found a way to win over the last season and a half. I don't doubt their resiliency.

Gah, Apple?! In the biggest series of the year?

Yup and it could have gotten Means a start on Sunday

Flaherty is due for a decent game. Hasn't had one since his first start as an Oriole. Orioles win 5-2.

Yeah, just keep it on local tv in local markets just like the NFL does. MLB loves its blackout restrictions though.

Hey, I get to watch this game! I was all set to watch on FOX last night and it was NYY vs. BOS in my area. WTF?

I think he answers the bell tonight and makes people rethink wanting to drop him off the playoff roster

Love the optimism. We really need it.

It's time to put Ced back in the leadoff spot. They need to switch the lineup up before it's too late. I like what Adley has done mostly but he's struggling and needs to be moved down some.

Henderson SS
Rutschman C
Santander RF

O'Hearn 1st
Hicks LF
Mullins CF

Kjerstad DH
Westburg 3rd

Frazier 2nd

Adley is 9 for 45 in September. Gotta get him going. Last night was awful. 

 

As I was posting Chris put up the lineup for tonight. I don't think switching Adley and Ruts is what I had in mind!

I think he should have been moved down further and I don't know why Ced is not back at leadoff by now. On top of that Gunner has been our best run producer so I wouldn't bat him leadoff.

.200 batting average but a .362 OBP and 108 wRC+. Only striking out 8.6% of the time but an incredibly unlucky .179 BABIP.

Hays not in lineup. That corner OF is scary defensively. Lets just keep it real

[makoman]

Mullins has a lower OBP than Mountcastle, Hays, O’Hearn, and Santander this year, among others.

Gotta factor in that he's been hurt a couple of times. We just need to get back to some small ball and maybe getting a stolen base threat at the top would help.
