Honestly would've just went with Cowser there. He probably KS too but Mountcastle has no chance.

Cowser is the king of Ks

This team is hanging on by a thread with all the injuries. Just brutal losing 3/5 of your rotation to TJS.

Better chance against RHP than Mountcastle.

Doubtful. Mountcastle is the better overall hitter.

A genuine losing streak. Gotta pull out of it.

This team always bounces back. Not remotely worried. I’m annoyed though. Should be able to get to the next two Cleveland starters though.

4 runs in the last 3 games. Two solo HRs from Westburg saved them from being shut out in Houston back to back games.

They have to survive til the break. Said before a .500 month would be ok. Think they are still 2 or 3 over for the month. Have to be realistic about what we can do in trades though. I figure we can get 2 quality arms. Anything more is prob more like what Fuji was last year.

Yeah well they get Irvin tomorrow. They arent exactly scared.

Irvin and Rodriguez isn't exactly a tough match up for Cleveland, either.

Probably the most annoying stretch of baseball this team has had since Adley arrived. Only a 4 game skid but just feels brutal.

Please stop sending Ryan O'Hearn out into the field. His butchering of a grounder down the first baseline proved to be the difference tonight. 

 

He's a platoon DH. Das eet.

Well, I’ll buy Cleveland’s pitching and especially their D. I’ll sell their offense all day. Playing over their heads. Need to get back in the win column tomorrow.

Can we also give up on trying to survive with Urias/Mateo as starters? Fine with them on the bench. Get Mayo up here.

Using Mountcastle there was a mistake. Yes he's the better overall hitter compared to Cowser. But so what? Mountcastle wasn't going to tie the game. He gets a hit and you still need Cowser. But Cowser might have tied the game with one swing. Easy call to me to go Cowser there.

I liked the idea of Cowser driving somebody in, but I wouldn't have sent Mounty up to get on base. 

 

Should've been Hays. 

 

TBF, Mullins missed a game tying HR by what, 5-6 feet?

Hays might have had the best chance to get on base. Mountcastle and Cowser are both striking out.
