ump not helping - but this is frustrating.

Castro is absolutely useless

Castro is absolutely useless

No way he's on the October roster. If my math is right, the last spot is Pache or Wilson

Playoff roster is 26, max 13 pitchers

So if it's 13 pitchers, the 13 hitters would be

- C Realmuto
- C Stubbs
- 1B Harper
- 2B Stott
- SS Turner
- 3B Bohm
- INF Sosa
- DH Schwarber
- OF Rojas
- OF Marsh
- OF Castellanos
- LF/1B Cave
- Final spot is either Wilson or Pache

They could take BOTH in the 3-game wild card, when 12 pitchers is probably sufficient.

But they'd definitely take 13 pitchers in the Division Series, if they advance.

Can we trade Castro for his uncle,Fidel,who,though dead is a better hitter

As I am sure you know - teams wanted to sign Fidel in the early 50s

Not getting any help elsewhere today

Wheeler being at just 66 pitches is great. Hopefully they can get at least 7 (if not 8)

I did know that but at that time most teams already had too many lefties

[FolesMVP09]

20 pitch inning - so 8 is out. Hopefully he can have a clean 7th

Need a few more runs to make it Covey proof

Brewers just scored 4 in the 6th to tie. What a difference a year makes. Last year at this time, we were rooting for the Marlins to beat the Brewers

[Christopher]

I'm OK with removing Wheeler with 86 pitches and a 4-run lead.
