Good to see Abreu and Chas deliver there and give us a more comfortable lead.

So were you going to push Brown to the bullpen or AAA again if people stayed healthy? Who were you going to reasonably add? AAA or part of a 6-man rotation. I think it’s dumb to keep asking rookies to pitch a million innings to help the team go deep into the postseason and then say they’re tired and overworked. The veteran pitchers save you that headache. Right. And we went into the offseason with 5 veteran pitchers in the rotation, plus Bielak in AAA.

How long can this run from Chas last?

Yeah, and they didn’t replace Verlander with a veteran innings-eater. That’s my point. Lance is about as unreliable as it gets. Every time he’s on the mound, count your blessings.

Yes, he fares well against shitty teams Keep doubting him, he will keep proving you wrong. You love to continue to eat crow on Bielak. Look at his game log

How he fared against non shitty teams He beat Toronto and Minnesota. He sucked against Toronto, the Astros won. He did pretty good against the Twins, but unless I am wrong, they’re not that formidable. I know they have Carlos Correa and all.

Who was that veteran innings-eater they should sign rather than rolling with Brown? Eovaldi, Wacha, Heaney, Gray, Rodón, Bassitt, Senga, Taillon, etc.

Why Pressly with a 4-run lead when he's been used a lot? Use Kuhnel or something.
