[zambonir]

Well this is gonna be a fun test for those of us who love Thomson's bullpen management and think Jeff Hoffman is the best reliever.

And, he gets a cushion!

[kikutaro]

Garrett Stubbs

Foul (92.8 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (83.7 mph slider)
In play, no out (91.8 mph four-seam fastball)

Garrett Stubbs reaches on a fielding error by second baseman Nolan Gorman.

[bkeich]

Yea, if you have 6 starters most likely you have 5 available. We have been lucky so far, but 6 is probably the minimum now.

Just like the slot CB has become a starting position, your 6th starter is almost certainly on your roster and starting every 5th game.

[bkeich]

A 2 run lead is so much more confortable than a 1 run. Who in the 9th? Hoffman? Strahm? Soto?

[kikutaro]

Johan Rojas

Pitcher Step Off
Ball (92.1 mph four-seam fastball)
Garrett Stubbs steals (1) 2nd base.

In play, no out (82.6 mph slider)

Johan Rojas singles on a ground ball to shortstop Masyn Winn. Garrett Stubbs to 3rd.

[bkeich]

Nice game for Rojas

[BostonRoss]

So if before the game you are told that Harper and Rojas would have three hits between them, how many of you would guess that Rojas would have all three?

[kikutaro]

[zambonir]

I don't think that is typically true, I'm just saying, let's see how the next 2-3 weeks go (both Turnbull's performance and Walker's rehab, as well as the health of the other four) before worrying about it. If Walker gets Wally Pipped by an impeccable Turnbull, good problem to have! And one way or another every team needs 10 starters (Phillies needed 11 last year though two of them were Plassmyer and Nelson in meaningless outings IIRC. They were astonishly healthy last year.)

no idea what the Cardinals' pen is like but at least we have some arms left for extras.

[zambonir]

Pache sighting!
