Bacon Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) 9 minutes ago, -JB- said: We’ve seen Max come out of the bullpen and get shelled in the playoffs. Sure, but I guarantee you this is not what informed Davey's decision, nor should it. Psychologically speaking and in terms of pitching skill, he's ideal for a playoff closing scenario and a couple bad appearances in a long career doesn't change that.

TradeTheBeal! Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Max looks shaky, but gives up 2 runs through 4 innings. Stras comes in and drops the hammer. Done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinfan2k Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 We really don't want Stras coming in on Tuesday if he wants to start game 1 on thursday. Corbin, Anibal would be chosen before Stras if we needed innings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggo#44 Posted September 28, 2019 Author Share Posted September 28, 2019 I think people are underselling Max. He is stuff was good his last 2 times out, K'd double-digits both times. He wasn't giving up rockets or walking 20 people. He had some bad luck, and has a .315 BABIP which isn't sustainable. He retired 17 of 20 Phillies he faced, Brad Miller having a wierd stat line against him. His FIP is lower than Stras, K rate and BB rate are better. I don't think you go wrong either way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeman38 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 One thing needs to happen today or tomorrow: Aaron Barrett needs to pitch an inning. So he can soak in the cheers and love from the Nats fans for coming back. I was hoping Davey brought him in for the final out last night. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@DCGoldPants Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) Worry about today. Cleveland has professional players also and the only motivation now is to not let Washington have a homefield play-in. However, I do think Corbin won't be maxed out today with everyone getting Monday off. I could see him going like 4 innings and coming out around 60 pitches.

He couldn’t find the plate with a crack survey team. If the games mean nothing I’m okay with it, but if anything’s on the line he’s better off cheering from the dugout. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacon Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) Glorious start to this one. Absolutely crushing their starter to the tune of 48 pitches in 1.1 IP and Tony knocked in a 2 RBI double to hopefully get his swing straightened out. Corbin got things started with a clutch RBI single. Edited September 28, 2019 by Bacon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRobi21 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) Home field advantage in our grasp. Would love for a MIL vs STL game 163 tiebreaker. Burn their top pitcher before facing us in the wildcard. Woowwww Parra! Thought he got under it. Just got out!
