As I see it we lost because of the defensive blunder and our anemic offense but that's just me. I picked Zack because even though this is a coveted job it would help to have the 1 - 2 punch back.
I agree...Just goes to show you when the thoughtful, civic minded owner is no more, this is what you get...too busy dreaming about gay romps at Zarhan's pad probably.
And he pitches a shutout in both games and we win, which is what you hope both of your aces can do at least once in the playoffs. My point is you got the best of him and it didn't matter. Either way, I want him back, but just pointing out something that BZ said and makes a lot of sense.
First, hire me the manager! Then sign Zach and David Price as starters, O'Day as a reliever, and Hayward to play RF. Trade Puig for Aroidils Chapman, and trade Yimi, Crawford and cash for Simmons, Bourn, Freeman and Shelby Miller. Ship Bourn, Gonzalez and cash to Oakland for Sonny Gray. Lineup: Freeman 1B Howie 2B Simmons SS Seeger 3B Etheir LF Peterson CF Hayward RF Grandall C Starters: Claytan Price Zack Shelby Miller Sonny Gray Pen: O'Day Alillan Howell Anderson Ryu Mac Carthy Closers: Kenley Chapman
Fine. If we are playing Dave.... Puig, Urias and Gonzalez out. Stanton in Resign Howie, Zack Sign O'Day, Heyward Peraza SS Heyward RF Turner 1B Stanton LF Seager 3B Kendrick 2B Grandal C Pederson CF
