    Yeah...I said Scrubb.We definitely don't have studs. But I have hated 7.27 & 4.95 ERA with James and Raley.JMO but all this saving arms and strategy...I say you go with your best to close out the game and then would have what at least 4 days to rest.

    Yeah, if any of them did their jobs this wouldn't be an issue. But, you're going to have games like that. I mean, if we do lose this one, it's our first loss in the freaking playoffs and it's game 3 of the ALDS. I'll take that... especially with who we have in our bullpen, and who are using as starters.

    Definitely. And their closer isn’t going 3 so someone else is going to have to shut us out.

    Who is our best exactly? Parades can't pitch today. Our best literally would be Pressley, and what do you want him to do, go 3 innings? Javier has to be there in case Greinke can't pitch this series. We just don't have other options. If you're only point was that Scrubb should have been brought in sooner, fine I'll take that, but saying go with your "Best" just isn't an option because we don't have a best other than Pressley, and he'd have to go 3 innings in your scenerio.

    Yep, not putting him in after the first hit, and sure as hell after the 2nd, is Dusty's worst decision of the season, by far.

    Multi-innings from Hendricks... let's at least hurt their pen.

    Let's go Tuck!

    My only argument with that is, if Zack can't go, don't you have to have Javier to start?

    Maybe I'm wrong in that regard.
