In McKinstrey's defense it's probably the first time he has been on third base all season, probably doesn't remember what to do there.

The triple play was entertaining if nothing else.

[oblong]

McKinsey having a good game. 

[kdog]

Given the low bar, Mize didn't implode. That's decent news with the fact that they are doing some kind of bullpen game on Wednesday. The Phillies are a wagon so it doesn't matter either way. These two teams aren't playing in the same league, but don't play the same sport.

Carson Kelly has given himself a decent trade market as a catcher. Decent win for Harris and his pro personnel staff.

He even stopped and looked, and still decided to come home. You can’t make it up.

10 Ks and 19 swinging strikes from Mize and still gets hit around.

It's hard to tell from start to start whether to be encouraged or depressed by Mize's starts. It's really been a mized bag of good and bad pitches.

They've got two more years of control on a cheap contract. Unless he gets hurt again, you bring him back and see if he can ever put it together.

He usually keeps the Tigers in the game. In 14 starts he’s allowed 3 runs or fewer 11 times, 12 if you only count earned runs. That will play as a #4 or #5 starter. He does need to go deeper in to games. He’s only averaging 5IP a start. 

[Motor City Sonics]

But he bats left handed and can play 33 positions and even pitch !

 

He bats lefty

 

He's a left-handed hitter

 

That's good right?

Hinch says they have a game plan against Nola so we'll see how that works out.

Your plans suck AJ

[oblong]

Take this series for what it is.  A no lose chance to see the best team in baseball and some characters. I had sweep penciled in all along. 

[kdog]

 

[UCFKNIGHT]

Time for changes. Scott Harris and AJ Hinch should both be fired. Hinch has lost this team.

[chasfh]

I’ve been gone all night and didn’t see the game. I just looked at the box and, holy sh*t, Casey Mize. 

I just did a query, and Casey Mize is literally only the second guy in modern baseball history to strike out at least 10, walk nobody, give up at least nine hits, and do it all in 4-1/3 innings or less:

This is a very modern baseball thing to do. Nobody could have done this before the last ten or fifteen years, because of how the game has evolved.
