September 6Sep 6 Damn, Nola pitching a helluva game. Glad those flyballs into the sun didnt cost him or the team.

September 6Sep 6 What a treat Nola has been lately. I couldn’t stand to watch him pitch because of how bad he’s been for years before this nice little stretch. Whatever he did or Cotham and him might’ve worked on, whatever it is I’m grateful for it and it truly is shocking to see him turn this around and pitch like he has during his all star year. This team wouldn’t be where they are today without contributions from every one in that starting rotation, where during the majority of the season we only had 1-2 reliable starters and now during the late surge for red October we have 4-5 reliable starters. Just a massive turnaround that I truly didn’t see possible. Well done Nola let’s keep it going

He’s basically useless right now. Move Crawford to 7. I think that helps Stott somewhat because you have some protection behind him as Crawford‘s actually been hitting well. Harder with a guy behind you not hitting well. Changes how they pitch to you. He’s also just had a bad 2 weeks since he got robbed of that HR
September 6Sep 6 Maybe McFarlane shouldn’t be your set up guy and your setup guy Howland should stay as 8th inning guy
September 6Sep 6 This team has no high leverage pitchers outside of Duran. Why didnt McFarlane throw him anything off the plate? He's a known chaser.
September 6Sep 6 Just now, mikemack8 said:Sorry but that’s on Stubbs - you don’t throw a guy like that 7 straight fastballsTbh Stubbs needs to call better at the same time probably shouldn’t be relying on a rookie to be a setup guy. It should be Bowlan. Also Raley should’ve been used prior to this. He has pitched 1 time in 10 days.

He’s pitched one time in 9 days. At some point in time that’s absurd for the fact that he’s actually good and they could use him.
September 6Sep 6 I like the late inning strategy by our bullpen of throwing nothing but fastballs in the middle of the plate
September 6Sep 6 4 minutes ago, mikemack8 said:But yes it was nice of McFarlane and Duran to waste Nola’s great startIssues more your bullpen outside of Duran is not very reliable. Especially when a guy you trade for you don’t use more than once in 9 days. Dave repeatedly outside of 2024 has had crap bullpens or Makeshift. Even 2022 was basically eflin and Suarez being thrown into those roles. Hoping Alvarado and Dominguez could be used every day in the playofds. They needed two arms at the deadline. Got one they don’t use. The other guy stunk even before he got hurt
