Pedro would be a better option than Perez/Richards at this point

Hopefully Saturday will be Sale's last rehab start. Houck should be in the rotation
houck is scheduled for saturday but do they send him back down :suds:

Im sorry but that 85% bs was made up. Most of those guys did not get the vaccine

Chapman with zero confidence with his fastball, when he relies on that slider, he's dead.....I told my son if he throws another slider, this game will be 6-5.....A stronger hitter hits that last one out.....that was on a platter and they are all sitting on his slider which is a meatball when he's not on his game.....disaster avoided......

Ball wasn't really carrying last night or it might have been a different result. I did not have a good feeling when Gleyber fell down on the ground ball screen. Felt like another soul-crushing loss was on deck.

Glad it didn't work out that way, but they have got to get Chapman fixed, or get him out of the 9th inning.

I feel like he gotten better lately. Not where he was at in April and May but better than June

His velocity was down and he couldn't locate the fastball for shit.

As good as he is, if all he can throw for strikes is the slider, it's a matter of time until he hangs one.

He's not alone out there. Chad Green and Britton have been pretty average as well.

All that said, only 4 out of the top WC slot, 5 1/2 out of the division. Seems impossible, but here we are.

Best thing about Cole and Monty covid diagnosis is that it happened during a weak part of the schedule. They both should be back around next weekend or the week of 8/16
