If Detmer’s has reverse splits then why doesn’t Grossman bat from the left side. Wait, that’s too unconventional even for baseball in 2023. Maybe one day ….
Nice one. I am not indignant about Carter not starting but there may be a time where he is pinch hit that I might be a little peeved.
Thinking it will be like yesterday and Carter does get in and play a bulk of the game.

Just glad Lowe is down in the lineup

If we win the division I want to face Baltimore or Tampa in the playoffs.

As long as Carter replaces anyone who has been on the 60 day IL since Aug 1 then he is eligible. I believe we have a few players that he can therefore be used as an injury replacement

I thought that Seattle would be eliminated by any combination of Texas wins or Seattle losses totaling 2
And Houston would be eliminated by any combination of Texas wins or Houston losses totaling 4.
As of today
Yes, those are our magic numbers to win the division. We need to meet both of those to win the division.

One of the announcers said it’s good to keep Grossman fresh and I agree with that, so I’m fine with Grossman starting. He can work the count and get a starter’s pitch count up.

We owe some payback on Detmer. He shut up down after we had annihilated the Angels the previous 2 games and that started like a 10 game losing streak.

Hopefully we can get 70-80 pitches and about 5 innings out of Bradford

If there was a guy I'd consider shopping, it would be Lowe. He's reverted back to being just a solid batter, and I could see a guy like Foscue, Crim or maybe Duran offering more production at 1B.
