Agreed. I like how leyva is helping transition into the final third and often getting guys the ball in space. But really need to find a second before RSL finds a way back into this

I'm not any happier about it than you are

Think this is the frame AFTER contact and the heel is still back. I complained live but I think he timed it well.

No. Was at G1. Will be at G4 Thursday

I'm not sure I get that unless they think woo can be ready for G2 but not G1, and they like Miller more than Hancock?

I'm not sure I get what scenario makes Miller the best option. If he goes 1, are you just back to Kirby or Gilbert for G2?

The caveat here is if Wilson and co have reason to believe one of those two will be more useful in relief. Like if they think they can start Castillo and go to Kirby later but Castillo simply can't relieve? Fine. But all things equal, gimme Kirby

Gimme Kirby over Castillo

I have been in stores in Portland recently. They exist. Have windows and everything.

This is just a crappy knock off of the ice cream nachos my kids get at T-Mobile Park. It has less ice cream, no chocolate ice cream, and no dipping sauce. Lame.

I don't get going to Sabrowski here. Didn't you go to a RHP for the bottom of the order and have Sabrowski for Carpenter through Greene whenever that happens?
