re: DAT 10/19: ALCS Game 4 - Astros (Urquidy) @ Rangers (Heaney) - 7:03ct FS1

Question: Should Framber be allowed to start if there's a game 6? Or should we look to Hunter Brown? Maybe put Framber in after a few innings of meditation or hypnosis therapy.

And yes I know the Astros graded out as getting favorable zones in the first two games just like to poke fun when a guy is this bad
Yes, it is not an anti-Astro phenomenon, it is a home team atmosphere issue
The Twins game in Minnesota was even worse.
It is statistically impossible to miss pitches outside the zone in favor of only one side reaching damn near and over double digit pitches in 2 out of our last 5 playoff games
But we have won both games pretty much going away. The only answer is the baseball gods don't frick around with human frailty

I know he will, but I wouldn't
I'd take my chances with France/Brown combo
What can it hurt? We can't win at home anyway

Probably Framber. But needs to be on a very short leash. Give up two runs and yank him. But that's a risk, he could put runners on the bases setting up a huge crooked number.

I seem to remember us hitting Heaney well on the Angels. This could be another high scoring game. I don’t have a ton of confidence Urquidy can get much swing and miss against this lineup like he got against Minnesota

Very interested to see how Dusty plays the outfield tonight.
Hopefully Uncle Mike is healthy and a full go, but do you start Chas in hopes he gets to see Heaney a couple of times or run Mike out there? I think Mike has to start because he's not only better right now, but it's also a risk to burn your only reserve outfielder early in the game. Hopefully it's just the same lineup as last night.

I'm not an expert, but this seems...good

Last night was fun, especially the winning part. Let’s do it again tonight.

I'm tempted to start Chas with his vs Mike's numbers vs Heaney and his overall stats against lefties. Plus the defense factor with flyball Urquidy pitching. But I think I wouldn't frick with anything from yesterday. Run it back.

It’s 12 at bats over the course of probably 4 years. I trust Brantley in games like this. In a bases loaded 1 out or 2 out situation in this environment I know who I want up regardless of the pitcher handedness

What a glorious board of community leaders

Let's continue to ride this momentum.

Yes, he is your ace, until he isn't.
Short leash, probably.
Disaster start, maybe.
Best option: definitely.

If prime Randy Johnson was out there, I'm still more confident in Uncle Mike to give us a solid at bat. I'd let it roll with last night's lineup.
Saw this nugget on tAthletic this morning. Tonight is our 100th playoff game since 2015. We are 60-39 in that span.
This fanbase is spoiled

Dusty has had no issues playing Dubon over Chas. I feel confident he will validate himself here.
Brantley will be too, IMO
Yed might play LF

In the past, they've avoided using Yordan on the turf here.
