Top 4 hitters went 11/19. Good to see.
Would anyone object to just not starting Lance in the wild card? He is so bad away from MMP..Grienke, Valdez, Urquidy...Javier long relief and I guess Lance too..let's ride

I'd definitely rather not have Lance start a deciding game 3 if the Astros get to it. He's been solid last two times out, need to see it again tomorrow on the road before I'd trust him.
Frambaw has more than earned a look at starting one of those games along with Urquidy. I am absolutely terrified with how Dusty is going to manage those three games

Somebody convince me Lance as a late inning reliever in a 3 game series isn't part of the best roster make up. I'll wait.
Aside from the suddenly Jekyll and Hyde offense, the weak point has been the bullpen. Though I'll grant them they've been better lately. In a 3 game set, obviously Grienke is starting, Framber has been our most consistent pitcher this year, he deserves a starting spot. Then if you get to a game 3, that's the question mark.
I can be sold on the idea that Lance has a ton of big game experience (ALDS v Royals, ALCS Game 7 v Yankees, WS Game 7 vs Dodgers) and he's feasted on those big moments. So maybe you want him starting, even before a game 3. But if you go Grienke and Framber, I feel pretty good about Urquidy being able to go 5 innings and then turn it over to the pen. If you work backwards from then pen it's..
CL Pressly
Setup Enoli
7th: Raley/James/Scrubb
We're gonna add in Javier to the mix but I keep thinking about adding Lance to the backend of the pen to go 1 or 2 innings and setup Pressly, and frankly if he's on he'd have some of the best stuff in the pen. Just a thought, I think that potentially strengthens a weak point of the team but who knows if Lance would even be on board. A starter wants to start and you would be sacrificing one of your most experienced playoff starters in favor of q guys with a total of 1 playoff start between them.
