Knew that start was too good to be true

He did his job, get through the lineup once. I was under the impression that the plan was for Elder to face the lineup once and then turn it over to AJSS
 
But if you’re Elder, how do you even face your teammates after that?
 
Also….Ozuna has had 2 opportunities in this game and has K’d both times
 
Well, this one is over. Knew it was gonna be a tough one to win with the pitching matchup. Get em tomorrow and win it back home
 
This all goes back to the deadline when everyone in the fan base and media said we needed another starting pitcher…and AA didn’t get one.

Who was out there to get though?

Montgomery was dealt way before the deadline, we were never gonna land Scherzer or Verlander and Scherzer is hurt anyways, Lorenzen really fell off a cliff after the no hitter, Flaherty has been terrible with the Orioles. Best we could have got would have been Jake Odorizzi 2.0.

Strider-Fried-Morton would have been a fine 1-2-3, but Morton isn’t available. Just be glad we get 2 guaranteed starts from Strider and potentially 2 from Fried and both on regular rest for their second starts
 
Probably not gonna matter, potentially a big run left stranded at third.
 
Just an awful job by Snit this series. The Lineup change in Game 1 and Letting Elder face the lineup a 2nd time. Both awful

Anybody. He banked on injured guys like Wright, Soroka, and Fried. Wright and Soroka are injured and Fried ain’t been the same and probably needs a whole offseason. Plus you had to figure a 40 year old Morton was gonna get hurt at some time.

You’ve gotta give me a name. I would have loved to have landed Cease, but the White Sox made him unavailable.
 
Dodgers spent 1/4 billion to start Lance Lynn in an elimination game. He’s been alright lately but...
 
That was the shot to make it somewhat interesting, but Riley just got under it a bit.

Pulling Nola after 5 would be retarded. That leads to a Nick Markakis 3 run game winning homer
