This is a great example of a manger's stupidity: 2nd and 3rd, 2 outs. Mattingly walks Jay to face Kozma.
Jay is a .274 hitter. He needs to get a hit to score a run. Kozma's OBP is .326. He only needs to get on base to score a run. Regardless of the outcome, that is a tactically awful decision.

Fox (not FSMW, but Fox proper). It's the Saturday featured game.

I get the ATL game. I have the MLB cable package. MLB.TV and I still can't watch the game. I don't get MLB and Fox. Do they think fans will go ohhh welll I'll just watch a regular season game because its the only game on? If so, how many fans will make that choice?

Westbrook is going to get a second opinion from Andrews (death sentence), and Carpenter felt poorly after his last bullpen session.
Wacha might be the only option left at this point.

Carpenter committed a one out error on a bad hop. Crawford reached. Ellis just lined a two-out double into the LF corner to put the Dodgers up 4-3.

Why don't they send Martinez down and have him get his arm in starter shape?

But I'd be watching the Cardinals on the regional Fox channel, and since I'm not their advertisers are losing money. Brilliant! |

It's not a bad idea, but what do you do for the next month? If Gast is hurt someone has to fill his spot.

Mattingly just double switched Matt Kemp out for Skip Schumaker. Kemp proceeds to dog cuss Mattingly as he hits the pine.
By performing said double switch, Mattingly has now protected the guy who has three hits, three RBI, and has reached base all four times with the pitcher's spot.

who knows? you can't plan on losing all these starting pitching. We have the deepest starting pitching in MLB and we can't just have 2 MLB quality starters just waiting their turn to pitch. We have one but do they want to fire that bullet?

Send Rosenthal down to stretch him out, slowly try and acclimate Martinez for the 8th. Rosenthal's clock has already started, Wacha is on his first year of pitching every five days, and Martinez has devastating stuff.
