Tyler Glasnow (4-3, 3.30) vs. Logan Gilbert (6-6, 3.43).
I didn't expect yesterday's outcome, not with Blake Treinen and Tanner Scott pitching the eighth and ninth innings (neither of those came easy, but we still eked out a 3-2 win). We even overcame two incredibly shitty plays by Michael Conforto in left field: one, a first-inning missed fly ball that led to the Mariners' first run; and then in the seventh, a line drive that he plays off the wall and threw very wide to second base, allowing Randy Arozarena to reach second instead of being caught dead to rights.
Conforto, who got the start in left field, must be stopped.
He's back below the Mendoza line, btw, with an 0-for-2 performance yesterday.
I also wouldn't have expected us to win a game in which we didn't play Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, Tommy Edman, Max Muncy, or even the injured Will Smith.
This can't be our postseason strategy, right?
