For the A Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 So Snit and AA is staying with 12 pitchers and 14 position players. Thought they would have went 13-13 or 14 pitchers and 12 position players Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The positive thing is that pretty much everyone that you haven't trusted has been lights out in the postseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknøwn Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 I wouldn't worry too much about Wright. He'll fill that role Dylan Lee had in the NLCS. Things not looking so great you can use him for a few innings and give the key guys a day to catch their breath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things not looking so great you can use him for a few innings and give the key guys a day to catch their breath He could also be another opener candidate if Chavez has to be used early in the series. Wright actually finished the season really strong with Gwinnett. He was the league ERA and strikeout leader, and in his final ten starts he had a 2.30 ERA and a .207/.257/.293 batting line against. If all goes well he won't be a factor at all, but if needed to provide bulk innings he should be more prepared to do that than Jacob Webb.

And are they good breaking ball hitter They hit everything well. They lead all of baseball in runs. They don't murder right-handers like the Dodgers though, but they also aren't as susceptible to left-handed pitching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLBham Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) I really like the Wright move. Honestly, I'd prefer to send Wright out over Ynoa if we need to. I just realized Ynoa is out of the season. Well, my point still stands if Ynoa was still healthy. Plus Wright had playoff experience. One stellar and another big yikes. But he still has experience. I like it. Edited October 26, 2021 by ATLBham falconsd56 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
