GDT Fri 7/27 vs Dodgers

We're really about to let Kershaw have a perfect game at the plate.

Venters looked good. Hopefully Snitker isn't planning on using him for multiple innings...

Next inning for the Dodgers: a righty (Machado) a lefty (Muncy), a switch hitter who hits better from the left side (Grandal) and a righty (Kemp)

I'd go with Carle, who last pitched on Monday. But only 1 inning. With a lefty (Fried) pitching tomorrow, I wouldn't burn my situational righty.
 
Hyper aggressive lineups do not do well against guys like Kershaw. He's three moves ahead of our hitters. We could turn our lineup over a dozen times and we'd never get any better swings against him.

Albies cannot touch anything up in the zone on either side of the plate against any kind of pitcher. We watched Chen strike him out on three pitches in the crazy comeback with everything up and inside on him.

It doesn't matter. It's over
 
Kershaw is an amazing pitcher but 66 pitches through 6 is just embarrassing. Shows how dumb our swing early, swing often approach is.

We're playing awful baseball right not. Really, really bad baseball. But we've also had absolutely terrible luck recently too.

Terrible luck since the Facebook game, it seems then. Fixing to be 11-17 since then with no end in sight it looks. And outside of 4 games, it's really been 7-17. Crashing hard. Not all of it is Brian Snitker, although I'd like for him to be reassigned.
 
Carle does his job. 24 pitches.

I would use him a second inning. With a lefty starting for us tomorrow, I would want Carle available for a possible situational matchup in the middle innings.

Dodgers have a lefty (Bellinger), a righty (Taylor), a lefty (Verdugo) and the pitchers spots up in the 8th.

I would bring in Biddle. His last appearance was Tuesday.
