Matt Kemp is out for playoffs

Was just coming to post this. I say we throw every pitch low and inside to Puig after he smashed all those balls off his ankle the other night. Besides the fact the guy kills outside pitches and that was the only place we wanted to pitch him earlier in the year.
 
Hanley has been banged up a lot lately, sitting out a lot of games recently. He'll be in there starting in the playoffs, but his back issue could definitely hinder him.

His ankle isn't well enough to play in the field. But they might activate him and use him as a pinch hitter.

Looks like Skip Schumacher will be the center fielder.

Knowing our luck Skip Schumacher will be the Cody Ross of this post season.
 
I wanted to avoid playing the Dodgers because of their starters, but they havent been playing well at all lately. With Kemp being out, and Ethier a question mark, my confidence is up that we can beat them.

Just gotta make Kershaw, Greinke, and Ryu work. We have guys that strikeout a lot, but we also have guys that can put runs up on the board quick, so it will be a interesting series to watch.

Strikeouts are our secret weapon for driving up pitch count. Need at least 3 pitches for a strikeout.
 
I'm assuming he's all world vs Meds, Kimbrel and Minor? Not shocking with our luck. Some douche on that team will come out and hit like Chipper in his prime against us. My guess is either Schumacher or Uribe will be the guy. Just the way things always work out for us.

We have Elliot Johnson to counter that.
