We’re going to have to pray for a rare stroman meltdown it seems
This will be the game Oviedo pitches an ABSOLUTE gem. 7IP, 0R and Stroman is going to melt down.
We really need to just send down Contreras, bring up a separate relief guy and let him toil down there. We’re wasting him up here… And our clock. Priester would be a good move but I’m sure AAA has some acceptable relief pitchers that we can use.
