Strider just ain't that guy. I wasn't impressed with his body of work this year. Wins is a nothing stat. He led the majors in strikeouts but he also had a near 4 ERA. His season didn't stand out to me. Fried is the better, more reliable arm when he's healthy.

But even then we are down to two starters. That needs work for next year.

I don't think this offense will score another run tonight either. Their whole approach is garbage from inning 1 of game 1. They had a brief stretch in game 2 where they looked like the offense we saw all year.

Why the gameplan has been to hack away and keep hacking, not working counts etc. don't understand it.

With this lineup it's simple chop the head of the snake (Aucuna) and the body dies.

You stop Acuna, Braves can't get anything else going.

I cannot be mad at the pitching, they've kept us in these games, but our hitters just not showing up.

You expected a no hit shut out against a blazing hot team in the playoffs? Strider ain't prime Pedro Martinez but he is damn good.
