Luke will be in, he’ll have to lose or almost lose at least one more game before Snitker would remotely consider changing role. I expect Rodriguez to be in and Lee out.

Looking for Cargo’s stats he’s 0 for 20, including 0 for 4 in the playoffs. Adrianna is 1 for 8, Arica is 0 for 3, Contreras is 0 for 1, and Soler is 2 for 13, in the playoffs. Pache has yet to get an at bat, I’d like to see him get a chance, as the other guys aren’t helping very damn much.

I would have let Matzek bat...
That's how sure I was I wanted him back out for the 8th. Thankfully, d'Naud went full d'Naud and saved us.

Rather keep Luke than activate Rodriguez. Rodriguez hasn’t pitched in like 3 weeks. Uh.... Have you by chance watched the games where Luke has "pitched"?

That guys a boob. He’s trying to be funny, but he’s not. The fact is, he knows nothing about either team except the narratives.

Aside from the past two games, hasn’t Luke pitched fairly well this year? How he is pitching right now is what we should be looking at. He's generally been horrible his entire career. He can be lights out for stretches because he does have a great breaking ball at times and can throw 97. But even when he's on he's generally not consistent and I NEVER feel like I can trust him. He's shown a propensity to choke in big moments. He chronically struggles with command, his pitch choice is highly questionable a lot of the time because he wants to thrown 9 sliders in a row, and when he's not on his breaking stuff has nothing on it. These last two games he has clearly had an absolute zero with his breaking stuff. When that's the case he gets his brains bashed in. A sane and rational person would not put him in a close playoff game again.

You just made it sound like he has been mostly horrible, which is not the case. It’s a shame that the 3 run HR to Bellinger affected him like it obviously did. He was so reliable all year long. It certainly would make it easier on the pen if he would get his confidence back. But, of course, we don’t have the luxury of waiting around for that in a series of this magnitude. I am glad that Snit decided to go with him in the 7th with the 3 run lead with Matzek in his back pocket. It would have been more disastrous if Matzek had pitched first and already been pulled and Luke brought in for the 8th. We really need the Luke from the season and the Brewers series or we are going to tax Minter, Matzek and Smith. And who’s to say that the Astros will struggle as much against lefties as the Dodgers did.

While I have noticed that many see stats like his low ERA and forget how many adventures he's taken us on, no; I meant has he seen the last two post-season performances which is what I would be looking at when deciding if he should be on the WS roster.
