Chris young pitched 6 scoreless innings and struck out 9 in his only post season performance. It was on the road and against the eventual WS champ.

I mean I guess you could roll out morales and his lifetime 7.71 post season ERA.

We were only a month into the Ron Prince Era when that game was played.

let's dig up sandy koufax's corpse and wheel it onto the mound for game 7

Chris Young gives up home runs. A lot. the teams we will play hit homeruns. A lot. Bad formula.

Franklin Morales has given up 1 homerun in 54 innings. That is a GOOD formula.

Cartierfor3 · « **Reply #45609 on:** August 31, 2015, 02:07:13 PM »

I put about 10X's as much stock in performance in 2015 as I do past post-season performance, especially when stats were compiled years ago

sys · « **Reply #45610 on:** August 31, 2015, 02:12:06 PM »

you're being ridiculous, c43. young is a much better pitcher than morales.

Cartierfor3 · « **Reply #45611 on:** August 31, 2015, 02:13:20 PM »

One could make a case pretty easily that only Wade Davis is having a better year than Franklin Morales for our relievers.

Wow. I had no idea his HR9 was that good. It's even better than wade.

Kris Medlen has given up 3 home runs in 25 innings, and I still want him in the rotation.

Morales is 2nd on the team in WHIP, FIP, 3rd in ERA, and 1st in HR/9. His last 7 appearances he has given up 1 hit, no walks, in 8 2/3 innings

so do I. I have confidence in Medlen to avoid walks and get strikeouts. If he becomes a G4 starter in the playoffs, he'll have a super short leash anyway.

i don't know if you could argue that or not, but i do know that you can argue (correctly) that this season is the first season of a nine year career where morales wasn't bad at pitching.

bitb really giving it to Morales for not running to 1st

Today, tonight and tomorrow are going to be long. Days off after a loss are annoying.
