Btw, does Matz have to go out for one more out to qualify for the W? Or could Swanson come in now and he still gets it?

Nope

Matz is already the pitcher of record, gets the win if Cards don't give up the lead.

He is pitcher of record - does not have to go back out.

I'm glad Scott didn't steal. He could have been thrown out.

He's 5-5 on SBs. And Astros suck at preventing them.

Oli should not be encouraged to stop his own running game. Playing for the 3-run HR has its limits.

A lot of people will be eating crow on noots is JAG and should have been traded this season if he stays healthy

Hello Melville

I must've had a dozen arguments w/him this winter over Noot who's the best all round OF'er on this team.

Same here he wasnt alone though a lot of people were on the melville Noot is JAG bandwagon

[CardinalInNC]

Ohhh nooo

It's that dumb hack Fernandez again!!!

Onlyn5 innings for win. You are qualifying pitcher if you were last to pitch before runs were scored so he does not need to pitch more.

We call those types "morons"

Sixth time we have scored in the fifth inning. Two of our best innings are ahead, 6th and 7th.

Become more relative further into the season.

...NOOT..! He might have made Matz a winner today...! Noot is a winner EVERY day, with his batting and fielding... BP gotta do their job now, for the win...

Best all round OF'er on the team.

Just don't try and tell that to melvin

...No quarrel at all with that..! Keeping my fingers crossed that he stays healthy the rest of the season...

[CardinalInNC]

If you're not going to put in Romero, then put in John King instead of RFern

[12xu]

Oli should have JoJo ready for Alvarez.

[craviduce]

Jeebus, Fernandez....that was crushed...foul

He will be lucky if he gets thrown out only <25% of the time.

That's all that's kept him from being an outstanding player CBC.

His advanced metrics are near the top of MLB hitters, he could be an all star if he can just stay healthy.

Noot with the bomb!!!!!

Next question. How long does Matz go.

Matz is done. Pitch count

As you said. But I still like a pitcher in a groove for a few more pitches. And the lead.
