Can’t blame Oli for this one.
Leahy and Matz have been nails and so has the defense.
Not today!

Yes you can. Leahy has been overused this season and his last 6 outings he has given up 12 hits (it was 9 in his previous 5 coming into this one). He’s been playing with fire and got burned today.

Yet he’s used Maton 1 time in the last 10 days. For whatever reason Maton has been barely used lately.

Also he could have pushed Libby another inning with him “only” at 88 pitches.

Oli has overused Leahy, he needs to back off him for a bit, where is Maton?

Ok those are fair points.
Wondered about Maton myself? I’ve seen nothing official from the team on a health issue although someone mentioned something about a “dead” arm.
Curious if true?
