Calm Down, Stanek....you're killing me here

[Charles King]

Buckle up...Stanek time. 7-9 hitters

Someone has to step up in the pen
I don't know who

All have been shaky lately
Even O'Brien

Good news is some team in that game has to lose, I think. Seems neither one EVER loses.

I don't know. You just got a clean inning from Stanek. You're playing with fire asking for 2 innings.

I wouldn't want to burn thru the closer or another reliever....BUT...and this is the kicker....he has to face Chourio, Turang and Contreras with a 4 run lead. Maybe score another run or two to help him out?

I hear you, and if he gets into trouble O'Brien seems to be less effective coming in with runners on, but I can't see wasting Stanek's good outing after only 7 pitches.

yup
barring a rain out or loss of electricity or some such, one has to lose
