WHICH pitcher should MAKE the PLAYOFF ROTATION?

good Thursday morning everybody JN and Lance along with Abigail here this morning Dell still lazy lazy uh here for the next three hours on ESPN 975 and 925 and I know yordon hit three homers but he's the interview after the game by Julia and not Eric Getty I mean yeah Eric Getty was the star of the game no he's not yordon hit three home runs uh you took a no hitter into the eighth Eric Eric Getty was great Eric Getty would be the star of the game any other time player of the game three home R Abigail you be the Arbiter of this Abigail is it arag Getti with the taking the no hitter was that the big story or three home runs I mean I think they're both pretty big but honestly I think arag Getti was thank you good night Abigail no Sports apparently you don't you're supposed to say she knows ball she know not supposed to say that yes you are that's the thing oh you know ball she knows ball anytime somebody knows anything now if you if you agree with them they know ball it doesn't even have to be about yeah you know ball he knows ball you know ball she knows ball yeah yeah no no no no no no she she three home run since don't bring brat oh my daughter motty had we had a good argument about brat the day yeah was she she CU I started messing with her because she didn't I like you don't know it you don't know Brad do you you don't even know I'm bring it to Mr GR even said brat Mr Grado says a lot of things that he shouldn't say he does do that yeah he does do that he does I mean three home runs uh he's done it three times in his career time Bagwell and how many times has erti got to the eighth with a no hitter none and if not for them listen were you not pissed they're throwing at yordon he homers then they hit bregman in the head the next pitch and I know and and if bregman is still in there he's got the no hitter wh comes in doesn't play that ball how think about that he he doesn't play that ball because that's a bregman play it absolutely is a bregman play we got to start having a talk about Eric Getty I mean he's a month now Eric Getty is is what do you do in the playoffs now I don't know if the playoffs started today I don't know how you can't start him look at his last this month this month 32 and a third 19 hits seven earned runs he's got a one 195 he's struck out he's leading he's leading the League this month in strikeouts 47 strikeouts and 10 walks I mean he's fantastic so kikuchi's out now ver out no Verlander is not out of who's okay if it's a meritocracy it's not it's not Justin Verlander is not out of the playoff rotation beat it oh my God you would be beheaded and your and your corpse would be thrown about the street and burned you'd be burned alive I what are you talking about thr better it doesn't matter if Verlander is not out of the playoffs realistically who's out of the playoff rotation well if he keeps on giving up five spots he is no he's not he's never out of the playoff rotation this is Justin Verlander you know that so who is you want win don't him or Kikuchi which one's out cuz Eric Getty actually I think he might be more valuable honestly in the bullpen if he can crank it up to get strikeouts like he does out of the bullpen would be huge can you imagine him coming in for two innings yeah and like locking down two innings my god oh rather have him than Presley A Brave right now absolutely no he's thrown better he's thrown as well as anybody can you be a setup man starting in a seventh inning and set it up go 78 for hater and maybe even just 789 789 just keep now that I think it just keep him in there his last two outing shutouts uh he has thrown 14 in a third his last 14 in the third Innings just five hits 17 strikeouts and five walks I mean these are these are and who was it was he got Phillies and Orioles he got Phillies and Orioles I mean the two of the toughest lineups in basball they're not Slappy lineups no they're two of the best in baseball so I mean and and then he had a little bit of a stinker before that had the white side yeah he had the stinker against White Sox and the two great ones before that so four of his last five have been dominant and that was Boston and Tampa they've been yeah dominant performances in four of his last five yeah yeah and he held his own against the Dodgers six Innings just three six three earned runs he gave up a couple bombs but eight strikeouts and two walks against the Dodgers so that was pretty good too so he has been great he's been great yeah yordon listen it was a 10 nothing game his last he Homer he it's great it's great

that yeah that that that is that's kind of a big deal whether or not we're going to hit this week at home although we're a better team right now at home still three and a half up on the Mariners who won yesterday as well uh so the Astros at uh 71 and 62 here's where we go okay 71 and 62 they're three and a half games behind the Royals and they are four and a half games behind the Guardians that's what we're worried about we're worried about the Guardians that's what that's who we're catching forget the Mariners that's over how about for how good Kikuchi I mean uh SP Getty's been this this month Hunter Brown and fber may be better yeah it's crazy 144 Aver average against for framber in four games this month wow batting average against the batting average against for Hunter Brown 179 with a 185 ER Spencer's got a 193 batting average against which is great and a 255 ra this month no his he's got a his his ER this month is 195 oh after yesterday maybe yeah that's probably headed into okay he got a 19 195 this this month um and uh yeah I mean that's awesome this is and and he lost two games he's got a one 195 and he lost two games lost one to nothing to Tampa all that run support his run support is finally well they get 10 for him right which excuse it but he had a run where they got no runs two runs no runs one run two runs when was this just going last month wow yeah
