I had totally given up and written this game off. I’d even started watching David Lynch’s Twin Peaks The return for the 12th time. But I decided to check back in. Whoa!

Hernandez probably looked good because IIRC, he faced 4 right hand hitters. He problem has been that he is being torched by lefthanders - 990 OPS against. He's been decent against RHB (715 OPS against). A pitcher with platoon splits like that is not going to be so attractive with the 3 hitter rule.

I assume the brain trust has something in mind for him to throw to LHB.

He did look good today, but he definitely has issues as 29 teams rejected him.  A.990 OPS against means you're batting practice.  I wonder, though, if this has ever happened before, the last team in the waiver queue (i.e. best record) has ever taken a pitcher everyone else rejected.

I'll feel bad if we contribute to Kelly getting fired as manager, but AJ can always bring him back on the staff here.....and there is no crying in baseball.

Have you seen Kelly mad? The umpires have. The Pirates are prolly afraid of Maddog Kelly. 😆
