I wonder if after the break AJ will split Skubal and Mize up? As is we go 3 straight games with unreliable pitching, may be better served to break that up.

That’s a good idea.

I’m sure they have some data driven framework for just exactly which style of pitcher should follow which.

Thank God they kept Herr Enns. 

That’s a mean and thoughtless thing for me to say. But it would be even more chicken**** for me to delete it, so I’ll just fess up and admit that this is undeserved.

I don't think Hinch is looking at Olsen and Flaherty as unreliable pitching.

There's no question that Flaherty is having a bad year, but there might be a tiny bit of light coming through the cracks. Flaherty's FIP- is kinder to him than his ERA-; and his fWAR is better than his RA9-WAR. That said, his Statcast and PitchingBot Stuff cards are blue as the sea, dramatically different from last season. 

I do think Hinch is still a long way from bailing on him, although putting some space between Flaherty and Skubal might be a sign. If he continues at this pace, he might end up being the spot starter in October.
