Bailey
Arroyo
Leake

Remember the 90's show "Early Edition?"

This script has already been written.

Don't even argue about Leake. He's been garbage since July started. His numbers since then have been right where every other stat has said he should've been pitching. A high 3's ERA with a 1.40-ish WHIP and still the highest BAA against of any starter on the staff. Bottom line, he's too hittable.

I cringe at the thought of having to face a dominant lefty in the playoffs.

1-game playoff in Pittsburgh against Francisco Liriano, the way he looked last night?

I'd play the Pirates 1000 times out of 1000 over anybody starting for STL.

Fuck let's rehash this playoff pitching talk.

It doesn't fucking matter....we have Dusty and Jacoby.

Totally agree. Just one game too, but it's more about it being a bigger magnification of the huge problem.

The magnification is Dusty cannot
win in the playoffs and has been swept multiple times and was the leader of 3 of the biggest 7 collapses in MLB postseason history.

Lefties tonight 0-12 with 6 K....

5 first round exits.

You're preaching to the choir about Dusty. I've hated him since he was with the Cubs, even though I loved to poke fun at how much Cubs' fans hated him.

Cingrani expects to start again on Sunday. Dusty says he's been hiding the back pain for a "few weeks" but it got too severe tonight. C'mon rook...

What was it? Gotta hope Cingrani is OK and doesn't miss time. The postseason should be Latos, Cingrani, and bailey at the top of the list.

I don't listen to what players have to say usually with injuries as they always think they can play. Backs are a mother fucker of an injury and you really do not ever know what the hell is gonna happen
