Autumn Dreamin

Hendriks sitting around 94mph pitched a clean 9th. PO, ꓘ, grounder past the 1B that Sanchez nabbed for an off balance throw than Liam hustled to snag at first. Charlotte pitching gave up just 1H, led by the banker with a final line of 5.1IP, 1H, 1R (0ER), 7K on just 65 pitches.

Per DVS, the goal is a Friday return.

Ah, the routine "screwed by the umps" PA for Luis...

AV is such a RBI machine, man.

85mph, .420 xBA.

Whatever they ate last night, eat that forever.

Oof. He also may have been injured again covering first for a play, he was pulled after trainers came out.

Through the 7th on 8 pitches, including two 3 pitch K's.

The stated plan for this year is long-ish relief. Which hasn't changed from the stated intentions during the off season. Get him some longer outings, and presumably see where things stands after that for a viability of a Kopech-like transition.

He threw 2IP today FWIW, 34 pitches.

Clean inning from our favorite Aussie. Pop out, ꓘ, ground out to short. A bit wild, but that's not too surprising. And the Knights break up the no hitter, so there's that too.

Liam taking the mound in Charlotte...I'm not tearing up, you are.

Mena doing Mena things: 6IP, 3H, 2ER,11K Mini-Gio and the Banker continue turning in solid starts in Charlotte too.

Sosa was 3-4 with a double before getting pulled. Maybe coming back up for Burger if he's hurt? Colas is 2-4 with a walk. No K's for either.
