The Houston Astros announced Zack Greinke has been scratched from tonight’s start and placed on the 10-day IL due to neck soreness.
Brandon Bielak will start tonight’s game at Oakland. Greinke’s IL stint is retroactive to Sept. 21. Peter Solomon has been recalled from AAA.

Face saving way of not starting him in the playoffs? 
I can’t imagine as bad as he’s been rolling him out into a playoff game, off a lay-off, when you have such better options available.

It's been computer time for quite a while.

I keep saying this, but everybody bitched about goal line technology coming to soccer, but I don't hear anybody bitching about all the goals allowed and not allowed by mistake anymore.

Why in the world would anyone want to put up with fuckery or plain old human error when we no longer have to?

He's been gifted lots of incredible rosters, and still has one pennant. He chokes in the playoffs.

Yep. It’s a silly argument to act like Baker is some sort of great manager. He’s not even above average if we are being honest. 
he was brought in to fade the heat from the cheating scandal. It was stupid. They should have just leaned into it as absolutely nothing they could do was going to work. 
He managed to go under 500 last year and be about 7 wins behind our Pythagorean record this year. He really is an anchor not a booster. 
say the same about Dave Roberts.
